Right now you might be feeling a distance creeping in. Whatever happened to the little things that used to bring you closer as a couple now?
Conversations feel transactional instead of meaningful. You love each other deeply, but something just feels off.
Maybe you can’t quite put your finger on it, or perhaps it’s obvious. More arguments, less intimacy, conversations that feel shallow or tense. The connection that once felt effortless now seems like a full-time job.
But whatever it is, if you’re being honest, you’re not sure how to fix it.
You want to stop the fights and actually feel heard. You miss feeling like best friends.
That’s a lonely place to be. But you’re not alone. Every couple hits rough patches. The difference between the ones who make it and the ones who don’t? They do something about it.
Who wants to settle for merely coexisting like roommates? You want to laugh more, talk more, feel more. No matter what life throws at you, you know you are in this together, stronger than ever…ride or die.
That means…
Breaking the cycle of those same fights that never get resolved
No more walking on eggshells
Bringing back the deep conversations, the laughter, the connection you miss
Feeling heard, understood, and deeply connected again
Communication that brings you closer instead of pushing you apart
Rebuilding trust if it’s been shaken
Rekindling the passion, intimacy, and joy that made you fall in love in the first place
A deeper connection that lasts, no matter what life throws at you
A relationship that doesn’t just survive, but thrives
Scot and Emily McKay have been through it all—over 19 years of “walking the talk”. They’ve empowered hundreds of couples to move past roadblocks and create a happy and fulfilling life together.
It all starts with an honest, judgment-free conversation to get to the root of what’s happening in your relationship…not just the surface issues, but what’s really going on underneath. From there, we’ll map out your personalized plan together. It’s custom-designed specifically for you, so every session actually moves you forward.
This isn’t about band-aid fixes. Expect real, actionable breakthroughs that change the way you communicate, connect, and show up for each other.
You’ll have private, one-on-one coaching sessions (via Zoom, phone, or in-person in San Antonio) at your own pace, with simple (and actually fun) exercises between calls to make sure what you learn sticks.
You don’t have to settle for “just okay.” You deserve a relationship that feels amazing, safe, exciting, and strong.
