I didn't know what I was going to learn that I didn't already know. And I'll tell you—it blew my mind.
“There's so much I didn't know. It was so eye-opening. It was so thorough, so actionable. I was just so impressed. I'm a hard one to impress. I've been in a lot of coaching programs in my past. I rarely find a coaching program that I think is more thorough than my own. And this program was so thorough.
It gave me everything I needed. It came with so many usable exercises and worksheets that I could help my clients with. I felt 100% comfortable going forward after the certification was over.
Even if you don't even apply it in a professional setting, it's going to help you personally in every relationship. Thank you for an amazing program. It's totally life-changing.”

As a coach for 12 years now… I've never come across a training this packed with incredible gems and speed of the highest caliber useful information.
“This training is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE and has exceeded any thought possible. I'm ELATED over all the new tools that I've learned AND BEEN USING in my private life, in sessions with my clients and sharing with so many. I'm forever grateful...
If you are even in the slightest considering this complete goldmine school for thriving relationships, dive STRAIGHT IN…
There is AMAZING INCREDIBLE material and live calls each week. Just in awe.
The amount of information you receive in JUST ONE module is packed with goodies and all of them are GEMS and so helpful tools to really assist others and our own personal lives to thrive in love.
...this training is for ANYONE and ALL. EVERYONE should really do this class before dating even!
Bret and Christine are by far two of the utmost magical and fun, positive, caring, loving humans ever ever ever. I can't even begin to tell you how deeply touched I am by the LOVE they emanate and embody.
I was longing for more of a community in my practice and as a solo entrepreneur and this really was an answer to my prayers. THANK YOU with ALL MY HEART.”

...the sole reason we were able to save our 30 year marriage. The content is unrivaled. It saved my own 30-year marriage after infidelity, and we're now thriving!
…our relationship became something so different, so brilliant, so healthful and so immediate! And those who knew us, couldn't believe our transformation. Now, we're the couple other couples want to emulate!Since starting the course, anytime I share info with anybody, I'm seen as an authority and people trust the information. The need is so vast, it's indescribable!
I feel like I won the lottery! I'm eternally indebted to Bret and Christine. They are the sole reason we were able to save our 30 year marriage. I never knew thriving existed in relationships!
The content and theories that make up the Center for Thriving Relationships are so complete and all inclusive. It's applicable and highly effective for anyone who applies their principles to any relationship.”

10/10 recommend taking this program!
"Bret and Christine are a dream! They really give you everything you need to feel fully supported and cared for… far beyond what I could have imagined. They work so beautifully together in trainings, inspiring you along the way. As you go through the program, you have the opportunity to ask any questions you have, which is huge. The investment is soooo worth it. Christine sets you up to start taking clients with the business bootcamp sessions in the last 8 weeks of training. I would have never even known where to start when it came to business! ...too easy! (with her guidance!). I had perused other coaching programs online before signing up for this one. Some offer a much shorter training… and I can’t imagine leaving a shorter training with THIS MUCH incredible knowledge PLUS the tools to use in my own practice. My own relationship with my partner has become even stronger as a result of going through the tools and trainings together. That alone is worth it to me!
Magic is happening! I’m excited to dive into all the new possibilities this program has opened up for me… it’s been an incredible experience all around."
Lindsay Jean
If someone's considering the program and is a little hesitant, one hundred, one thousand percent do it!
“Christine and Bret and the whole team at Center for Thriving Relationships have gone above and beyond in putting the materials together. It is well beyond the time and the financial investment.
It will change your life in so many positive ways that you're not even expecting yet. It'll change all of your relationships for the better The material is presented in such a way that you can learn it and you can feel confident. We have gone on to do our own presentation on cultivating a thriving relationship with the tools learned at the Center for Thriving Relationships. That presentation was at the largest sex-positive conference in the world— a super proud moment.

One of the best things I have ever done in my life.
“For years, I have always loved those situations where I would talk to people and help them to come to new insights of their own. Such situations were few and far between, however. I yearned for more experiences where I could help others... But I didn’t know how to bring that into my life. This program is the way! I so admire how Bret and Christine have created a program that distills the essence of a complex body of research and thought into a fun, educational, personal growth experience. They bring it to life in such an engaging way! The program also includes so much support and education about the process of coaching and how to work with clients. It’s not just a matter of learning the curriculum; students are also supported as they engage with the material...and apply the relationship insights to their own lives. Bret and Christine are amazing instructors! Their excitement for teaching this material is so apparent. Their support and spirit sets the tone for the whole course. They have such a talent for making concepts easy to understand and bringing new insights. In so many sessions, I had “a-ha moments” where I was able to look at things in a new way...”
Amy Rosenburg
The course that revived our love! It turned out to be the life-changing experience we desperately needed.
“Daniel and I were looking for something we could work on and build together. And at the same time we were having problems in our relationship. We had tried everything, from couples counseling, books, videos – but nothing seemed to be working.
Just as we were about to lose our hope, we stumbled upon the Center for Thriving Relationships Certification Course, and it turned out to be the life-changing experience we desperately needed.
The course covers a wide range of topics. Each module is designed to address a different aspect of relationship building, making it a comprehensive and holistic approach to strengthening and deepening connection.
The practical exercises, real life examples and guided discussions allowed us to gain a new perspective on our issues and equipped us with the tools necessary to work through them. We started to understand each other on a deeper level and learned how to express our love in ways that are meaningful to both of us.
Christine and Bret are amazing, knowledgeable and compassionate, and they created a safe space for us to share our deepest concerns and vulnerabilities.
We wholeheartedly recommend the Thriving Relationship Coach Certification program. It has transformed our lives and given us confidence to help people to do the same.”
Derya Cunningham
After intensive research and searching for a relationship coach certification program that would meet all my needs, the Thriving Relationship Coach Certification Program EXCEEDED my needs.
“I am beyond grateful for this program! Our instructors, Bret and Christine, give you the most researched knowledge and abundance of actual tools that bring so much confidence to be able to do this work. Not only do they generously give you training sessions, tools, sample sessions, and business sessions, but they do everything with the utmost compassion and generosity. Their kindness and compassion is truly what I believe can make the biggest difference amongst other programs. All aspects of the program truly gave me the knowledge and confidence to know that this is truly the work that I know and believe in my heart to do. I am beyond grateful to Bret and Christine!”
Jessica Garcia
You will absolutely conquer self-doubt with this program.
“This program has prepared me to be a relationship coach in so many ways. It has prepared me by giving me the tools and giving me the confidence to use those tools. Christine and Bret as instructors are phenomenal. They are forever present throughout the entire course. You ask a question, they answer it. You post a question on Facebook, you get an answer typically within minutes.
They are truly there every step of the way for you.You will absolutely conquer self-doubt with this program because it can be a completely new career path without having previous experience in it.
I trust in what I have learned because their tools are so phenomenal and their process truly is amazing.”
Jené Arbuckle
The Thriving Relationship Coaching Certification program exceeded our expectations.
“The tools and resources are very well thought out and fully hit the mark in helping couples learn how to navigate their marriage pitfalls and thrive in their relationships. Bret and Christine are truly generous and loving souls. Combine that with their expertise in coaching and counseling and you have true win-win situation. We would say that one of the best aspects of the program is being able to participate in the bi-weekly live Q & A calls with Bret and Christine. Not only were we able to get our questions answered by Bret & Christine, but the relationships forged during those calls are invaluable.”
Rick & Lynn Jenkins
...dives into relationships in every way possible
“This program is different than other coaching programs because it dives into relationships in every way possible, and you get to heal and grow as you take the journey -- which gives the best version of you to yourself and others. They always lend a supportive helping hand and encourage you every step of the way. It's such a beautiful thing to see Bret and Christine as instructors working together and being transparent. You can definitely see that they utilize what they teach, and the love they have for one another.
You also get the clinical side of relationships so that you can best love, support, and help people thrive. Thank you to everyone at the Center for Thriving Relationships for making sure we had everything we needed to be a light unto others!”
Bridgette Hovis
I was blown away!
“What a journey! Incredible program. 10/10 recommend this to anyone wanting to grow personally and find out more about themselves.
I especially loved your genuine caring for us to succeed and be better, the knowledge, the organization (perfect and easy to follow), the wisdom, and all the LOVE.
If you enjoy helping others and have ever felt a calling to do more, this class will speak to you.
When I signed up, I wondered how legit it was and if it was going to help. After just the first hour of class, it was clear to me that Bret and Christine put their hearts into it 100%.
I was blown away, and all my fears were put at ease.”
Samuel Deaner
They live what they preach.
“One of the things I really loved about the program is not only Christine's enthusiasm—I mean, she just exudes love—but Bret has that gentle thoughtfulness. And you think, these people can be my coach. They live what they preach. When I saw this coaching program and saw that it had a practical element in launching a business so that I didn't have to guess how to do this, it was a no-brainer. Get in there.
It was great to become part of a community. I got to coach but also be coached. I think one of the things that Bret and Christine bring to the program is that they've been in this awhile. This is 20 years of experience speaking.
It's also incredible to see that they are living what they're speaking about. It’s fun to watch them. They just are so open, so real, so authentic...”
Jack Taylor
The knowledge learned will last a lifetime...
“This program has given me such a positive and bright glimpse into my future as both a wife and relationship coach. The support given during this program has been such a motivation. Because I could connect directly with other students and Bret and Christine, it has made it easy to ask questions, share, and learn. I, like so many others, have a special place in my heart for Bret and Christine. If you feel it in your heart that you might be interested in this course, don't hold back for a second because the knowledge learned will last a lifetime.”
Brianne Jamerson
I found this course to be the missing link I was looking for!
“It is truly enlightening and teaches so many principles and tools couples can apply to have a thriving relationship -- and covers so many real-life situations. The whole course has ABSOLUTELY exceeded my expectations! Christine and Bret are an AMAZING duo, and you cannot fake the love and genuineness they share with one another as well as with the Coaches! Plus, they are deeply knowledgeable about the field of relationships and such wonderful instructors! I wholeheartedly recommend this program to anyone who would like to become a Certified Relationship Coach! Even my own marriage has improved as a result of this course! Why SURVIVE when you can THRIVE!”
Adrienne Connor
This program exceeded every expectation I had.
“Bret and Christine were able to bring a beautiful balance of tender care, well supported science, and respectful nuance to every single module. The depth and breadth of content blew me away and I feel so prepared to support clients from this foundation. The relationship I have with myself and the people around me are changed for the better having done this program and I cannot wait to extend that to clients as well.”
Meg Garner-Ballard
This is by far the best program I have ever been a part of to improve my marriage.
“We have been through counseling, coaching, intensives, retreats, etc. We've done it all. This was like an immersion experience, which was exactly what we/I needed to get out of the hard place we've been stuck in for a long time. I loved learning from a male and female perspective together. I loved learning from a coach and a licensed therapist together.
I loved the books we read and the way that all the presentations and handouts helped us to apply them in our own lives and in our clients' lives. The flexibility was so perfect and helpful.
I love the sense of community and all the helpful voices chiming in when we need support or encouragement. I love the positive energy. So many great things!!! I am so grateful for this experience.”
Juanita Pfaff
I learned skills that will last me a lifetime.
“This has helped me to grow, my marriage to grow, and now be able to show someone else the magnitude of life changes that are possible. This course is set apart from anything else that I've learned in my entire lifetime. I was just floored at the learning tools they provided. They gave us everything that we need and not just the heart, but the brain and the mind. And they put it all together in a package for us to succeed. It's changed me for the better.”

Kowanna Farrar
It was well worth the investment.
“If you're considering the certification but feeling nervous, I can honestly say it was well worth the investment.
As a single mom of two amazing girls, I have a busy schedule, but the way the coursework is structured made it easy to fit into my life. The flexibility of the program, combined with the regular check-in sessions, made all the difference. It truly felt like a supportive journey, and I'm so glad that I took the leap. One of my proudest moments is when clients experience breakthroughs and see things from a new perspective.
What surprised me the most was how much I could apply the material to my relationships across the board...”
