NEW! Weekly Staff Picks - this week from Alishea!
|
I am super excited about this year's conference. There are so many great trainings and workshops to choose from. I am always interested in new/different ways to look at common problems in relationships. That is why I have chosen the trainings and workshops below.
One of the trainings I am most interested in is Dr. Gary Oliver's Emotional & Relational Intelligence (ERQ) and Healthy Marriages, 1T-11.
Also I am very curious about the following workshops being offered:
- A-2 Hal Runkel, ScreamFree Marriage: The 6 Principles of a ScreamFree Marriage
- G-6 Stacey Bouchet, Training Female Service Providers to Effectively Engage Fathers
- I-3 Deanna Brann, Man in the Middle: The Significant Role Men Play in the Mother-in-Law/Daughter-in-Law Relationship
Besides the workshops and trainings, I am also looking forward to the networking evening at TopGolf. Full disclosure I have never played golf. However after visiting TopGolf, I think this will be a blast. We will have a chance to learn to play this new spin on golf together as well as eat dinner and network!! I cannot wait to see each of you in Frisco, TX!!

The old form of marriage, based on outdated social rules and gender roles, is fading. A new version is emerging-egalitarian, committed, and focused on children. Read More
