FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About the Committed To Connection Retreat Experience
We would love to attend this experience, but we do not want to talk about our problems in front of the group
No problem! We do not ask participants to share about anything personal. Couples sit at small tables together and only engage quietly together. We give everyone enough space to allow privacy when interacting with one another. There is no group work, and no mandatory sharing.
Should we read The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work before attending?
It wouldn't hurt but is not necessary. The experience is self-contained; no pre-reading is required. Just bring your willingness to learn!
Is this group therapy?
Absolutely Not! This is an educational workshop. There will be no treatment for any challenges with any individual or relationship constellation. This Retreat Experience is cultivated to be the Masterclass on what makes relationships survive and thrive!
