Pillar #1 Communication & Conflict Resolution
Here you will learn how to talk to your partner and how to listen to your partner. When you and your partner argue about an issue, you never feel heard, understood or validated. Your words come out in a way that your partner reports that they feel blamed, shamed and judged. That’s gonna stop after this weekend. You are going to learn how to be an active speaker and an active listener. This is by far the most life-changing technique we teach couples. If you left the retreat after this particular communication lesson, you technically would have all the communication skills you need to never argue again-just follow the map we give you. This is vital in having a functional long term relationship. However, although learning how to speak and listen to your partner is a crucial foundation for your relationship, it isn’t enough. You need to be able to resolve a difference of opinion. Whether it be in finances, family decisions, sexual intimacy, roles and responsibilities or parenting (just to name a few) you will face conflicting opinions in your relationship. The conflict resolution portion of the retreat will teach you how to practically navigate this when you and your partner are at a standstill.

Pillar #2: Personality & Value System

Pillar #2: Personality & Value System
Interestingly, enough, what attracted you to one another in your personality, also has put you at odds and assuming the worst about each other’s motives. You may have been exposed to personality assessments through your education or career. You received some letters and an explanation that you don’t even remember. But here we will teach you personality in a way where you can truly understand how uniquely you were created; and why certain things excite you or upset you. Not only that, but you will learn how to quickly assess personality in your family and peers within your circle. Most importantly, you will have an understanding of your partners personality and how it impacts their value system. Most of the time couples think their root problem is a communication issue. However, the root issue is usually a value system conflict, which is poorly communicated. We teach you what you need to know and give you the tools to address it.

Pillar #3: Intimacy & Connection
Sometimes couples find that although they don’t argue often and seem to function well in their roles, there is an emptiness still present. The sexual passion you once had when you were dating has evaporated into tasks, roles and responsibilities. It feels like a business transactional relationship instead o
Pillar #3: Intimacy & Connection
Sometimes couples find that although they don’t argue often and seem to function well in their roles, there is an emptiness still present. The sexual passion you once had when you were dating has evaporated into tasks, roles and responsibilities. It feels like a business transactional relationship instead of a romantic intimate relationship.
Here’s the thing: Your relationship operates like an intimacy bank account, which may currently be in the red. Our program equips you with the necessary skills to restore balance and maintain a positive status in that intimacy bank account. By understanding your partner's love language and reducing emotional withdrawals, we will empower you with practical steps and a clear roadmap to transform your intimacy levels across physical, emotional, sexual, and spiritual dimensions by the end of the retreat.

Pillar #4: Trauma & Triggers
The scars of past traumas from former romantic or childhood relationships linger within both you and your partner, shaping your current dynamic. You both carry these hurts into your current partnership and it has direct influence on how you interpret your partners words and actions. Additionally, the wounds inflicted in your present relationship further contribute to the way you perceive each other. Whether it be facial expressions, voice, intonations, the way something is said, or specific behaviors, this is the reason you can become so easily triggered by your partner.
Many couples don’t realize they are having what almost feels like a “post traumatic stress” response to their partner. At the Garden of Eden we equip you to reset these ingrained automatic negative thoughts. You learn practical tools to fight so you can begin to experience your partner through a new lens. We show you what realistic forgiveness looks like in a long term relationship; and how to move forward past deep hurts.
IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE
You're walking on eggshells all the time. You don't feel emotionally safe. When you voice a relationship concern, or express needs, it sparks a civil war in your home. Discussions easily flow through the extremes of shouting matches or just shutting down and isolating. Conversations often result in blame shifting, defensiveness, mistrust, and resentment.
Let Mike and Kim help you. With a combined clinical experience of over 40 years, Mike and Kim have become leaders in their community providing life changing couples coaching. Garden of Eden Couples Retreat provides a classic all-inclusive retreat experience with abundant amenities set in the picturesque Poconos of Pennsylvania.

It’s estimated that the true cost of a typical divorce is between $50,000 to $100,000. This doesn’t factor in the emotional, mental and spiritual wounds that come from ending a life long family commitment. This doesn’t have to happen. Your relationship CAN SHIFT DRAMATICALLY. You may be surprised to know that most of what you are struggling with is not a partner issue, but an information issue. You need to be equipped with knowledge of WHAT to do and how to do it. Mike and Kim are specifically trained to teach you what to do. Please look at the social proof in the reviews!
