The 6-Hour Couples relationship Intensive

Stop Repeating the Same Fight.
Start Transforming Your Relationship.

If you and your partner feel stuck in the same arguments—

misunderstood, emotionally disconnected, or walking on eggshells—this intensive is

designed to interrupt that cycle immediately.

This is a focused, high-impact 6-hour experience where you will:

What Makes This Different

Moves slowly

Stays surface-level

Doesn’t change real-time conflict patterns

This intensive is built differently.

You will work directly with the creators of the F.I.G.H.T. Plan®, a structured, evidence-informed system for resolving conflict and rebuilding connection.

You won’t just talk about your problems.
You will work through them—live, with guidance.

What You Will Learn: The F.I.G.H.T. Plan® Framework

You will identify:

  • Your negative interaction patterns
  • How arguments escalate
  • The emotional triggers beneath the surface

Outcome: You stop reacting blindly and start seeing the pattern.

You will explore:

  • Personal triggers and sensitivities
  • Emotional flooding and shutdown patterns
  • Your role in the conflict cycle

Outcome: Increased self-awareness reduces reactivity and defensiveness.

You will learn:

  • How to avoid harsh start-ups
  • How to slow down escalation
  • What rules must exist for safe, productive conversations

Outcome: Arguments become structured, safer, and more productive.

You will practice:

  • Effective apologies
  • Rebuilding emotional safety
  • Repair attempts that actually work

Outcome: You stop carrying unresolved resentment into every conversation.

You will develop:

  • A shared plan for handling future conflict
  • New communication habits
  • A strategy for ongoing growth

Outcome: Conflict becomes a tool for connection—not disconnection.
