Even if your relationship by most outward measures is a “success”, there are almost certainly issues or conversations you wouldn’t dare bring up to your partner in fear of making things worse or destroying your marriage. Perhaps it feels easier, and even safer, to maintain your current patterns rather than risking new, more uplifting, ones.
Is this at all sounding familiar?
The truth is, many couples resign to mediocrity rather than reach for excellence.
And not because you haven’t tried to make things better or grow as a team – because you certainly have!
You’ve gone on trips, implemented a weekly date night, or tried any number of other behavior-based modifications you read about in an article. You may even have been on retreats and enjoyed fleeting improvements.
While these steps are positive and even encouraged; alone they don’t suffice in reshaping your thinking – which starts deep within the actual biology of your brain.
Unfortunately, many new beginnings quickly take well-worn paths back to old habits.
And, as repeat behaviors resurface, you end up feeling more discouraged, rather than reconnected.
During these disagreements, you know that the same broken dance is about to begin and you probably feel powerless to stop it.
If you have felt this pain, you’re probably ready to try almost anything to avert that same destructive conversation you’ve been having for years…or possibly even decades.
After years of neurobiological research, practical experience, and direct coaching with many incredible couples, we know that relationships can be improved, often dramatically.
Good communication between partners often hinges on the empathy, respect, and compassion of the listener. So when we bring our assumptions, our judgements, our resentments, and our past hurts to the conversation, disconnection prevails…every single time.
But it’s possible to turn the tide. And it begins with knowing this:
A vital relationship starts with understanding the science of interpersonal connection and it thrives by learning how to better relate to one another as loving partners.
It’s possible, not only for that couple who seems to have it all together, but for you, too.
Rekindle your relationship during this weekend-long experience that unlocks authentic communication, stronger conflict resolution skills, and newfound peace and joy.
Over the course of the weekend, you’ll learn intimately and accurately about your partner, as well as yourself. Together, you’ll put an end to destructive cyclical patterns and repeat arguments, and will learn powerfully uplifting insights and practices to acknowledge, reinforce, and inspire your partner.

Although a couple in deep conflict will undoubtedly benefit from this powerful approach, the Unstoppable Couples retreat is not designed only for couples in crisis. You can read more below to learn whether this experience is right for you and your partner.
No. Couples in all stages of relationships are welcome.
To keep the retreat a cozy and safe space we limit attendance. Only 5–8 couples participate.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided on both days. Dinner is not included as many couples take that time to connect after the full day. Accommodation is not included with the cost of the workshop, however we will do the best we can to negotiate group rates with nearby hotels.
Please wear relaxed, comfortable clothing. The experience is about nurturing deep authenticity in your relationship, and we want you to be at ease throughout. Don’t forget this is Southern California, so you may want to bring your sunscreen. Taking a beach walk together during the breaks is encouraged!
