You Are Hardwired for Relationships, but Not Taught How to Be in Relationship

Long-term relationships tend to get a little stale for some couples. Trying to meet everyone’s expectations in a busy family can leave you fizzled out emotionally. Here is a 5-week telesummit with a dozen experts created to help you enjoy and cherish every moment of your relationship with your partner, spouse, child, or friend. The first week offers four speakers (two on Tuesday and two on Thursday) on the topic of Emotional Clashes & Collaboration.

The Importance of Self-Awareness to Healthy & Successful Relationships

TUESDAY, February 7, 2012 – 2:00 PM Central Time – Many singles as well as couples often experience unresolved issues in their relationships. These include conflicts, power struggles and even repeated breakups. Often those involved don’t understand their part in the failure of the relationship. Dr. Gil will illustrate, with many real-life anecdotes, how factors they are unaware of control their reactions and behaviors lead them to sabotage and harm the relationship: messages they unconsciously internalized; needs, desires and fears that lead them to get into and stay in unhealthy relationships; unrealistic fantasies and expectations about relationships that they hang on to, and other. During the interview Dr. Gil will explain how to develop Self-Awareness, become aware of these factors, de-activate their power and become able to develop and maintain a successful and healthy relationship.

Doron Gil, Ph.D., is an expert on Self-Awareness and Relationships. He is a university teacher, workshop leader, counselor and consultant. Dr. Gil has taught this subject to thousands of students and trained physicians, managers, school teachers and parents on how to develop Self-Awareness in order to expand their personal and professional skills. Dr. Gil has lectured widely on these and related subjects at conferences world-wide, and has written more than 130 articles on this subject.

The Globalisation of Love

TUESDAY, February 7, 2012 at 2:35 PM Central Time – Canadian, Wendy Williams, has been married to an Austrian for 13 years and lives in Vienna. Her new book is published on her wedding anniversary, 13th November. In this interview we discover how she created a new term to apply to those in a multicultural marriage – GloLo – and how Williams cleverly chose to include the wisdom of intercultural and relationship experts in order to ensure her book was well-researched and had the authority it needed. This is a humorous book written for real people who recognize their connection despite differences.

The Globalisation of Love is based on dozens of interviews with multicultural couples from around the world. The book includes chapters on multicultural weddings, religion, race, food, language and children and much more. It is both humorous and factual and Wendy includes personal anecdotes from her own experience in a multicultural family. The Globalisation of Love is a must read for anyone who is in a multicultural relationship or thinking about it!

Wendy Williams is the author of The Globalisation of Love, a book about multicultural romance and marriage. Wendy has lived in six different countries and worked internationally for 18 years. She has had lots of multicultural relationships; however revealing the exact number would be unladylike, wouldn’t it? Wendy is Canadian and has been married to an Austrian for thirteen years. They live in Vienna, Austria with their daughter. Wendy coined the term ‘GloLo’ in The Globalisation of Love. She also invented the cocktail GloLoTini. http://www.globalisationoflove.com/

 

When Values Clash, Relationships Crash

THURSDAY, February 9, 2012 at 2:00 PM Central Time – Dr Minette Riordan -When a couple enters into a romantic relationship, hormones and romance can take over, leaving little time for serious conversation. As the relationship continues and conversations deepen, it’s important to understand your own and your partner’s values. No matter how sexy and romantic your partner might be, if she doesn’t want kids and you do, the relationship will not last. In this call, Dr. Riordan will give some quick tips on identifying values that can help strengthen your existing relationship or determine if your budding romance is headed in the right direction.

Dr. Minette Riordan became certified in 2006 as a Coach for Parents through the Academy for Parent Coaching International.
