Meet our 2026 Facilitators

Rooted in Love
Connection, Play, and Partnership

We’re so happy to be returning as facilitators in 2026! There is such a deep well of knowledge of how you can enrich your relationship and your lives and we are very excited to bring it to you. We are excited to bring entirely new content and exercises for the Rocky Mountain Couples Retreat in 2026. 

 

We'll be sharing with you the wisdom and  experience from our work with couples, and in our own relationship, of how  partnerships can be Rooted in Love.  The other exciting thing is to see  your beautiful community come together again -  the space will be filled  with like-minded people who want to share in living a more joyous and connected  life together. April can’t come fast enough for us!
