Many of us long for partnership and when we find it, the real work begins. Sure, the love, joy and wonder of it all is the absolute best. While the opportunities in partnership are extraordinary, it’s so very common that together, we “activate” each other. Honestly, it often takes help to negotiate the challenges so we can do well with them.
We are here to help!
I’d like to introduce my husband William Grace Frost. After 15 years in conscious partnership, we have discovered a pathway to love..

We draw our wisdom and ability to help you from a rich lifetime of professional facilitation skills, diverse worldly experiences and 15 years living and working together in conscious loving, and creative, collaboration.

We offer an objective perspective, compassion, insight, warm hearted humor and proven effective tools so you can successfully navigate the very real challenges you face in your intimate relationship.

What We Believe
The Choice: Partnership as a Spiritual Practice
We hold partnership as both a chosen path and a living practice. It’s a path that some, but not all, are called into. Those who do choose it, come together to grow and evolve as much as come together to love and be loved. With intention, and through the safe and intimate sharing of our most vulnerable places, we assist one another in awakening to our best selves.
Honoring Self: Self-Authority & Self-Responsibility
We’re each responsible for our own self-care. As our basic needs are met and as we become secure and trusting in the partnership, we become more and more available to co-create and truly thrive.
We are all unique individuals who have a basic need to be seen, heard, valued, self-expressed and self-fulfilled. We begin in our process by helping you come to greater appreciation for how you show up, and for your unique needs and desires. By accepting and honoring you and how you are, you are more readily and positively able to share your gifts with your partner.
Honoring the “Other”
Who’s this strange and wonderful creature we’ve attracted to us? Were we really clear about what we were getting into?
We believe in honoring shared values as well as differences. We work with a variety of models providing insight into the value of our differences to help enhance appreciation for the many gifts our partner offers.
We create sacred space where both partners can mutually feel safe, heard, seen, valued and respected. We evoke curiosity and discovery so that listening can happen with greater interest and openness, and we help heighten appreciation for the many gifts that each partner brings to the relationship.
The “WE”: Complementarity & Synergy
When two people come together in love, a third entity is created, the “WE” or partnership. Just like the individuals, the WE needs attention and nurturing. It’s each person’s responsibility to care for themselves, and also to care for the well-being of the partnership. When each is aware and commits to this, each one can relax more deeply, feeling held in the shared guardianship of the relationship.
In sacred partnership we hold the greater potential to exalt one another by seeing how our differences are not impediments, but rather amazing resources that enhance us as a couple. In partnership we hold a greater potential to elevate one another in becoming something greater than the sum of us.
Coming Back to Love
Life can be challenging. Facing life as a WE can add additional challenge. Our partners and our circumstances have the capacity to trigger old wounds and unconscious beliefs. The sooner we accept that intimate relationship is a gift that stimulates issues between us, the sooner we can dive in to the field of love and healing that brought us together in the first place.
In our work, we share a foundational practice we call, “Coming back to love”. When applied, it becomes the ground of being for all that we co-create. After all, in love, all things become possible and life’s challenges are more manageable.
Dancing Together: Relationship as a Living Practice
Relationship is a living practice. It’s never static. Once you’ve got a good thing going, something always seems to arise that creates a need to adjust. Life presents infinite opportunities that invite us into new growth at every turn and in each new phase. At each moment, we make the choice again to step forward in partnership, stronger in love together. With each living moment we can live into our greater potential to go deeper and soar higher.
It is our intention to support a deeper appreciation for the dance of relating as a living practice. The creativity of partnership is a living art form that can be dynamic or still, playful or serious, fast or slow, loud or quiet, and ultimately, enriching our lives, as we co-create a more fulfilling reality together.
