My Steps To Forever
So here is how it started...
As a counselor with years of experience, I've learned that the most transformative moments in relationships often come from the questions asked, not the answers given. Understanding in any relationship begins with asking the right questions.
My journey to writing Steps To Forever began in the quiet moments between sessions, where I witnessed how a simple question could unlock deep truths, mend broken connections, and lay the groundwork for a lasting partnership. Many couples knew they needed to talk, but they didn’t know where to start.
