Because when you change who you are at your core, everything around you changes—your relationships, your family, your legacy." - Dr. Gloria Lee There’s nothing more important in life than our relationships. Science has proven they shape every aspect of our well-being – from our emotional happiness to our physical health. Yet, most of us were never taught how to truly make them work. We stumble through, hoping love will be enough – only to find ourselves stuck in the same frustrating patterns, struggling to communicate, often feeling unheard, or disconnected. The truth is, great relationships don’t just happen. They’re built, moment by moment, through healthy skills and actions. This two-day retreat is your chance to learn what no one ever taught you: the real, minute-to-minute work that creates lasting connection, trust, and intimacy. Whether you’re in a relationship or single, this is one of the most powerful investments you can make in your future love and happiness. Over two transformative days, you’ll leave behind outdated ways of relating and learn a brand new one rooted in understanding, depth, and real connection.

Kroz razgovore o braku, razvodu i ljubavi, Grlica i Ratimir glavni akteri ove romantične komedije počinju da grade svoj medjusobni odnos i kroz humor i ironiju dotiču univerzalne teme ljubavi, nesigurnosti i međuljudskih odnosa.
