A Relationship Revolution: The Guide You Need for the Connections you Crave
A NEW VISION OF RELATIONSHIPS
Modern relationships are evolving. Gender roles are shifting. And yet, love, connection, community, and belonging remain some of the most complex yet compelling human experiences.
Through speaking, coaching, and thought leadership, my mission is to share the essential skills for creating strong, fulfilling partnerships in today’s world.
MY WHY: UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGE OF MODERN LOVE
Like many people, I entered my first serious adult relationship without a clear roadmap for what a healthy, thriving partnership should look like. I grew up with parents who functioned well together, but the relationship model I saw in their marriage wasn’t one I wanted for myself. I knew what I didn’t want, but I wasn’t sure what I did want—or how to create it.
When I met my husband, I was fortunate to also find a great therapist who helped me understand my attachment patterns, emotional blind spots, and learn the skills I needed to create true connection and safety in my relationship. For the first time, I realized something I had never been taught—that love alone wasn’t enough—healthy relationships require intention, emotional awareness, and the skills to navigate challenges together.
That experience changed everything. It set me on a path to help others do the same. In 2014, I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and since then, I’ve dedicated my career to helping individuals and couples build strong, deeply connected relationships by helping them create their own unique scripts for lasting love.
MY APPROACH: CHANGING THE CONVERSATION
The relationship scripts many of us inherited were built for a different time—one where relationships were primarily function-based. Marriage and partnership were often about survival, economic stability, and social roles rather than deep emotional connection. But modern couples want more. They’re looking for relationships that don’t just function but truly thrive—partnerships built on emotional connection, mutual growth, and shared meaning.
This shift requires new skills and a modern relationship roadmap. That’s where my work comes in. I help individuals and couples bridge the gap between outdated relational models and the deep, connected partnerships they’re seeking today.
One of the most foundational insights I share with my clients is this: relationships tend to be either function-based or connection-based.
-
Function-based relationships operate on mutual need—partners rely on each other for practical support, but emotional depth may be missing. These relationships can work for a while, but when a partnership is built solely on function, it often leads to loneliness and disconnection.
-
Connection-based relationships are different. They prioritize emotional safety, trust, and intimacy. They require intention, self-awareness, and relational skill—but they also bring deeper fulfillment and lasting love.
The challenge for many modern couples is transitioning from the function-based scripts we were given to cultivating the skills for deeper connection.
That’s where the real work begins.
