Is This For Me?
The Sessions
In each workshop, we explore the relationship context we have been using successfully since 1980. We share openly about what has worked for us, including how we circumvent common stumbling blocks.
Our approach is fun and conversational, not prescriptive. We demonstrate how our relationship tools work, and you can use them or not, as you wish.
We encourage active participation and answer questions throughout each session, and you are never required to share anything you don’t want to.

Is This For Me?
We have shared these tools and techniques with couples who are relatively new to each other and those who have been together for a very long time.
Some are in great relationships and want to make them even better, others feel they “have to do something different — or else,” and many are somewhere in between.
Regardless of where your partnership is now, you’ll get to discover the kind of relationship you might not even know is possible, and learn how to make that dream a reality together.
DO What Works For You

OUR APPROACH
We have found that people want to hear the real, personal, and intimate stories from our 45+ years together. We include the positive, the negative, and the “iffy” situations, without pretending they are about someone else. From our big wins to our lowest lows, and all the hurdles we have jumped along the way, we give you the full picture of our magical relationship so you can take what works for you into your own life. We answer questions with absolutely no topic off-limits. And while we encourage active participation, you’re never required to share.

- How to make requests, negotiate, and make counter offers

About Us
Josseline

Josseline
If you'd have seen how I grew up — the difficult marriages I saw at home and all around me — you'd understand how the relationship I have now did not seem possible. Together, Joseph and I have developed a context for a committed relationship that disregards all previous molds. Inside our relationship, everything is possible. The commitment is a freeing up, not a closing down of options. The expansive context is the "bowl," the all-determinative space in which everything else resides. What's the "everything else?" Many many simple (but sometimes deep) techniques, tricks, shortcuts to a result. We look forward to sharing it all with you.

My parents were holding hands as we pushed them in their wheelchairs at their 70th wedding anniversary. I didn't successfully mimic them in my first marriage and I sometimes wonder how I was lucky enough to end up with Josseline. I have learned much from her about grace and elegance and how to communicate with compassion and empathy for the other person, and that is core to our ability to share openly and honestly about absolutely everything. Our relationship is often easy, but sometimes we disagree, and I get angry or fight, and knowing that our commitment to each other is absolute allows me to be patient until we work our way through it. The reward of people telling me our relationship discussions made a contribution to their lives is what keeps me doing this.

What People Say
"While my husband and I have a great relationship, I also am a firm believer in doing everything I can to make it the best possible relationship. Having known Joseph and Josseline for years, I finally asked how they had created such an exemplary relationship that simply exudes love, trust, and respect. When they mentioned they were doing a session on video, I immediately said “sign me up!” In only 90 minutes my husband and I learned tools and strategies that have already made our relationship more respectful and loving. I highly recommend these sessions to anyone who wants to improve their relationship with a significant other."
· Viveka von Rosen
“Imagine living with someone free of judgment. Someone who inspires you to think, yet encourages you to be heard. Imagine someone that encourages you to make mistakes, and laughs WITH YOU and reassures you when you feel foolish. Imagine imperfection is the norm, even when you try to be perfect, yet the imperfection is what’s appreciated. Imagine someone to help guide you, and to help you remain focused on the things that matter. That’s what I see when I’m with Josseline and Joseph.”
· Ward Simmons
“They may not have a 'secret sauce' for their marriage, but Joseph and Josseline have managed to find some special ingredients that enable them to face their issues, respect their individual and joint ‘wholeness’ and still gaze adoringly at one another. Their intelligence, self-awareness and willingness to communicate honestly with one another is admirable and rare. I believe they may have some ideas that they can share to help OUR hearts beat a little more quickly with our partners.”
· Susan Sachs
"In my marriage, joy was the first casualty. I wish we'd had access to an uplifting, long-standing example of how couples can nurture and celebrate their joy. Joseph and Josseline exemplify the practice of small acts of kindness. It's not about private jets, fur coats, or diamonds, it's about sweet thoughtfulness, listening without defensiveness, and deep respect for one's Other. THIS power couple lives their words."
