Discover the Relational Skills to Deepen Your Connection & Level Up Your Whole Life

A Vibrantly Alive Relationship Radiates Into Every Aspect of Your Life

Few things affect our energy levels and overall well-being more than the state of our relationship.

Think about it: when there's tension between you and your partner, it’s not just “a relationship problem.” It’s harder to focus at work. It’s harder to sleep. It’s harder to be present with friends.

Unmet problems in your relationship drain your energy and make everything you do harder, slower, less enjoyable.

And on the flipside, how good is it when your relationship isn't just fine, but amazing. When you've got each other's backs, you feel seen and met by each other and your connection is just buzzing with love...

That buzz carries over into every other part of your life. It makes you show up as your best self, brimming with energy and confidence.

Don't get me wrong: upgrading your relationship is 100% worth doing just for the romance, just for the sake of the relationship itself.

But isn't it great that in doing so, you also upgrade your whole life?

Excellent Relationship Skills - Because Why Settle for Less?

We don’t think twice about investing in a gym membership, supplements, overpriced red-light panels and personal trainers to achieve optimal health.

We spend money on productivity tools, career training, financial strategies & education... and of course we do! Those things matter. And if you're into self improvement, if you don't just want to settle for average, you're going to put time, effort and money into what matters most.

But relationships?

We treat them like they should just “work themselves out.” If you mention that you're investing in your relationship, it sounds like therapy for people on the brink of divorce. There’s a stigma. A story that says: if you need help, you must have failed.

Here’s the truth: your relationship is just as important as your health, career, or bank account. In fact, it’s more foundational. The state of your closest bond shapes everything else - your energy, your focus, even your sense of possibility.

If you're optimizing every aspect of your life, why would you assume relationships should "just work"?

And why would you assume that a relationship can't be elevated from good to excellent, with the right tools and knowledge? Doesn't it make sense to explore: just how good can this get?

SHANE'S PERSPECTIVE

Relational Skills & Growth Containers

If you’ve followed my work, you know I’ve been obsessed with growth experiences for a long time. For as long as I can remember, I've been working on how to make personal transformation happen as effectively as possible

Since 2023, this has led me to shift my focus to in-person experiences.

When we step into a shared space, the growth accelerates. The breakthroughs come faster. The results go deeper. That’s why I’ve shifted more and more of my energy from online teaching into live experiences. And it’s why I’ve sought out those experiences for myself too. It's simply led to more growth, faster.

In the last few years, another obsession of mine has been relational skills. I’ve seen how the deepest inner work doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in connection. When you learn to relate differently, to drop your defenses, to stay present in the fire, to welcome vulnerability, you grow as a person and you transform your relationships at the same time.

This retreat is the fusion of those two obsessions: in-person growth experiences + relational mastery. And I’m not doing it alone. I’ve partnered with Eri Kardos, an internationally acclaimed expert in relational skills. Together, we’ve designed a container that brings out the best of what we’ve each been honing for years.

The Workshop Program: Experience Your Relationship Like Never Before

What happens when you enter a container in which everything is dedicated to leveling up your relationship? Here's what we have in store for you:

Communication Tools that Actually Work

You'll be engaging in fun communication games that open up new ways of interacting with each other. But it doesn't end there: what you'll be learning isn't just about how you talk to each other, it's about how you show up. You'll be learning-by-doing a set of communication tools that few people even know exist.

Relearn Love, Rediscover Each Other

Through a series of introspective experiences, you'll see your relationship patterns in a completely different light. You'll understand which limiting stories have been keeping you stuck and how to free yourself from them.

Polarity Instead of Tension

We'll hold breakout sessions with a men's circle and women's circle. Here, we dive into the topic of polarity and how it can become a source of excitement, joy and energy in your relationship instead of a source of tension.

In addition to the structured program, we'll make sure that there is plenty of time to relax, enjoy and integrate. This is also "serendipity time" where you can hang out with the other participants and get Q&A time with the facilitators.

Showing Up As Your Best Self Feels Amazing

Everyone thrives in a relationship where they feel seen, heard and loved and where their needs are being met.

Have you ever been in a relationship situation where you are "keeping score" and resentment builds up about who's giving/sacrificing more than the other? Then you know how awful that feels.

With the right relational tools, you can get into the exact opposite dynamic. One where both of you feel like your cup is over-flowing.

One of the things I love most about this is that it gives me the experience of being a great partner and lover. It's no longer a feeling of scarcity and trying to desperately get enough for myself.

Instead, it feels like I'm getting more than enough and I am glowing with satisfaction because I know how much my partner is delighted by me.

This is the gift of giving. And the best part is: it's a virtuous cycle. Once you get it going, it becomes self reinforcing. 

It's my goal to help you create this virtuous cycle in your relationship - so that it feeds you and radiates outward into every other aspect of your life.
