Our relationships are the most fundamental need underlying every aspect of
our lives. When our relationships suffer, we suffer. Unfortunately, we are held
prisoner by our beliefs. Changing our beliefs about relationships and about
ourselves will forever change our lives. But first - we have to know what those
beliefs
are!
Relationship coaching is about prevention or preventative
maintenance, if you prefer, and learning new skills. Studies show that most couples wait until after six
years of marriage before seeking help, and often the damage is irreversible. And
guess what else? People who were unhappy in their marriages were often just as
unhappy after the divorce.
Are you single and looking for an ideal life partner?
Are you ready for a healthy, loving relationship? If you
discover that you are not yet ready, what work do you need to do on you? How is your
relationship with yourself?
What do you want from a relationship? What relationship skills
do you have?
How will coaching help? Coaching will: 1. Help your
determine if you are ready for a relationship. 2. Help you determine what your
core requirements for an ideal life partner are - these are the deal breakers.
3. Help you determine what you need from your life partner - these are the
issues that can be resolved. 4. Help you determine what you want from your
partner - these are the smile makers! Coaching will also keep you accountable to
your core requirements.
Are you a couple who would like to develop repair strategies for dealing with
conflict BEFORE conflict damages your relationship?
Waiting until conflict occurs before having a repair strategy in
place is like being in a car with NO steering wheel. Drive a car long enough
without a steering wheel, and you will crash! Plan
ahead. Be prepared. Your relationship with your life partner is the most
important emotional attachment you'll ever have.
How do you discuss emotional cycles in your relationship? How
do you handle periods of withdrawal (and these always happen)? How do you bring
up difficult issues with your partner? How long do you leave issues on the table
before dealing with them. How long does it take before unresolved issues begin
to fester?
How will coaching help? Coaching is about building on the
strengths of your relationship. Having a coach during the initial
stages of your relationship is like having a financial planner early in your
adult life. Planning for future relationship events is no different, albeit just
as important, than planning for future financial events.
