“I was extremely skeptical of the program but my marriage was in serious jeopardy. If it could save my marriage I was willing to give it a try. It was the best thing I ever did in my life. I gained so much! I also lost so much, like the anger I had carried for so long.”

“Our marriage was in crisis … it is in a much healthier position now than it has been in years… I was ready to walk out of my marriagesimply because I believed too much damage had been done and I was in no position to be able to forgive and move on. With plans set in motion and my “ducks all in row”, it was just a matter of getting through one more weekend before I was going to file for divorce.
Now, after graduating from the Bootcamp program, I have found the courage and strength to forgive myself, my family (namely my father) and of course (my husband). There was no way I could have predicted that the outcome of a 4 day counselling session (or what I believed at the time to be simply a “counselling” weekend) would be a renewed commitment to my marriage.
Going through this remarkable program allowed me to recognize that my broken marriage can be fixed as long as I am provided the right tools to fix, mend and most importantly to heal.So THANK YOU very much for allowing us to participate! We are indeed eternally grateful to you and your family for developing the Bootcamp program in the format that it was presented and for being financially feasible for us to partake in. As mentioned during our last day at Bootcamp, there are other alternative programs available – some of which are prohibitively expensive (at least for us) and for no other reason that I could think of at the time I signed us up for Bootcamp. I thought it was the one that I could afford. I am so GLAD that your program is affordable for most people because it truly is the best investment I have ever made!!”

“I have done alot of workshops in my life and this is definitely the best one yet. I did this workshop almost two weeks ago and I am still having alot of ahh ha’s. If you truly want to learn yourself so you can make all of your relationships the best they can be this is the one to do. They leave you with great tools to be able to manage your own stuff which affects your whole life all the way around. I could not thank Ron, Tina and Jenny enough for their help, they are truly wonderful people that I feel blessed to have met in my life. Thank you guys.”

“… helped me safely travel on the uneven terrain of relationships.”
“… helped my husband and I laugh again.”
“The weekend was the best investment I made for my kids, they have a mom and dad again. Thank you! Thank You!”
“On Thursday my husband and I were getting divorced and by Sunday we were planning our recommitment ceremony! We got rid of all the baggage weighing us down… thank you for giving us the skills we need to continue on our journey to a healthy relationship.”
“Hi Ron,
I wanted to thank you, Tina, the folks that sponsored us, and the other folks behind the scenes at Marriage BootCamp. Renee and I have changed so much in the last week that we are almost not recognizable to each other mentally or physically. There is no way that I would have ever imagined that a change like this could ever occur. But it did, and you should be really proud in knowing that you are responsible for one of the most impacting times in our lives… Most of all it was for better, not worse!
It is only a few days after the completion of the Marriage BootCamp and Life Enrichment seminars, so I am still tired and tender. Now that we are home it is so easy to slip back into old habits, but the difference now is that Renee and I can openly discuss the “tapes”, know they exist, and understand how to discuss them with out fear or disappointing each other.
In the past I felt as if I needed to walk on egg shells and not touch some of her sensitive areas. Now I equate it to crossing a creek and feeling out stones to make sure that I am on the right path… A path that she will be able to navigate as well. The “feeling” part is the method that I choose to take in our discussions… The Anger exercises helped me there. The “Path” can be equated to the big unknown ahead of us. I am sure that I will slip in the water eventually, but hopefully Renee will be there to help me dry-off and get back on track. I look forward to doing the same for her.
The advertised idea that the seminars are the equivalent to 3-4 years of counseling was incomprehensible to me. The reason being, we have been through counseling on-and-off for about four-years and it never seemed to accomplish much – other than coming to grips with the idea that divorce is definitely a viable and probable option. I also do not think that we could stand each other for another 3-4 years if we did not have a drastic change. Now that our relationship had that shock, Renee and I can now continue on a slow, controlled course of action on building our relationship, instead of analyzing all that is wrong with it!
So now that I know first hand that Marriage BootCamp lived up to all of its claims, there are a few other benefits that I would like to point out. First off, there is a physical difference in Renee and me. We can see it in each other and oddly enough, there were several people that pointed it out. Could this be what happy, self-content, and clear minded individuals look like? I think so! The other big change in my outlook on life is a shift from trying to just make-it or get by, to going from good-to-great. Before I thought that I was happy with life in spite of the challenges with my marriage. Now that I am not carrying around all this baggage, I feel strength and energy that I could only dream of before.
Now that we received such a great gift, we feel indebtedness to you. So the only way we see fit is to try and encourage others to participate in an up-coming seminar to share in the goodness. By sharing our experiences, we have identified at least two couples that are in a similar situation that we were in. I hope they too find the strength and desire to leap of faith into the BootCamp and you continue to work your magic.
Thank you so much for making a difference.”
