ALL COUPLES WANT TO HAVE HARMONY, ENJOY SEXUAL PLEASURE, & FEEL SECURE IN THEIR RELATIONSHIPS

While all couples want to succeed in their relationships, the pressures of their careers, having little room for quality time together, and struggling with feeling alone and unloved can be discouraging.

Many couples in professional sports who are succeeding in their field find themselves merely surviving emotionally, repeating old arguments, facing temptations, drifting apart, and living with great pressure to perform -- at work and at home. As fewer and fewer conflicts get resolved, they begin to suffer from:

  • Unresolved Conflicts
  • Poor Connection
  • Misaligned Sexual Desires
  • Ineffective Communication
  • Diminishing Trust
  • Feeling Unfulfilled

Often, couples achieve career and financial success by working hard and making sacrifices. But our educational systems, sports heroes, and societal norms don’t teach couples the secrets to lasting success in love & marriage relationships. 

Being unhappy in your marriage or relationship is not your fault. You’re trying your best. But deep down inside, you know things could be so much better. 

You don't have to settle for less.

If only you knew how to make love work the way it’s meant to work.

You Need The Love Mastery Method

Built On Rod’s Proprietary Dream Marriage Method
The truth is, when you master awareness of the unique, all-important need you and your partner have, you will be 50% closer to living your dream for love, romance, and unbreakable connection.

Introducing The Love Mastery Method

The Love Mastery Method will help you master the keys to intimacy and understanding—as you learn to strengthen your bond, communicate effectively, resolve conflicts rather than avoid or recycle them, protect your relationship from infidelity, develop a healthy sex life, and rebuild trust.  Love Mastery is built with your success in mind.  

Join highly-acclaimed and highly-motivated couples who have already renewed their relationships by doing the right work behind the scene, so they can shine in public. These couples were tired of pretending and tired of carrying relationship stress with them everywhere they went. So they’ve embraced the step-by-step approach to creating success in their relationships that support their career, financial and family.  

The Love Mastery Method is exclusive coaching for professional athletes using a private concierge approach OR a cohort approach.  You decide which approach you prefer. There’s no need to schedule twenty or more counseling sessions, with someone who is clueless about your unique world when you have this powerful resource at your fingertips. This is not about gaining more information; it's about putting eye-opening principles into action.  Go from awareness, to action, to relationship transformation!

Using the 8-Stage Love Mastery Method, you’ll go deeper than you've ever been, one live session at a time, and apply what you learn, one homework exercise at a time. You’ll be guided by Rod Hairston, M.A. to have safe, engaging, breakthrough conversations. You’ll get to the root of problems (not skip over them) in a non-threatening way. Stay calm. Put down your defenses. And stay the course. In just weeks, go from struggles to an entirely renewed relationship.

Student Praise for Working with Rod Hairston, M.A.

“We’re real people with real stuff in our backgrounds.  A lot of us don’t know how to deal with our emotions given our backgrounds. We need the things you’ve taught us, Rod.”

 

 - Case & Kimberly  NFL -- Houston Texans

“Before marriage coaching, we were stuck in the same cycle of conflict. We now have the tools to see one another’s needs. We are grateful for what we learned through Dream Marriage.”

 

Taron & Meghan NFL -- Buffalo Bills

“Rod, your knowledge has helped me open up to have difficult conversations. The homework exercises helped us take our relationship to the next level. We really appreciate the tools Dream Marriage has given us!.”

- Tre' Davious & Ikea NFL -- LA Rams

“Rod is very good at what he does.  His Dream Marriage Method is the best we've seen.  We've worked with others and what we've experienced with Dream Marriage doesn't compare.”

 

AJ & Kate MLB -- LA Dodgers

“Working with Rod through Dream Marriage has been a transformative experience. We love the space we have to connect deeper and check in with each other. Not only do we feel more connected and on the same page, but we also are communicating with so much more ease. We both love that we’re talking about things we may have not addressed if we didn’t have the Dream Marriage Method. If you’re about to get married or want to feel more connected in your relationship, we highly recommend Rod’s Dream Marriage Method. ”

 

Leo & Hailey NFL -- Seahawks

Who is Rod Hairston? 

Rod has spent a lifetime studying marriage and romantic relationships while working with high-performing, college, and professional athletes. He has discovered the keys to helping highly-successful people have marriage and relationship success–mindset shifts, unpacking their upbringing, and growing emotional awareness.

Being raised by a single mom, he beat the odds to become a 2X Super Bowl champion and successful entrepreneur. He’s accomplished great marriage and career success as a husband of 34 years, father of 4 amazing adult children, author of 3 books, and marriage coach and advisor to highly respected people in the world of professional sports and business.

While all of the above sounds wonderful, the rest of the story is that I struggle just like you. Insecurity grips me hard some days.  I often wonder if I’m making the impact that I dream of making.  And there’s so much that I haven’t figured out yet about life and my driven personality.  But what I’m sure of is this:  marriage absolutely matters.  Sheri and I were products of broken homes.  Every day of our 34-year marriage, we’ve fought hard to create something life-giving for us and for our four adult children. And we’re so glad we did.

What’s Inside The Love Mastery Method? 

The Love Mastery Method goes in depth with coaching couples to deepen intimacy, master communication, grow awareness of emotional needs, protect against infidelity, and build trust. Through well-organized coaching insights, relationships research, and biblical wisdom, you will learn to use the keys for transforming your love life.

Get New Coping Strategies

 We’re all attracted to our spouses for specific reasons and because of very important needs in our lives. Once you're honest about your dreams, you can be honest about your disappointments. Much of what we do in relationships are reactions to broken dreams. You’ll see how life-long coping strategies are derailing your marriage goals and begin taking responsibility for the unhealthy or inadequate ways of handling your relationship disappointments.  In short, you'll learn why you do what you do in your relationship.  It's not what you think it is. Once you get clear about the dreams you're both trying to heal thru your love relationship, you'll begin using a better strategy for success!

Grow Your Emotional Awareness

 Intelligence and the ability to think rationally may be your biggest problem as a couple. Most of us were trained to get good grades by knowing the right information.  Once you begin to understand the power of emotional awareness and emotional connection, you will see changes in your ability to be affectionate and begin looking forward to time together. What they couldn’t teach you about emotions in the educational system, you will learn in Love Mastery . You will be challenged to use a new way of approaching your relationship, going beyond information and rational thinking to embracing the “awkward” of emotional awareness.

Resolve Conflicts Quickly

We all have a consistent way of dealing with conflicts in our marriages. But most couples don’t know how to actually, calmly resolve conflicts in a way that feels satisfying and safe for both people. You’ll learn how to see what each of you need in the midst of conflict and develop the skills you need to keep things from turning into a world war. You'll stop fighting, walking out on each other, or dismissing each other.  Once you know the cues, you’ll never see conflict the same way! Once you master seeing each other instead of being overtaken by anxiety and anger, you’ll stop seeing conflict as a threat to your personal well-being.

Get The "Why" Behind Infidelity

Even good relationships are vulnerable to infidelity.  As the saying goes, "We can't fix what we don't face." Even if your relationship has been spared the pain of unfaithfulness, it's still important to understand what it is, why it happens, and how to protect your love life from the damage infidelity causes.  Once you know the reasons infidelity happens, how to address it if it has happened, and how to heal from it if it has happened, your relationship will have fresh wind.  You will start making different choices to protect your union and leave with a deeper appreciation for the childhood experiences that shaped you and the way you relate to one another.

Communicate for Connection

Rather than the usual “Say it this way” and “Say it back to each other” techniques. You’ll be introduced to multi-dimensional listening–a much more effective approach to couples communication that fosters connection no matter what you’re communicating about. Because every conversation is a negotiation, you will gain a new framework for effective conversations.  Learning how to listen on multiple levels at once is a real skill. Everybody thrives when they feel heard, seen, and felt.

Rebuild Broken Trust

The longer our marriages and relationships are out of sync because of unresolved conflicts and poor communication, the more our trust in one another suffers. Here you’ll learn the dynamics of trust in – how it’s broken and how it’s rebuilt. You’ll discover the framework for daily deepening your trust so you both start feeling secure in your marriage. You can only build trust by being a trustworthy person. As you become that person, you'll begin doing things you never imagined could make such a big impact on your connection.

Heal Old Wounds Together

We’ve all been wounded by something or someone. Sometimes the wounds happened before you were a couple. And sometimes you were the source of wounds to one another. You’ll start going beyond forgiveness and begin the process that helps your spouse heal from past relationship wounds and traumas. You will come to terms with your power to heal, create an environment for healing, and take responsibility to contribute powerfully to your spouse’s healing.

Build A Better Sex Life

Most of us were taught poorly about sex.  Most of us have built relationships with sex that don't serve our relationships.  But once you know the powerful ways that sex can deepen you and deepen your bond, you'll never settle for a lesser approach again.  God gave sex as a gift to married couples and He has pleasure in store that quick fixes and cultural counterfeits can't give you.  Imagine a relationship with no more sexual frustration, pain, emotional stress, and confusion. Better sex begins here!
