Presentation Slide

It opened up a lot of conversations that we wouldn’t have started on our own. Gave us the tools to communicate and solve issues that made us a stronger couple. A great boost and better foundation for us moving forward.

We had a chance to reconnect, we experienced growth and reconciliation through viewpoints that are easily overlooked in day to day life.

That I was able to learn new things about my husband that i didn’t know after 14 years being together. To learn about the Spiritual Pathways was a great eye opener to being personal with God in our own way, never heard that before. The food and people were amazing. Such great stories from other couples and being honest with ourselves through the example of all the teachers’ vulnerability.

I was impressed with the quality of the content and the professionalism of the teachers.

The teaching, the meals, the accommodations, etc. It was my husband’s first time there (not mine) and he really enjoyed it as well. Muskoka is beautiful this time of year as well.
