The Marriage Jolt Experience
You and your partner are both busy professionals. This 2-month program respects your time and your intelligence with targeted sessions.

Session 1:
Shock Your System
Finally name what's been wrong instead of tiptoeing around it. You'll both walk out knowing exactly what's been creating the distance—and why your current approach isn't working.

Session 2:
Learn to Breathe
Learn to bring up difficult topics without your partner shutting down or getting defensive. You'll discover how to say what you really mean and hear what they're actually trying to tell you.

Session 3-4:
Stand in the Spotlight
(Individual sessions, one per partner)
Figure out your own patterns and what you're really asking for. Sometimes you need to process privately before you can communicate clearly with your partner.

Session 5:
Find Your Rhythm
Practice responding differently when old triggers come up. Instead of falling back into avoidance or conflict, you'll have new ways to stay connected even during difficult moments.

Session 6:
Emerge Renewed
Lock in these changes so they stick. You'll know exactly how to maintain real connection in your busy lives without slipping back into roommate mode.

Most couples try to ease into change slowly. They hope things will gradually get better without having the difficult conversations. But let’s get real. You’ve been trying that for a while, and it’s just creating more distance between the two of you.
The Marriage Jolt takes a different approach. We dive straight into what's been blocking your connection. It's intense, and even painful. But it works — and it works fast. You learn how to navigate difficulty together instead of tiptoeing around each other.
Like coming out of a cold plunge, you emerge more awake, energized, and clear about what you want — and how to create that life together.
The Cold Plunge Approach
Just like a cold plunge, transformation happens when you're willing to lean into discomfort for a short, intense period rather than avoiding it indefinitely.
