You didn’t expect to end up here:
Googling “how to save a relationship.” Sleeping back-to-back in silence. Arguing about dishes when the truth is… you’re terrified of losing each other.
This program isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s for the ones who still want this. The ones who are holding on but barely. The ones who know something has to change, because the alternative is too painful to name.
You didn’t expect to end up here:
Googling “how to save a relationship,”
Sleeping back-to-back in silence,
Arguing about dishes when the truth is…
you’re terrified of losing each other.
This program isn’t for the faint of heart.
It’s for the ones who still want this.
The ones who are holding on but barely.
The ones who know something has to change, because the alternative is too painful to name.
When love starts to slip through your fingers, everything else does too.
You don’t want to leave. But you can’t keep living like this either. If there’s a chance to save what you’ve built, you want to take it.
Standing in the hallway, caught in the ache of two impossible options: stay and keep hurting… or leave and lose everything
Putting on a smile around friends or coworkers, while silently wondering if they’d still see you the same if they knew how bad it really is
Feeling invisible, like you’re no longer chosen, no longer desired, no longer seen
Snapping at the people you love over small things, then feeling crushed with guilt because you swore you’d never turn into someone who lashes out
And the weight you’re carrying? It looks like this:
You’ve begged. You’ve shut down. You’ve tried everything and nothing changes.
Rebuild your connection without losing yourself in the process
Know how to repair conflict in real-time, not just analyze it later
Feel chosen, cherished, and emotionally safe
Stop walking on eggshells and start speaking your truth, without it blowing up
You want to…
What if this wasn’t the end… but the beginning of everything you’ve been hoping for?
Imagine feeling safe again. in your relationship, and in your own skin. Imagine trust rebuilt, intimacy reawakened, and the steady knowing: “We’re going to be okay.”
This isn’t about pretending everything is fine. It’s about creating something new, on purpose, with real tools, and a whole lot of courage.
Because most people spend more time learning how to drive than how to navigate a relationship.
Think about it: you had to take a class, pass a test, and prove you were safe before they let you merge onto a freeway.
But when it comes to love? You’re expected to just figure it out.
✔No emotional education.
✔No repair tools.
✔No one showing you how to listen without defending, or love without losing yourself.
And yet, relationships are the most important (and complex) thing you’ll ever navigate.
That’s not your fault. But it is your opportunity.
Because once you learn the skills no one taught you, you stop reacting, and start rebuilding.

Introducing The Love For a Lifetime Program
💛 You want to fight for your relationship, but you need a guide who knows the way.
YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH:
— Janet r.
Even though I loved my husband deeply, and still wanted our marriage to work out. I am beyond grateful to say that my marriage has been saved, and my relationship with my husband has been transformed because of this program. I have cancelled and ripped up my divorce papers and received a refund from my lawyer. I am tempted to send my marriage counselor information on your program! Turns out my husband is NOT the narcissist she thought, and our relationship is thriving and growing again.
I was reluctant to get involved in the Love for a Lifetime Program, because my husband and I had tried everything. After a marriage counselor told me my husband was a narcissist and there was no hope, I found a lawyer and began divorce proceedings.
The Clarity Phase: Find Your Ground Before You Find a Fix
The Connection Phase: Relearn How to Relate (Without Losing Yourself)
The Repair Phase: Work With the Wounds, Not Around Them
The Integration Phase: Feel the Shift, For Real
What’s It Really Costing You Not To Fix This?
Let’s be real: you’re already spending the energy, the hours, the brain cycles.
Scrolling late at night.
Googling “how to fix my marriage.”
Arguing about the same thing... again.
Diagnosing your partner with online articles.
Buying the next book. Listening to podcasts. Binging reels.
Trying so hard not to lose it during another tense dinner.
You’re already investing. But what are you getting back?
White-knuckling it
Self-Help Deep Dive
You could book a therapist. Every week. For months. Maybe separately. Maybe together.
Why that won’t really get you what you want:
Traditional therapy isn’t built for acute relationship crisis. You’ll spend the first few sessions “getting to know each other” while the marriage continues to spiral. And let’s not pretend the $200+/hr isn’t adding stress.
Talk Therapy (The Weekly Hope & Pray Method)
01
Talk Therapy
White-Knuckling It
Self-Help Deep Dive
talk therapy
You could throw yourself into self-help.
All the books. All the content. All the late-night research.
Why that won’t really get you what you want:
Reading about tools isn’t the same as practicing them. Knowing what to do ≠ knowing how to apply it in the heat of a fight or a shutdown. Information without structure = overwhelm and guilt.
Self-Help Deep Dive (The DIY Research Binge)
02
You could white-knuckle it. Push through. Hope it’ll get better on its own. Wait for your partner to change.
Why that won’t really get you what you want:
Hope is not a strategy. Meanwhile, resentment builds. Emotional distance grows. And you risk waking up one day realizing you don’t even like each other anymore. That’s not “sticking it out.” That’s slow erosion.

Every day, you spend your emotional energy somewhere, on spiraling thoughts, silent resentment, circular arguments, or the ache of disconnection. You try to keep the peace, hold it together, or make sense of what’s falling apart. But here’s the truth:
You’re already doing the work. You’re just doing it alone… and without a map.
Love For a Lifetime is the container where all that invisible effort finally becomes momentum. Where emotional labor becomes emotional growth. Where fear gets met with structure. And where you stop surviving and start practicing something real: connection, courage, clarity, and change.
Because your energy deserves a better return.
And your love deserves a place to land.
16 hours (Gold) or 8 hours (Silver) of deep, focused 1-on-1 work, solo or as a couple.
This is where we roll up our sleeves and rebuild your foundation. Think: clarity, healing, and skill-building that actually sticks.

“We’re finally able to communicate our needs.”
If you’re trying to save or repair your relationship, or just get clear on what’s really going on, reach out to Staci. She brings realness and calm in a way that makes everything make sense. She’ll give you tools that work, and help you decide what you want. My partner and I are finally at a place where we can hear each other. That’s everything.
“You never walk away from Staci.”
My husband and I were the most stubborn couple you’ve ever met. We didn’t need counseling, we needed communication tools and support. And that’s exactly what we got. We finally understand how to love and listen to each other. Even through the hardest moments, we felt seen, safe, and guided. We left with new skills and a friend who believed in our relationship as much as we did.
— Dee W.
— Mark V.
“We were on the verge of divorce after 20 years.”
I was hesitant to look at myself. No one wants a spotlight on their flaws. But Staci helped me understand how my behaviors impacted my relationship, and how to change them. We’re still doing the work, but we’re doing it together now. Learning to pause defensiveness, stay open, and communicate honestly has shifted everything. I actually look forward to our sessions. They give me hope.
“I didn’t know how much I lost myself.”
Learning how to ask for what I want, and to stay true to myself, has changed everything. I used to shrink or push back out of fear. Now I feel empowered. I’m finding my voice again. Staci helped me understand my feelings, my patterns, and how to show up with love without losing myself. I wish I found this years ago.
— Janine W.
Real People. Real Relationships. Real Repair.
You don’t have to guess if this works. These are real stories from people who were right where you might be now—tired, stuck, searching, and who decided to say yes anyway. What they found? Tools that actually help. Clarity that cuts through the chaos. And the kind of support that makes healing possible.
You don’t have to figure this out alone.
These aren’t just stories, they’re proof that real change is possible when you stop guessing and start practicing the emotional skills that actually work. If your relationship feels heavy, uncertain, or stuck… this might be your turning point.
👉 Ready to build something new, together?
Dr. John Gottman, one of the world’s leading relationship researchers, found that couples who maintain a 5-to-1 ratio of positive to negative interactions during conflict are far more likely to stay together. In fact, his research predicts relationship success with over 90% accuracy.*
But what does five positives even look like when you’re swimming in resentment or walking on eggshells?
Here’s the truth: conflict isn’t the problem. We’re human. We mess up. Trying to avoid conflict is like trying to avoid weather.
The couples who make it don’t fight less. They repair better.
This program doesn’t teach you how to love harder. It teaches you how to repair... how to reconnect after a rupture, regulate when you’re triggered, and stay emotionally present when things feel impossible.
Because repair is the positive. And it’s a skill you can absolutely learn.
Let that sink in: it’s not about the spark, the vows, or the history, it’s about whether you’ve got the tools to handle the hard stuff.
Love can’t carry a relationship. Skills can.

I’m Staci Bartley, and since 2013, I’ve helped over 1,500 people navigate the heartbreak, silence, and second-guessing that comes with relationship limbo. I’ve studied with the greats (Esther Perel, Dr. Tammy Nelson), taught emotional tools inside Fortune 500 companies, and co-host a weekly relationship podcast, but my real qualifications come from lived experience, not a clipboard and a couch. I’ve been divorced (twice), raised six kids on my own, and built a deeply connected marriage from the ground up.
I guide this work alongside my husband Tom and our daughter Brooke. We like to say we’re a family business, with all the mess, love, and midnight brainstorms that come with it. The three of us walk the Roadmap with you every step of the way, and no, we don’t do ivory tower advice. We do real-life skills that actually help.
I’m Staci Bartley, and since 2013, I’ve helped over 1,500 people navigate the heartbreak, shutdowns, and “should I stay or go?” spiral that happens in relationship limbo.
I’ve studied with Esther Perel and Dr. Tammy Nelson, taught emotional tools to Fortune 500 companies, and co-host a weekly relationship podcast, but the truth is, I built this Blueprint because I’ve lived it. I know how lonely it feels when your marriage is on the edge, and how powerful it is to finally learn the skills that bring you back together. This is the exact process I use to help my VIP clients rebuild their marriages and now, I’m handing it to you.
And who am I to walk you through this?
Or you could finally feel at home in it.
You could keep surviving your relationship.
You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s build something better, together.
