The Paradox "I like him, he understands women!" I can not tell you how many women have said this exact thing with a big smile on their face while I talked with their husband or boyfriend about what makes women tick and what they want in a relationship. "He gets it." Usually the man sits across from me somewhat dumbfounded that another man can actually understand what his woman wants. He sure doesn't. He is in my office hoping I will help him get his wife to quit blowing up so much, or stop nagging him, or get her to want to have sex with him more often. He wasn't expecting me to focus most of the session on him or to hear his wife respond so enthusiastically to my approach for solving their marital frustrations. No matter what he has tried in the past, he has never seemed to find the right formula to keep her happy, in a good mood, and wanting sex. He is cautiously hopeful that there actually is a way to understand women and have the kind of relationship he thought he would have when they first began dating. Here is a frustrating paradox that affects men and women equally. Traditionally women have been thought of as the primary gatekeepers of intimate relationships. They watch Oprah and Dr. Phil. They buy the books and magazines about relationships. They talk endlessly about relationships with their girlfriends. They flock to chick flicks. They drag their partner into counseling. Unfortunately, in spite of their desire to have a great relationship with a great man, women are not the person capable of making it happen. The more they try, the more they frustrate both themselves and their man. Here is what happens when women are forced to set the tone and take the lead in their intimate relationships: They often come to feel controlling and bitter. Their man often feels criticized and inadequate. The man tends to become defensive and avoidant and sees the woman's frustrations and moods as a problem to be solved (and an indictment of his failings as a partner). The woman tends to feel dismissed and lonely and has to guess what her man is feeling and thinking. Both partners often end up feeling frustrated, resentful, powerless, and misunderstood. Their sex life takes a beating. The definition of INSANITY is doing more of the same and expecting different results. When what most couples are doing isn't working, they act insane - they keep doing more of what already isn't working. If you are ready for a new paradigm that will stop the insanty and help you get on the fast track to getting the kind of amazing relationship you have always wanted, read on. I've got answers. All The Way In: Relationship Essentials for Men In this sixteen week online class, I present a radical paradigm in which men are encouraged to take an active leadership role in their relationship by becoming more conscious, honest, and transparent. By becoming more present and conscious in their intimate relationship, men can act with love and integrity in setting a tone that promotes open communication, problem resolution, reciprocity, trust, and sexual passion. In other words, this class is aimed at showing men how to show up and take responsibility for creating a great relationship. Men love diagrams, schematics, and roadmaps. That is what this class presents. In this class, men will learn: How to become conscious and present in their intimate relationship. How to become a good "ascertainer". How to become honest and transparent. How to set healthy boundaries. How to create a great life and invite their partner to be the "icing" on top. How to set the tone and take the lead with love and integrity. How to do what is challenging rather than what is expedient. How to unleash the sexual potential of their relationship. While All the Way In is directed toward men, women are invited to be part of the class. I think it is helpful for women to know the kind of integrated man and healthy leader their partner is learning to become. In this class, women will learn: What it looks like when their partner becomes present in their relationship. How to trust and let go of control. How to participate in a more fully reciprocal relationship. How to ask for what they want in a way that has a high likelihood of getting it. How to welcome increased sexual passion. Who Will Benefit From the Class This sixteen week online class is open to straight, gay, and lesbian men and women. Even though some of the content focuses on "male" and "female" roles in heterosexual relationships, the principles taught in All The Way In can be powerfully applied by men and women in non-traditional relationships. It doesn't matter if you are straight, gay, or lesbian, someone has to lead and someone has to follow. Someone has to pitch and someone has to catch. While these roles can be flexible and fluid, someone has to step up and get the ball rolling and keep things on track. Regardless of sexual orientation, I have found that relationships work best when the "guy" steps up and takes the lead in an integrated and loving way. No matter what your current relationship looks like, you can step up and give it the chance to be all that it can be. Are you ready to take your relationship to the next level?
