Allan and Kattie talk in detail about their experience with the Word of Wisdom. They cover their experience, share lessons learned, and discuss some of the tools that couples can use to negotiate the Word of Wisdom.
Many of the tools shared come from our “Workshop on a Tightrope”, a 6-week online course taught by Natasha Helfer Parker, Allan and Kattie. Pre-registration for the course is open now until June 11th at eventbrite.com.
Those that register before June 11th receive $30 off the course, and will receive the additional Sex and Intimacy Masterclass at no additional charge.

I almost felt like I went through all six weeks of the course without having done so yet. Maybe, just maybe I’ll sing up… hopefully my wife will want to join.
One conversation at a time David =) The course seems like it would be helpful if she’s willing to participate. A few couples participate passively, without sharing their names, voice, or video.
We have a few half scholarships available thanks to a kind donor, so let us know if the cost would be a barrier for you.
So very tempting… I will reach out to you in private. Thank you.
