Discover the Real Work of Relationships…

 
We know that relationships take work, but few of us know what that work actually is…

The real work of relationships isn’t occasional, it’s minute-to-minute.

And this workshop will teach you those critical minute-to-minute skills that build and sustain true intimacy.

By the end of the two days, you’ll have the skills to:

  • Override your knee-jerk reactions in heated moments to navigate conflict calmly.
  • Break free from the losing strategies that block you from enjoying true intimacy.
  • Complain without blame and get more of what you want from your relationship.
  • Encourage, not discourage, your partner’s efforts, and celebrate progress.
  • Let go of the battle of who’s right and work together to find a solution.

Join us for this transformative workshop to learn the powerful relational skills you need to create the deeply connected relationship you yearn for.

How the Relationship Bootcamp Has Helped Others

“Terry Real’s Boot Camp was life-changing for me and my husband. We’ve been together 30+ years so it’d be fair to wonder what would we possibly have to work on. My love-avoidant, grandiose man said this shifted our relationship to a deeper, more loving level; his love-dependent, grandiose wife agrees. The Boot Camp weekend opened up new ways to talk, to see ourselves and to love each other.”

— Sarah P., Portland, OR

“My wife and I both found RLI’s workshop to be exceptional, and well worth the time and effort to fly to Boston. I would recommend it highly, particularly to couples having communication problems. RLI’s approach is unique, but common sense, so it is easy to understand and, hopefully, to apply.”

— A.M., Toronto

“The couples work that you do is so valuable — we are relating now in a wholly new and expansive way. It’s what each of us knew we were missing but could not have found on our own. Thank you so much!”

 — Tod, Boston, MA

“For therapists doing couples work, the Boot Camp is a great chance to see a compilation/distillation of RLT skills in action, plus a great way to do your own relational work. That last part was valuable beyond measure and has shaped my work as a therapist and partner in powerful ways.”

— Sarah P.

“I have found that most couples really want a relationship that works for both people and they have no idea how to make that happen. Once they learn that implementing a set of learned skills can achieve their goal, the majority of couples are willing to do things differently. They become empowered to change!”

 — J.G., Dallas, TX
