The Intentional Relationship
Genuine Intimacy Begins With You
Discover a Direct Path to Lasting Connection that Works with (Not Against) Your Attachment Styles.
Actionable tools for rapid, self-guided transformation.
No more endless talk therapy.
Real intimacy begins when you stop trying to fix your partner and start mastering your own emotional maturity. We’ll guide you through the exact shifts that match your dynamic and break your painful cycle for good, so you both finally feel understood and connected.
The Real Reason You're Here
You’ve already felt it. The chaos and confusion of a pattern that keeps repeating in your relationship. The Compatibility Decoder named it: the way you both love, protect, react, or pull away when things get tense. It likely felt like it was describing your life: one of you chases closeness while the other withdraws for space, leaving you both hurt and frustrated.
You saw your attachment-style pairing (in the graph from The Compatibility Decoder). Now, this course is where you turn that clarity into action, step-by-step, so that the painful, confusing chase-and-withdraw cycle becomes calm repair and real closeness.
Maybe you’re the one who reaches for connection, only to be met with criticism or stone-cold silence when all you want is reassurance.
Or maybe you shut down when things get emotional, because keeping the peace feels safer than another fight or being misunderstood.
Either way, you’re exhausted and emotionally starved, living in a loop you can’t seem to break. Each round of conflict and distance leaves you more anxious, lonely, and questioning your own worth.
And deep down, you know these reactions are really just protection for both of you. Still, you can’t help wondering if it’s you, if maybe you’re “too needy” or somehow not enough to make this work. If only you knew how to feel safe, seen, and respected at the same time…
This is why you’re here.

Why This Course Exists
The Intentional Relationship takes what The Compatibility Decoder revealed; your unique attachment mismatch, and shows you exactly how to turn that insight into real change. This program directly addresses the chaos, pain, and confusion caused by mismatched attachment styles. It offers a path out of the anxious-avoidant trap and into a calmer, healthier connection. You’ll learn how to:
Stop the anxious–avoidant “chase-and-retreat” pattern that’s been driving you both crazy.
Speak in a way your partner can truly hear you (no more walking on eggshells or blowing up in frustration).
Rebuild emotional safety so that love can breathe again instead of feeling suffocating or scarce.
Turn conflicts and silences into calm repair and closeness instead of high drama followed by stonewalling.
Understanding your attachment wiring was just the first step. Now it’s time to retrain the pattern—and rebuild the relationship you both still want, with clarity and confidence.

If you don’t feel a shift, you pay nothing.
What You Want
You want peace. Not the uneasy quiet that comes from walking on eggshells.
You want connection. Not at the cost of losing yourself.
You want to feel loved, seen, and valued for who you are, not just for what you give.
You want to stop having the same fight over and over and to break the cycle where every argument ends in days of painful silence.
You want your partner to finally understand you. Not shouting matches, but through moments of calm, genuine understanding.
You want to stop over-analyzing everything, stop blaming yourself, and stop pretending you don’t care when deep down you care so much.
Most of all, you want to wake up feeling safe in love again. To trust that you can be close without losing your freedom, and set boundaries without losing the relationship. You want an end to the rollercoaster of high-conflict blowups followed by cold disconnection.
That’s what you’ve been trying to create all along. You just haven’t had the roadmap. Until now.
What You'll Get
You’ll get a clear, compassionate framework for understanding yourself and your partner. Not through blame or labels, but through emotional clarity, inner calm, and mature connection. In other words, you’ll gain the clarity, grounding, and communication mastery to finally change your relationship pattern. Specifically, you’ll learn how to:
Interrupt the anxious–avoidant loop before it spirals out of control.
Recognize when you’re emotionally flooded and ground yourself back to calm fast (mastering emotional self-regulation).
Speak in a way your partner can actually hear you, so you stop getting dismissed or misunderstood.
Build trust without “chasing” or “withdrawing” – no more begging for attention or running away from conflict.
Restore safety and intimacy, one real moment at a time – so closeness stops feeling so fragile.
This isn’t dry theory. You’ll get step-by-step lessons, short videos, and simple practical tools you can use immediately in real life.
You’ll also get something subtle but powerful: hope. Not false hope or fairy-tale fantasy, but hope grounded in real skills. Hope that this time, you’ll know exactly what to do to make love feel safe and fulfilling again.
And if it doesn’t work for you? You’re completely covered by our 30-day money-back guarantee. This isn’t about pressure – it’s about giving you peace of mind that you have zero risk in trying. We take on the risk, so you can focus on transforming your relationship.
$0 today. No risk. Just real change.

From Quiz Insights to Real Change

Built for all attachment style combinations (yes, especially anxious–avoidant mismatches like yours).
Step-by-step skills tailored to the exact pattern you just discovered about yourselves.
Designed for real life – short videos, practical exercises, and quick wins that fit into your busy days.
No matter what your attachment styles are, the process adapts to you. This is not a one-size-fits-all approach; it’s customized to help your dynamic find its balance.

Beyond “Just Relationship Issues” - Healing the Root Cause
Your struggles aren’t just about who forgot to do the dishes or how you argue – it goes deeper than generic “communication issues.” The truth is, you’re both reacting from old attachment wounds formed long before you met each other. These deep patterns drive the chaos:
You may have learned to trade your authenticity for acceptance (hiding your true feelings to avoid rejection).
You may have learned to secure love through compliance (people-pleasing and walking on eggshells to feel safe).
You might be stuck in patterns of self-protection and self-betrayal, because no one ever taught you how to create healthy attachment.
No wonder that simple communication tips haven’t solved the problem – the problem lives underneath, in how you learned to survive emotionally. And you already sense it: this isn’t going to be fixed by just “talking it out” or pretending everything is fine.
If you want to break through these ingrained patterns without spending years in therapy, keep reading – because that’s exactly what this program is designed to do.
How Real Change Happens (Our Approach)
You don’t need a random assortment of “relationship tips” or yet another conversation that goes nowhere. You need emotional accountability and a proven process. Here’s how we facilitate real change:
Honor Each Other’s Humanity: Discover how to honor your partner’s feelings and needs exactly as you wish yours to be honored. (Mutual empathy replaces mutual blame.)
No More Control or Compliance: Stop unconsciously demanding compliance or shrinking yourself to avoid conflict—start creating true equality and partnership.
Build Safety Through Respect: Learn to create safety from genuine respect and understanding, not through walking on eggshells, ultimatums, or control.
From Negotiation to Connection: Shift your relationship from cautious negotiations (“I’ll only open up if you do”) to authentic, surrendered connection where you both feel secure.
This program doesn’t “fix” you because you are not broken. Instead, it empowers you to transform your relationship dynamics by mastering your own emotional maturity. You become the change agent:
No psychobabble – we keep it real and relatable.
No BS – we call out the tough truths with compassion.
Step-by-step – we break down each skill into manageable steps.
By holding up a mirror to your patterns and giving you concrete tools, we guide you to become the secure, steady partner that can turn things around (even if your spouse isn’t on board yet). Real change happens with you, and we’re here to show you how.

This Course Is For You If:
✅ You’re tired of feeling emotionally starved and on edge in your relationship. You feel unseen or unheard, and you’re always waiting for the next fight or the next painful silence to hit.
✅ You’ve tried therapy or self-help tools, but still feel stuck in the same patterns. Insight alone hasn’t led to the lasting change you crave.
✅ You’re committed to looking at your own role in the relationship and growth process, instead of just blaming your partner. (You know it takes two, and you’re ready to do your part.)
✅ You want real intimacy and deep emotional safety – not just polite, surface-level peace. You’re aiming for a breakthrough, not a Band-Aid.
✅ You’re ready to invest in your relationship and yourself – emotionally and mentally. You’re done waiting for your partner to magically change, and you’re prepared to lead the change with new skills and a new mindset.
If this sounds like you, you’re exactly who we built this for. You’re not alone, and there is a way forward.
(On the fence? Remember: you can try the entire program for 30 days for FREE, since it’s $0 today, before you decide if it’s right for you.)
Please Don’t Enroll If:
❌ You’re looking for a quick fix without any effort. (This course is straightforward and efficient, but it does ask you to reflect and practice new skills.)
❌ You only want validation or sympathy and aren’t interested in taking accountability. (We will absolutely validate your feelings, but true growth requires honesty with yourself.)
❌ You believe only your partner is the problem and refuse to consider changing your own approach. (This program works when you work it—blame won’t get you results.)
❌ You’re not ready to invest time or emotion into improving your relationship. (If you’re not at least a little uncomfortable with the idea of changing, the status quo will persist.)
We say this with love: this course is designed to create real change, and that only happens with your open mind and heart. If you’re not there right now, that’s okay – but this might not be the right time for you.

Meet Anthony (Your Guide)
Anthony Santen, CT, SAC Dip (Adv. Psychotherapy)
Founder & Creator of The Intentional Relationship
26-Year Relationship Recovery Specialist
Anthony isn’t your typical therapist. He’s a relationship counselor and coach with over 25 years of hands-on experience helping couples break toxic cycles and rebuild healthy, loving marriages. His approach centers on emotional maturity, personal accountability, and practical skills.
Early in his career, Anthony realized that couples don’t need endless venting sessions or abstract theories—they need a clear, structured method to break reactive patterns, rebuild emotional safety, and create genuine intimacy. After working with thousands of couples (yes, thousands), he developed The Intentional Relationship approach to distill what truly works.
Anthony has seen it all – high-conflict marriages on the brink of divorce, partners stuck in anxious–avoidant dances, you name it. Using his no-BS yet deeply empathetic style, he has guided couples from frustration, blame, and heartbreak to real partnership, mutual respect, and lasting intimacy. This course is the culmination of those decades of experience, packaged so you can access his guidance anytime, anywhere.
When you join, you’re not just getting “content” – you’re getting Anthony’s hard-won insights and step-by-step guidance. He’ll be with you (virtually) each step of the way as you transform your relationship dynamic.
(You can eve book optional 1-on-1 sessions with him if you need additional assistance!)
Still Have Questions
No. This is a self-paced online course (with an option to add 1:1 sessions if you choose). You’ll learn tools, strategies, and insights on your own time – you can go through it together with your partner, or solo. It’s not about diagnosing or digging into childhood memories for months; it’s about actionable change now. (And if you do want personal help, you can book Anthony for private sessions at 25% off as a student.)
We designed it to be very manageable: about 90–120 minutes per week is plenty to watch the videos and try the exercises. Some couples do one module a week; others binge multiple modules in a weekend. You have lifetime access and flexible pacing, so you can go as fast or slow as you need. Even if you’re busy, you can fit this in and start seeing results.
No. While it’s wonderful to do together, many of our students start on their own. The beauty is that your changes in behavior and emotional clarity will shift the relationship dynamic – even if your partner isn’t actively doing the course. Often one partner’s growth inspires the other to join in later, but it’s not required to see improvements. You’ll learn to lead by example.
It’s self-paced and outcome-focused. There are 16 modules. Most couples complete it in about 12–16 weeks if they do roughly a module per week. But you can absolutely go faster or slower. Some finish in 8 weeks; others spread it over 6 months. It’s totally up to you and what feels right. There's no time limit.
Many participants report feeling a shift in the first few days – sometimes even after the very first module, you’ll have a new perspective that eases some tension. The more tangible transformations (improved communication, less fighting, more intimacy) build over the following weeks as you practice the skills. By the end of the course (or even halfway), most couples say things feel dramatically different than before. Remember, you have a month free to see these initial changes for yourself.
Yes. All lessons are online, and you can access them on any device. It’s 100% private, self-guided, and convenient. No scheduling, no travel, no awkward group sessions. Just you (and your partner if they join) learning in your living room, on your own schedule.
You’re not alone – that’s exactly why we created this program. Traditional therapy can be great for insight, but it often doesn’t give concrete tools for day-to-day change, and it can be slow. The Intentional Relationship is different: it’s structured, focused on the present and future, and teaches you practical skills each week. We emphasize rebuilding and re-learning patterns rather than just revisiting old wounds. Many couples who felt let down by therapy have succeeded with this course because it’s more action-oriented.
Three big differences: (1) It’s attachment-style aware – we tailor advice to your pattern (most courses ignore this). (2) It’s not fluff or just motivational talk; it’s grounded in psychology and neuroscience research, but broken down into real-world steps. (3) It’s proven – developed by a specialist with 25+ years experience and refined with real couples, not a blogger’s opinion. Also, you’re getting lifetime access for one price, whereas coaching can cost thousands for a limited time. Essentially, this is deeper than coaching, but more actionable than therapy.
Absolutely, yes. In fact, many couples use the tools from this program to enhance their therapy sessions. Think of this course as giving you the skill practice and mindset shifts that make therapy more effective. Counselors have even referred clients to this course to accelerate their progress. There’s no conflict in doing both – they can complement each other well.
Then you shouldn’t have to pay for it. Really. You have a full 30 days to try the course from the day you enroll. Dive in and complete as much as you like. If you don’t love it, just send us an email at any time in that window and we’ll issue a prompt, full refund. No hoops to jump through, no hard feelings. Our goal is for every student to feel it was 100% worth it. If it’s not delivering that for you, we insist on giving your money back. Your trust matters.

TL;DR
Stop Waiting for Change.
Create It.
You could keep doing what you’ve been doing… keep waiting for your partner to magically understand you, to show up differently, or to finally “get it.” You could stay on the emotional rollercoaster, hoping something will change on its own.
OR, you could take the leap to become the partner who leads the change – with maturity, emotional accountability, and genuine respect. Real intimacy isn’t something you find or luck into. It’s something you build—starting with you.
You have more power than you think. The tools and guidance in this course will help you tap into that power, so you can transform your marriage from the inside out. It’s time to step off the anxious-avoidant merry-go-round and onto solid ground.
Real love, safety, and connection are within reach. You just need the roadmap and the courage to take the first step.
Stop waiting. Start building the relationship you deserve – today.
