The Reason I Became A Helping Professional

Unlike other relationship experts and authors, we have taken a fresh and positive approach in determining that the best way to understand successful relationships is to study successful relationships throughout the world.  What we have learned is that you can’t understand success by studying failure--you learn about success by studying success.  We focus on what’s right about relationships and marriage, rather than what’s wrong.

Through our many blogs, books, articles and interviews, we try to provide inspiration and guidance to readers around the globe.  Our positive approach and research findings have lead to hundreds of worldwide media interviews including on NPR, FOX, NBC, CBS, ABC, CBN and FamilyNet, two PBS Specials, and the Lifestyle Magazine Show.
