Reviews


  • “The information shared in this seminar is life-changing, not only for me as a professional counselor but also for my (Christian) clients.... I would recommend this seminar to anyone wanting to have better relationships and better knowledge of self. Thank you!” Stephanie S. (Licensed Professional Counselor, SAC)
  • “This has been so beneficial and insightful! I thoroughly enjoyed how this seminar was taught...with wisdom, humor and real-life examples of vulnerability. Great resource and I have been a counselor for many years! I highly suggest investing in yourself with this training.” JoAnne N. (MSW, LCSW, BCPCC)
  • "One of the most informative, interactive thought process sessions I’ve attended in years. The ‘Impression Management’ teaching was worth the cost of the day alone.” Andy C.



You'll never see yourself or others the same again.


Have you endured counseling that didn't work? HERE'S WHY: Your counseling didn't address the deepest problem—human desires.



Can you answer these questions?


  • What's the deepest cause of marriage problems?
  • Why does your partner act like that?!
  • Why do your children do what they do?
  • Why do you do what you do? (Can you answer this question?)
  • What causes all conflict?
  • What does Cognitive Behavioral Therapy miss?
  • What causes narcissism?
  • Why can children be so mean?
  • Why do people clam up or blow up?
  • Why do children fight?
  • Why do children resist their parents?


Can your counselor/therapist answer these beyond nature/nurture theory?

YOU will be able to answer these questions after the seminar.

This workshop will provide immediate, positive impact (if you apply what you learn).



The next time you're trapped in raw conflict, what would you pay to fix it?


  • Your biggest problem is not your circumstances.
  • Your biggest problem is not the people around you.
  • Your biggest problem is within you.



Join counselor Dave Bender as he reveals the deepest reasons for your marriage, parenting, and relationship conflicts.

NOTE: This unique seminar is entirely not-for-profit. The registration fee is used to cover advertising expenses. We've lost money every time, but that's OK with us because we're glad to help people. If you're not satisfied with what you learned, we will refund your money with no questions asked.

PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM DAVE: As I began to understand and apply this knowledge back in the mid-90s, it began to transform my understanding of myself AND my behaviors immediately. This critical knowledge was a game-changer for me, and I look forward to sharing it with you!
