Just because you love each other, doesn’t mean you’ve learned the communication skills you need to connect…

”I’ve never seen a couple look at each other the way you two look at each other,” our wedding photographer said.

We were high school sweethearts and crazy in love.

Then life caught up to us. Melis was new to farming and worked long hours, often coming home frustrated. And we had 5 kids in 7 years.

We were drifting apart.

And neither one of us knew how to communicate very well.

Until one date night, I said to Melis, “I can’t do this anymore!”

He looked at me with panic and said, “What do you mean you can’t do this anymore?”

“I can’t do marriage like this anymore! I’m so tired. And I’m so hurt.”

He really heard my heart. And for the first time in a long time, he shared his heart with me too…

We recommitted to each other that we would get the help we needed to close the emotional distance that had crept into our marriage.

That pivotal conversation changed everything. We fell back in love.

And it was the beginning of learning key communication skills that now help us to get back to connection quickly no matter what life throws our way.

For over 20 years now, I’ve been on a mission to equip Christian women to communicate confidently and clearly so they can create a closer connection.

Because I believe that if I — a stay-at-home farmer’s wife — can learn these communication skills, then you can too.

I’m on a mission to equip Christian women to communicate confidently and clearly for a closer connection.

Good communication is part of the foundation for every strong and healthy relationship. But unfortunately, as Christian women, most of us don’t learn the healthy communication skills we need to build strong relationships.

It’s a struggle for us to communicate effectively because we feel like…

our voices don’t matter
we want to keep the peace and not cause conflict
we want everyone to be happy
we are communicating but it’s not working for some reason
it’s so hard to say no and we feel guilty when we do
communication should come naturally

Here’s the good news — communication is a skill so anyone can learn it. That means you can learn it too.

When a Christian woman learns how to communicate confidently and clearly, it has a positive impact on every area of her life…

That’s why for over 20 years, I’ve been equipping women with communication skills to create closer connections.

I’m a Life Coach, Speaker and Trainer with 4 Better 4 Ever, which I co-founded with my husband. I’m also a certified John Maxwell Team coach, speaker and trainer.

I’ve been married for 41 years to Melis and we have 5 lovely children and 11 beautiful grandchildren. For fun, I’m an amateur photographer and I love capturing nature on my beach walks.
