Learn How to Go from Problem Talk to Solution Talk
WHY IS HEARTS RENEWED DIFFERENT?
Most marriage counseling keeps couples stuck in a loop of “problem talk.”
Hearts Renewed helps you break free from that loop and move toward what you actually want in your marriage. It removes the top excuses couples use to avoid getting help
❌ Too expensive? → It’s affordable and accessible online.
❌ No childcare? → Do it from your couch after the kids are asleep.
❌ They don’t get my faith? → This is 100% Catholic, built by professionals who believe what you believe.
❌ It doesn’t work? → This isn’t theory. It’s grounded in what actually helps couples change.
❌ I know more about my marriage than a counselor does → Good. That’s why we teach you to become the expert in what works in your relationship.
We don’t avoid problems—we just don’t get stuck in them. You’ll focus on what you want to experience instead. That shift alone will change everything.

Love Finds a Way
Maxims of a Remarkable Marriage
You still love each other.
You just don’t feel close anymore.
Not because of betrayal.
Not because you stopped caring.
But because life got heavy… and connection slowly slipped into the background.
This short, free e-book is for couples who believe marriage is worth fighting for—but feel unsure how to begin again.
When Love Is Still There—But Feels Far Away
Many couples reach a quiet place they never expected:
- “We feel more like roommates than spouses.”
- “We love each other, but something’s missing.”
- “We’re holding on—but it’s hard.”
You may have prayed more.
Read books.
Listened to podcasts.
Tried to “do the right things.”
And yet the distance remains.
Love hasn’t disappeared.
It’s just buried under exhaustion, responsibility, and unspoken hurts.
This Book Is a Gentle Place to Start
Love Finds a Way is not a program.
Not therapy.
Not another list of things you’re failing at.

- Restore clarity when emotions feel confusing
