Relationship Lab

Welcome to Relationship Lab!

Emotional connection is key to creating a strong, intimate relationship, yet most people do not know how to connect emotionally. In Relationship Lab, we teach you the language and skills you need to connect and stay connected!

✓ Get and stay on the same page

✓ Experience security and trust

✓ Feel positive about the future

If you are:

Lonely in your relationship, i.e., you do not have enough emotional or sexual intimacy
Losing hope that your problems can or will improve
Not sure what to do next or where to turn
Financially constrained

Relationship Lab is for you!

Don't give up and don't settle!

You may have tried one or more of these things that didn’t work:
– Dulling your pain with substances or activities
– Professional or pastoral counseling
– Marriage enrichment courses
– Self-help courses, books, videos, podcasts, or webinars
– Simply settling for living with the problem

We have a different approach

– We know that emotional connection is the key to a strong, intimate relationship or marriage–but very few people have been taught how to connect with someone else emotionally
– We teach you how to be a safe place for others and how to productively process your emotions–this results in having an emotional connection with your spouse or partner
– We believe that learning to connect emotionally is a journey, not an event
– We have been on the journey long enough to teach others, but not so long that we have forgotten what it was like at the beginning.
– We know what it is like to feel “stuck” AND we know how to get “unstuck”!

See what past clients have to say!

Don’t take our word for it–here’s what other clients have to say about our coaching.

The kiddos were sick last week and then got me and my husband sick so we dropped the ball on doing the emotions wheel. We hopped back on and then fell off the wagon again. And I told my husband that I literally cannot handle it when we stop being consistent. I’ve felt so deregulated and separated from him on the days we don’t do it. I had no idea just how much it was helping me to feel connection and regulated!!!!!!

One of the biggest differences that Jeanie and Jeff made is giving us the tools to navigate our emotions. Growing up in two different families with different dynamics, from two different cultures, it was so important to have the right conversations about our childhoods and how they affected us emotionally. We learned how to use the emotions wheel and how to properly have difficult conversations. We were able to see our blind spots and receive advice on how to handle conflict from Jeanie and Jeff. We enjoyed hearing personal stories from Jeff and Jeanie and being able to connect with other couples who are on the same journey. We would highly recommend Jeanie and Jeff to every couple. They are honest and authentic and genuinely care about helping people have healthy marriages.

Jeanie and Jeff really helped us to engage with each other and have conversations that we normally wouldn't have. We were able to better understand the hurts that we experienced when we were younger as well as our triggers, fears, and insecurities. We can now talk about things we otherwise wouldn't talk about. If I had to rate this for others on a scale of 1 to 10, I would give it a 20. It was everything we needed. It gave us the tools, it gave us the language, it gave us the preparation that we needed to be able to walk into marriage confidently.
