Kelci, Age 30, Married 10 years, Canada
Before I started coaching with Sherry, I was feeling really hopeless and stuck in my relationship. Our relationship had been a roller coaster from the beginning, with many years of hard times. I had really lost touch with who I am and what makes me happy, just trying to survive, raise our daughter, and fix the relationship on my own.
Though I had been practicing the Skills for a few years by myself, we were still having big breakdowns, and I couldn’t quite break through or maintain peace in our home. We’d have glimpses of good times, and then another major breakdown would hit. I knew I needed support to get out of this big hole I had dug from years of being disrespectful and fighting.
I loved our sessions and being held accountable for my part in having a happy marriage. Just knowing a coaching call was coming up helped me make better decisions, because I had someone to keep me accountable. I felt very safe expressing myself in our sessions, and I appreciated that Sherry values a safe space and confidentiality.
Sherry is very intuitive, and what she shared often aligned perfectly and synchronistically with what I needed to hear. It helped me shift my perspective and experience breakthroughs. I left every session feeling excited and hopeful about my marriage!
Sherry went above and beyond, not only helping me with my marriage but also encouraging me in my relationship with God and study of Scripture. She truly helped save my relationship. Without her, I think I would have given up hope. I gained confidence that I really can create the peaceful and loving relationship of my dreams.
Now, when hard times come, I think of Sherry, the Skills, and all the wives who’ve seen major transformations in their marriages. They are my North Star, helping me look past the moment and choose a more dignified and loving path.
I’m finding myself again—what I love, what makes me happy, and what makes me uniquely me. Coaching has softened me and helped me embrace my femininity. I highly recommend coaching with Sherry if you’re ready to get off the fence and break through to a whole new dance in your relationship.
A happy relationship is priceless. I’m so grateful I jumped—it was worth it!
Testimonials
Theresa W, Age 40, Married 1 year, USA
In the bad old days, I was often frustrated with my husband’s habits. I wanted him to help me more and be more loving towards me. I would complain that he was lazy, “too particular”, and always micromanaging me. As a die-hard romantic, I did not want to give up on the idea that we could have a loving, fun marriage that really felt like a team. I knew there must be things I could do to influence our relationship for the better, I just needed to find out what those things were and do them!
I always enjoy my coaching sessions with Sherry. She is a warm, safe person who I can be myself with and talk about what’s really going on. She is easy to relate to and share with. Somehow by talking to her, I can see the bright side of a situation and focus on doing my part to make my marriage as great as it can be.
With Sherry’s help, I’ve built better habits of taking care of myself, and that improves my marriage since I’m not so irritable. I’ve also gotten better at taking responsibility for my part in the marriage, like creating the positive changes I’d like to see. For instance, if I’m annoyed about my husband’s mess, I focus on making myself happy, clean up my own messes and practice gratitude for what my husband already does that’s GOOD. If I start wishing for a more active lifestyle with him, I find a way to be active without him instead of complaining about him.
I would absolutely recommend Intimacy Skills private coaching to others. As a new mother, I can see how the stresses of parenting small kids can wear on couples and frustrate a marriage. I rely on these Skills daily to keep my relationship with my husband loving and fun. Without coaching, the Skills are MUCH harder for me to actually put in practice and keep up that discipline. It also helps me see the ways I drift over into my husband’s lane, which harms our relationship. Getting regular coaching keeps me positive and accountable so I can create the marriage I want.
Laura A, Age 31, Married 9 years, USA
Prior to working with Sherry, I was in constant needless emotional turmoil. I was all over my husband’s paper and although I was aware that I should get off of it, I just couldn’t seem to figure out how to actually do that. I was very afraid of letting my guard down and of getting hurt. I was so sure that my husband was not invested in our marriage and couldn’t stop looking for evidence to support that painful narrative I had. I felt lonely and often unhappy.
I knew there was a lot of wisdom and value in Laura Doyle’s books that really resonated with me. I just didn’t know how to apply it in my specific situations and day to day life. I knew I needed the help of a coach to give me the insights I was missing to finally create the relationship I had craved for so long.
During our sessions Sherry always made me feel incredibly safe in sharing my deepest, most vulnerable thoughts and challenges. I felt I could open up to her about anything and she would receive it with kindness, empathy and understanding. I found a lot of hope and inspiration from Sherry’s own story of how she used the skills to turn her marriage of many years completely around. She used her experiences to guide me towards the intimacy skill that fit each situation I brought to her. Her mastery of the skills and invitations helped me come farther in my marriage than I could have imagined possible. Sherry always stood for my vision and thanks to her, I never lost hope that my marriage could be amazing. I am so grateful to her!
With intimacy skills private coaching, I learned how to catch myself before spiraling into needless emotional turmoil and ways to combat that with new patterns that served my vision for my relationship and for the woman I wanted to be. I was finally able to have the courage to be vulnerable with my husband and create the intimacy and connection that I had been hoping for so many years.
I would 100% recommend intimacy skills private coaching to any and every woman wanting to create intimacy, passion, and connection in her marriage as well as improve any other important relationships in her life!
