What Is YOUR Love Language? I’ve been working with couples for twenty years and a big part of my work is to serve as a “translator” for the couple.  It often seems that they don’t speak each other’s language. The issue seems to be much more than the simple “men are from Mars, women are [...]

Would You Want To Be Married To You? I know that this might appear to be a strange question, yet I’m serious about it!  Would you want to be married to you?

Interviewed by the Booty Doctors! I recently had the privilege of spending an hour on “The Booty Doctors” radio show.  These two women are incredible life coaches who are there to empower women and to answer relationship questions from men who are confused by their women (aren’t we all at one point or another?). We [...]

Do You Have A Relationship Role Model? So many of the couples and singles that I conduct relationship counseling with, complain that they had poor role models for relationships growing up. Dad was an alcoholic or mom was depressed. They fought all the time or they only argued behind closed doors. They never showed affection [...]

What is the 80/20 Rule And Does It Apply To Relationships? I completely believe that 80/20 Rule applies to relationships!  I’ve written a little bit about the 80/20 Rule in my previous post, “Don’t Talk So Much” and now it’s time to elaborate more about how it specifically can be used to enhance your relationship.
