A Gift for your Relationship - Communication Skills for Business Owners

Running a business affects everything – including your relationship. Long hours, stress, work conversations at home, and not enough time to connect can leave both partners feeling tense, misunderstood, or disconnected.

This skill building communication-focused program is designed especially for business owners and trades professionals who want calmer evenings, fewer arguments, and a stronger sense of partnership at home.

No couples counselling required.
Just a practical, supportive way to take stress out of your relationship.

Available throughout BC and Alberta online and in-person in Fernie.

It’s something you do for your partner. And it can make a world of difference.

Does this sound familiar?

You’re great at running a business.

You work hard for your family and do your best to be sure they are all looked after and have everything they need.

You often have to leave for work early and come home late  – exhausted – physically and mentally spent.

You are sacrificing and working hard for your family.

Yet, if you are like many busy business owners, your partner may feel disconnected or overwhelmed.

You might notice conversations feel tense, rushed, or disconnected, or have too many arguments – about the same old things.

A Gift That Actually Helps Your Relationship

Most partners don’t want more “things”—they want:

  • to feel heard

  • to feel understood

  • to feel supported

  • to feel like a team

This is a 3–5 session individual communication focus that you can give as a holiday gift, a birthday gift, an anniversary gesture, or simply a meaningful step toward a stronger relationship.

You attend the sessions.
Your partner receives the benefits. (and so do you!)
