because you both deserve to feel heard, safe, and loved

To calm, connected communication and a more secure, thriving relationship.

feel more connected, appreciated and desired In less than 4 weeks

This self-paced program is your essential toolkit for navigating the challenges of communication, emotional tension, and disconnection in your relationship. Whether you're feeling misunderstood, reactive, or simply unsure how to move forward together — this guide will help you shift from survival mode towards a more secure connection in just 4 weeks or less.

In just 4 modules, you’ll be guided through four transformational sessions combining video instruction and practical, easy-to-follow PDFs. You’ll learn to:

  • Move from tension and triggers to grounded, calm communication

  • Shift from confusion and disconnection to shared clarity and direction

  • Feel seen, heard, and deeply understood — even in conflict

This is the foundational work we wish we had a decade ago — the strategies, frameworks, and nervous system tools that took us 8+ years (and a lot of money and trial-and-error) to fully embody.

Is this for us?

the guide is for you if:

  • Want to deepen your connection but “life” is busy

  • You still love each other but lately it feels more like co-existing and surface level logistics

  • You miss the way it used to feel when a simple touch or glance made your stomach flip

  • Share a home but feel distant

  • It’s not that things are bad, it’s just that they are not good

  • You sense that a “stale-mate” energy is stopping connected intimacy

  • Struggle to understand each other

  • Find that communication needs attention

  • Are willing to put time and energy into the relationship

  • Trust has been eroded

  • Want help before things get worse

Don’t just take it from us…

Before: “Our communication was terrible. We would have big fights and go days without speaking. We even brought up the D word on several occasions.

After: We have open and clear communication, which has helped us to understand each other immensely. We both feel secure in our marriage even when times get tough. So much so that we are renewing our marriage vows next week, to mark our 10-year wedding anniversary!

Rory and Katie were at a crossroads after 9 years - Katie said she often felt unseen and an underlying tension lead to frequent argument leaving them both feeling alone and invisible in the relationship. After learning one of the proven communication strategies in this mini-course, they describe their renewed connection as “finally speaking the same language.” Instead of spiralling into blame or shutdown, they now know how to pause, really listen, and express themselves in a way that brings them closer — even during conflict. Rory says, “It’s not just that we argue less — it’s that we actually understand each other now.” For the first time in years, they feel like a team again.

Before: “We were both stuck in a little bit of a lost space where we had both forgotten how much we meant to each other.”

After: We are soo connected and more in love than I have ever felt - we have so much more respect - understanding and love for one another. Our fun is back in our relationship and we are both very happy and now have tools to keep us this way forever xx

What You'll Learn

A note before you begin

Most couples who complete The Relationship Survival Guide experience powerful shifts — greater clarity, calmer communication, and a deeper emotional connection. This course offers real, practical tools that will lay a strong foundation for lasting change.

That said, it’s important to know: no single course can fix every dynamic or heal every wound.

If you’re noticing unresolved resentment, recurring conflict, or deep emotional pain that doesn’t shift — even with new tools — this is often a sign that deeper healing or guided support is needed. Sometimes, survival strategies and long-standing patterns need more than a short-term solution.

This guide is one pillar from our full 12-week program, The Reconnected Union, which is designed to take couples from disconnection and frustration to secure, thriving partnership. If you’re ready to go deeper and want to truly transform your relationship, we’d love to support you with our full program or 1:1 coaching options.

 FAQs

  • Each session includes a 20-minute video plus optional integration practices in the downloadable PDFs. We recommend setting aside 45 minutes per week to watch, reflect, and apply the tools — but you can go at your own pace with lifetime access.

  • Yes! While it’s powerful to go through it together, many clients begin on their own and still experience significant changes. When one partner shifts how they communicate and respond, it often creates a ripple effect that benefits the whole relationship.

  • This course offers foundational tools that can create real, lasting change — but deep wounds or long-standing patterns may require more in-depth support. If you’re dealing with persistent conflict, resentment, or trauma, we recommend exploring our 12-week program or 1:1 coaching for deeper transformation.

  • Great! The full cost of this course can be credited towards any of our future programs or private coaching — so your investment here becomes part of your journey toward a thriving, connected relationship.

How we got into our work as

couples connection coaches

When we say our journey has been transformative, we truly mean it.

Our narrative is one of authenticity, resilience, and the unwavering commitment to building a love that stands the test of time. BUT…At one stage, our relationship was teetering on the edge of a cliff, and we had no idea how to clamber out of it.

Back in 2005, our story began on the conventional road paved by society - education, full-time jobs, a home, and the joy of starting a family. Yet, as the years passed, the subtle drift in our connection led us to a crossroads. Like many, we faced the highs and lows that relationships bring, questioning the very foundation of our union.

We unknowingly slipped into a power struggle. Our honeymoon phase felt like a fleeting memory leaving us to blame each other for not meeting our needs. At times it was childish. Tensions rose and had an ugly consistency to it. The cycles of arguments became frequent, the time in disconnect became longer and we felt so alone yet trapped in the nightmare together. A weird paradox.

Our “fork in the road” was upon us. We could have turned away from the pain and started afresh.

Instead of succumbing to the challenges, we chose a different path – one of personal and relational growth. Our commitment to understanding each other propelled us into a transformative journey. We invested time, energy, and resources into studying and learning, deepening and connecting, emerging stronger, happier, and more united than ever. We stood at the ledge of a decision and chose not to abandon ship but to build a ship that could withstand any storm.

Now, drawing from our own experiences, we stand united with you as a dynamic duo, offering a harmonious blend of male and female perspectives. Our mission is clear: to guide couples towards profound connection, intimacy, and love. We have meticulously crafted a signature program designed to breathe life into relationships, creating a ripple effect of positivity that extends beyond the couple to benefit the entire family and community.

This is your invitation to join us in a journey towards a relationship that is connected, compassionate, and deeply fulfilling.

We have gone through distance, pain, struggle and stress in a 20 year relationship. We then mastered our relationship reconnection over many years and distilled it down to three simple pillars that now guides so many couples to a union that is overflowing with fulfilment and is unbreakable in its foundation.

  • “Amy & Michael are a powerful duo who hold space compassionately & reverently for people to meet themselves & gain practical skills for healing & living their best lives. These sessions have made a significant impact on me, highly recommend.”

    - SARAH

  • “I really can't thank you and Mick enough. This course has set me back on course…it has taken me where I wanted to go and done what I wanted it to do. I have done a lot of this before but it has been wonderful to recapture, revisit and reinforce!! I'm loving it.…..I'm in a fantastic space right now.”

    - JULIA

  • “I would recommend the deep dive to any new mums whom are struggling with a foggy brain to find clarity and meaning in the everyday for themselves. Amy and Michael's strategies helped me to connect on a deeper level with my daughter and find an overall sense of calmness and develop healthy boundaries and expectations of myself as a parent.”

    - NATALIE

  • “With the help of the Deep Dive course I now have the tools and confidence to truthfully answer questions concerning my needs and wants and what will serve me in the future. I have found and developed interests that align with my values and beliefs and had the confidence to not let obstacles stop me from moving forward with them.”

    -TRISH

  • “I am noticing that I am a calmer and less reactive person, the open heartedness that I developed during the Deep Dive course is also serving me to be a more understanding and empathic person but to still have the confidence (self worth) to maintain my own boundaries and to be OK with saying NO! It is an empowering and amazing feeling to be true to yourself”.
