- Your spouse had an affair and you are struggling to recover, or your spouse is refusing / reluctant to end an affair
- You are worried about your spouse's friendship with another woman or man, but your spouse won't end it
- Your husband is having a midlife crisis / you have less intimacy with your wife and feel her drifting away
- Your spouse is defensive; won't be transparent or accountable
- Your marriage has lost its passion, warmth and good humor
- You are frustrated by your spouse's self-focus or indifference
- You've made mistakes in your marriage or behaved poorly toward your spouse, and need to regain their trust and love
- You don't need / want psychotherapy; you're looking for an alternative or adjunct to counseling
- You need detailed, specific ideas - not vague generalities - and you prefer a plainspoken or "blunt" discussion about issues

- You need a "secret" way to make your spouse change
- You prefer no religious content and don't want any upselling
- You want private, accessible help that fits your lifestyle
- You are willing to consider unconventional or "hardline" strategies if necessary to make a change

I stumbled upon your program less than 48 hours after I found out about my husband’s year-long affair. He was stubborn and refused to end it. I was almost in hysterics, thinking I wasn’t young enough, slim enough, pretty enough. Your voice calmed me down and got me thinking straight. I had my doubts that a program like this would work, but I decided my marriage was worth the risk. I listened to your advice and did what I thought was best. He ended the affair at that point. Your course helped me see there were many reasons the affair happened, and my husband and I are now working together for a better tomorrow. I often re-listen to you to regain focus when I need to and still rely on the material. Thank you for saving my marriage. – Iris

Were they in love with each other? I’m not sure. If they weren’t, it was getting there. She couldn’t go more than ten minutes without checking her phone, and if I said anything – look out. The fight was on and it was always my fault. I feel like I caught it just in time. The most surprising thing to me has been how ending that friendship has given us a new beginning as a couple. There’s a more mature and united feeling to “us” now and you were instrumental in getting us there. – Josh
