There's still time to sign up for the Start Smart mentor certification!
We would love for you to join us in our mission to help couples create stronger, healthier marriages.

Of all the comments we receive from couples who complete Navigating Us or Hope Weekend, the one we hear the most is: “I wish I had learned this sooner. It would have saved me so much heartbreak.”

This is why we offer Start Smart, our premarital workshop, to help couples prepare for the challenges of marriage before they arise. Can you imagine how fewer couples we would see at Hope Weekend if more couples went through a program like Start Smart?

You can be the difference.

President & CEO of Live the Life, Richard Albertson, is coming to Jacksonville to personally lead a training for our next group of Start Smart mentors - and we would love for you to join!

Come explore being part of our mission to reduce the divorce rate and help more couples set the foundation for a healthy, thriving marriage by becoming a Start Smart mentor!

Not ready to commit to being a mentor but still want to learn? No worries! The experience will still be worth it. You never know who may be impacted by what you will learn at this valuable workshop.

The holidays are coming up soon, which means family gatherings, hectic schedules, and kids home from school. The busyness of the season can often place a strain on relationships.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

Start the holiday season off strong by investing in your marriage at Navigating Us! This 12-hour interactive workshop is designed to help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, deepen connection, and create a clear path forward—together. Whether you've been married for 5 days or 50 years, Navigating Us has something for every couple.

Navigating Us will help you:

🧡 Recognize when your communication style is more of a problem than the actual problem you are facing

🧡 Develop the ability to feel genuine empathy for your partner instead of secret resentment

🧡 Express yourself clearly so that your thoughts and feelings can be recognized and understood without causing your spouse to feel defensive, resentful, overwhelmed, manipulated or inadequate

🧡 Avoid the mind-reading that so often leads to misunderstanding between couples, and learn to avoid assumptions

🧡 Express and accept anger without destroying love

🧡 Fight in such a way that you resolve the issues at hand and actually feel closer to your spouse

🧡 Acknowledge and enjoy the differences between you and your spouse, rather than seeing him/her as a threat

🧡 Understand what went wrong in previous relationships or what is going wrong now

This will most likely be our last marriage workshop of 2026. Don't miss this opportunity, sign up for Navigating Us today!

There's been a lot of talk about consent and boundaries in relationships on the internet lately. It's too bad there isn't a free program that teaches teenagers about relationship red flags, boundaries, self-worth, respect for others, and the benefits of waiting until marriage...

Oh wait... There is! The True North Project from Live the Life teaches all of this and more.

If you believe these are important conversations we should be having with our youth, let your school administration know! Change won't happen unless parents speak up.

To learn more about True North and how you can bring it to your school, homeschool group, youth group or sports team in Jacksonville, email us at [email protected].

Real results for real couples.

We've received a lot of great feedback from the couples who have attended Navigating Us this year. One of the most common things we hear from participants is how much their communication has improved, not just in their marriage, but in all their relationships.

If this sounds like something you need, please join us for our next workshop! We're just a little over a week away and space is limited. Secure your spot today!
