  • How she decided to stop waiting for her husband to change, and took her marriage into her own hands to create the relationship she was longing for

  • Her most important decision moment, when she made the choice to take the lead and guide her husband into change, whether he was interested in working on it or not – and now they’re both reaping the rewards!

  • That they had "read all the books, done all the courses, studied psych, and this program is not that". They share what's truly "unique, special, and meaningful" about the program that had them bawling in the first 3 days and got them to where the other methodologies couldn't.
    • Melissa and her husband were in a relentless cycle of disagreements and resentment building up over years, with nothing ever getting truly resolved.

    In this interview she shares:

    • After being married 26 years, Pieternel and her husband separated and weren't sure if they would be able to reunite. She was trying to learn to live alone and felt maybe she could find peace with that, but decided to give the marriage a big last shot.

    A few weeks later he moved back in and they reached a whole new level of vulnerability and connection. While still 63 years young, she shares here the depth and importance to her of achieving her dream of becoming the wise woman she desired to be before she dies, and the becoming the relationship role model she wants for her son.
    Lynn and her husband were living separately after 26 years of marriage due to years of resentment and tension that built over decades and was never truly resolved. She felt betrayed and her husband felt he couldn't be what she wanted and he may be happier living alone.

    Here she shares how she was able to release the anger and resentment and heal, which enabled her to create a new dynamic with her husband that allowed the love, appreciation, and connection to return. They now have a new level of depth in their relationship where they can share at a deeper level and resolve issues to create connection rather than avoiding them and building resentment.

    "I am so thankful to you for helping me get out of my rut. So much has changed in my life, I am the happiest I have ever been with my relationship and my music career, and I really have you to thank for that!”

    – Charlotte, Musician, Mother
    Phillip
    "My partner and I were facing a few issues in our 15-year relationship, and were ambivalent about seeking help--would it be a waste of time, a waste of money, or even make things worse between us? I'm so happy we found Shena.

    Thanks to Shena, my partner and I are back on track, stronger than ever, and ready to take on the world again together. We cannot praise Shena highly enough, and would happily recommend her to anyone seeking help with their relationship. Thank you Shena!"

    - Phillip, Artist

    "I recognized patterns in myself and my partner – and realized I have the ability and control to change them.

    This workshop is beneficial for those who need a reboot for connection. I definitely recommend it!”

    - Smitha, Marriage Therapist
    "We began the class going through a difficult transition, and we ended with a newfound sense of purpose and direction. I entered with very little expectation, and I had a life changing experience. The class was transformative in real time, I found myself using the insights gained in the teachings right away.

    I can't recommend the work you did enough to everyone that matters in my life. Shena is an intuitive teacher, thanks a million for being such a wonderful human being. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

    - Leo, Digital Creative Design
    John
    "Shena rates an 11 out of 10. When I first began with Shena, I was really on a downhill slide, dealing with relationship collapse. Her initial approach was to give me the tools and guidance needed to help with the immediate problems, getting things turned around and back on track. We were then able to explore more of the underlying issues from both past and present.

    Always caring and empathic, but also challenging when it was perhaps needed, Shena's comforting and guiding nature has been immeasurably helpful.

    I cannot imagine a better person to recommend.”

    - John, Photographer
    "Something resonated deeply in a brief talk of Shena’s I attended. It was matter of fact, pragmatic and immediately applicable. I contacted her and I didn’t know what to expect, but I was thrown head first into a journey I am eternally grateful for and the efforts continue to reverberate.

    I received what I came for and more. As a teacher and mentor I found her acute understanding of the knowledge to be not only academic but very personal, which in turn helped me to use it empirically and intuitively. Shena has worked hard for this knowledge and is sharing it to the willing. She has a map.

    Thank you for being there for us. I am still moved by your passion and commitment to the teachings and for your students.”

    - Joel, Composer
    "I began with Shena during a stormy transition in my life; she and the teachings were a bright lighthouse on a warm shore. Her knowledge of her area of expertise is exquisite. I learned things about myself that might’ve taken me years to find out.

    I’m now able to face conflicts, inside myself or with others, with a calmness that I had never accessed before. I find myself speaking my truth more easily, and because of it, I’m experiencing life in a completely new and joyful way.

    I can’t even express my gratitude for having found her. She has truly changed the course of my life.

    I can’t thank you enough. Thank you, thank you, from the bottom of my heart.”

    "I love doing this and I love everything about it, I’m becoming a better human being and it has really helped a lot. The practices I’ve been doing almost daily have done wonders for me...I have this profound unconditional love these days, and it's working its way into every aspect of my life, the people I talk to, my children, everything.

    I'm taken so aback and blown away by that, I don't have the words to describe it sometimes. Thank you so much, the journey has been incredible, I don't think I could ever truly repay you. That's how grateful I am. Thank you!"

    - Jeff, Coast Guard

    The workshop was an evocative journey into the heart of your relationship joys and challenges. It gets to the core of where each partner needs to grow. Shena offered activities and practices to delve into that core.

    I left knowing myself and my partner better, feeling hopeful for the future.”
