It is common knowledge that our loved ones challenge us the most to stay calm, compassionate and openhearted.
No matter how much spiritual or personal growth work we have done, inevitably we get stimulated by something a loved one says or does and we lose our capacity to communicate with compassion.
But these are the times we need our compassion the most!
The Compassionate Communication Course will significantly improve your relationship communication. It will give you skills and increase your capacity to be congruent with your value of showing up in a calm and compassionate way with the loved ones in your life.
This course lifts you out your ineffective communication grooves and gives you a new framework from which to communicate where you will experience peace, harmony, and a deeper connection in your relationship.
Specifically, this course will help you to:
- Speak up for what you want in a way that can be heard. There is nothing more empowering than to be able to know exactly what is true for you in any given moment and to express that to your partner in a gentle non-blaming way so he/she can hear you.
- Listen in a way that your partner really feels heard: People who think they are good listeners are surprised by a new level of empathetic listening they learn in the course. Empathetic listening is a magic invitation for the other to respond in kind.
- Transform judgment and criticism into understanding and connection: It is not enough to say to ourselves or others, “Stop judging!” You will learn a viable alternative way to express yourself that will replace the judgments and criticisms. You’ll also learn to hear judgments in a new way.
- Improved sense of emotional and physical intimacy: What’s the first thing that goes when resentments build from poor communication? Yep, physical and emotional intimacy…the lifeblood of a relationship.
- Both get what you want more often without using demands, guilt or shame: Granted, guilt, demands and shame “work” to get someone to do something for us, but at what cost? Resentful compliance? Reluctant giving? Silent Defiance? You’ll learn to request exactly what you want in a cleaner way that will inspire the other to want to give to you.
- Adopt a new communication framework that moves you beyond power struggles to cooperation and trust: There is a tremendous amount of relief when you can get to the level of trusting each other to want to come up with solutions that you both feel good about.
Sometimes in your relationship, you don’t get a sense of being heard (which is frustrating itself), but deep down, you’re afraid this means he or she doesn’t respect or value you…
…and that’s the part that’s painful.
The Compassionate Communication Course will significantly improve your relationship communication and give you a steady sense that you’re respected, that you matter, and are loved.

Quite simply, what is it worth to you if you resolve these issues?
- Money Issues (How much is made and spent; who spends it on what, financial infidelity)
- Sexual Differences (frequency, ways to satisfy, decreases in sexual desire or drive, and fidelity)
- Communication (not enough, the way it is done)
- Time Spent Together (Amount and quality of time, who to spend it with)
- Intimacy Issues (Emotional intimacy, availability differences)
- Lack of Commitment (“follow through” with agreements)
- Children and Step Children Issues (how to raise)
- Unequal Need Fulfillment (One partner getting all their needs met at the expense of their partner)
- Jealousy and Control Issues (insecurities)
- Household Chores (who does what, fairness)
- Families and In-laws (conflicts, personalities, etc.)
Your return on investment comes either as a decrease in frustration, disappointment, or hurt in dealing with ongoing issues, or it comes as an increase, in intimacy, connection, or effectiveness… or both!
If the course helps you resolve even one of these issues above, it is worth it. But the reality is this course has the potential to resolve ALL the issues above once you learn the principles.
Just imagine the relief you’ll feel the in knowing your communication with your partner is easy and you can honestly talk about anything.
Right now you may not believe it is possible, but that’s because you’re coming from a mindset that doesn’t include the Compassionate Communication skills.
We give you the vital tools necessary for you to honestly express what is going on with you, and to connect with what is going on with your partner. We coach you to foster this mutual connection in such a way that many long-standing problems are calmly resolved.
We CAN make this a reality in your relationship!

"Find out how we all unconsciously respond in ways that block the flow of compassion, understanding, and empathy."
Some of the most common comments I get from people around week four of the course are this:
“I wish I had learned this years ago; my life would have been so much easier.”
“If I knew this information back when I was married, I probably still would be married.”
“I wish they would have taught this to us when we were children.”
This is the point where participants have the profound realization about how to speak differently, and they see this compassionate way has less wear and tear on their soul.
Sadly, many single people who have taken the course realized they could have saved their prior relationships or marriages that ended had they known and used these skills. Don’t be one of these people!
Poor Communication In Your Relationship is Not Yours or your Partner’s Fault!
I’m sure many of you have tried and tried to communicate differently on your own. Maybe you’ve gone to therapy, done lots of personal growth work or made lots of effort to change how you relate to your partner with little or no results.
I would guess you might have ended up blaming yourself or your partner. But please let me assure you…
There is no one to blame!
Why? Because here’s the critical thing that most people overlook: We can consciously want to change the way we communicate, but our unconscious communication habits are emotionally based and have kind of an immunity to change. They win out most of the time over conscious intention unless deeper learning is enacted.
And this is NOT your fault nor your partner’s fault, it is just life. Once we realize this we can take responsibility. But taking responsibility is not assigning fault to yourself/partner nor blaming yourself/partner, it is positioning yourself to learn from your mistakes.
We all want to be heard, to have ease and loving connections in our relationships; the problem is, we all have learned a way of communicating that is entrenched in an ineffective framework; or we unconsciously respond in ways that block the flow of compassion, understanding, and empathy.
So we need to learn something new.
That’s why I designed a comprehensive Course to support people in transforming their communication on a deep level for lasting results! Please join us to explore this new level of connection.

It’s Never Too Late To Invest In Your Learning
Ask yourself this question: When laying on your deathbed thinking back over your life, do you want to recount all the disconnecting times you were “right and others wrong?” Or do you want to reminisce and cherish the sweet, mutually satisfying connections with loved ones that you experienced?
I think the answer is obvious.
