New opportunity - 04/14/05 05:05 AM
Hi everyone,
Since I have opened up a new office in Boulder, Colorado, I have decided to expand the services I offer folks to strengthen their marriages.
One of the new additions to our list of services is a one or two-day intensive with me in either Colorado or Illinois. I will work with both spouses and work with each of you separately. I have found that even if your marriage is in bad shape and your spouse definitely wants out, this kind of intense work can prove to be very useful. If you have questions about the course of the day (or 2) or you would like to schedule a time to visit my office, call Virginia, my assistant, and she will be delighted to help you. 800-664-2435.
Here is a letter I received from one of my most recent intensive "attendees". This is such an inspiration. I never tire of these letters.

Dear Michele,
Well, first of all, let me apologize-- I have been thinking of writing to you for a few weeks now, but then I decided to wait so as to be sure that things have truly settled down. I was reluctant to tell you too soon that things were fantastic or else I would somehow jinx my good fortune--I hope you understand. Anyway, now that a month has gone by and things are still really great between us, I feel comfortable enough to write to you and give you the good news: Larry and I have reconciled, he has been home ever since we returned from Colorado. Of course, I credit you for saving our marriage--I still wonder where we would be now if we had not met you.
Things have returned to "normal" again, except Larry and I are both mindful about "keeping the positive changes going." We make sure that we have date night once a week in addition to Saturday nights when we tend to go out with our friends. We are trying to avoid becoming over-scheduled on the weekends. We are comfortable hanging out together at home too, either reading or watching TV together. Larry calls me by his pet name for me again. We are looking forward to going to Mexico over spring break and we are thinking about what to do over the summer.
I have looked back at my journal to help me gain an understanding of what has happened. It was on December 22nd when we first spent the day with you. This was a huge turning point. Larry started to come over regularly, and continued to do so up until our second visit with you. We started doing things together as a family. I do appreciate how fortunate I am to have Larry back in my life and I hope that I have learned enough about myself so that I will always appreciate what I have and not take my marriage for granted.
Thank you Michele, from the bottom of my heart, for helping us save our marriage. Thank you for taking the time to get to know us, for inspiring us to make our marriage great, and for convincing Larry to see the value of our marriage. Thank you for writing terrific books and for being an advocate and a resource for helping others save their marriages. Please also send my heartfelt thanks to Vernetta for her no-nonsense advice and for encouraging me to meet with you in person. (Her prediction proved true, even though I did not think that it would at the time.) If you are ever in the NY area, please feel free to call us. Who knows, maybe we will come back next year around Valentine's Day!
