The key to creating a divorce-proof marriage is practicing healthy communication.
Research shows that communication struggles are the most common factor that leads couples to divorce, followed by inability to resolve conflict. With current home shelter restrictions in place, couples and families are spending more time together in confined spaces. Now more than ever, it is important to invest in the relationships at home, beginning with the most important one...your marriage.
Join Marcus and Chauntel Simmons, in a refreshing discussion on healthy communication in marriage. Some unique points they will cover include:
- Respect and kindness in communication
- Leading by listening
- Fears in communication
- Ground rules for healthy conflict resolution
This unique opportunity provides a male and female perspective as Marcus and Chauntel offer practical ideas, techniques, and share from their own experiences on how to nurture a safe and trusted relationship with your spouse where open communication is comfortable and welcome.
This online experience includes a 1 hour session with Marcus and Chauntel and Q&A time.
Together, we will invest in developing healthy communication in marriage, and family.
