I am looking forward to this coming weekend where for the second time I will be collaborating with the trainers at a virtual couples workshop called the Art and Science of Love. These 2 days are filled with engaging presentations and experiential activities designed to confirm, strengthen, or restore a couple's love. This workshop is shown to achieve results similar to those of 6 months of marital therapy. It has produced positive results for 94% of those couples who attend. Can't wait! Soon I will be able to run my own Art and Science of Love Workshop

The Art & Science of Love Virtual event, designed by John and Julie Gottman, will teach you how to foster romance and connection.
