She is sharing her five distinct stages of cycles

MERGE ---The beginning romance of love, in which we experience our partner as thoroughly delightful ---even perfect---soul mate.

DOUBT AND DENIAL – Settling into more predictable routines with our partner, we begin to see your lover in a new, less flattering light.

DISILLUSIONMENT – Conflicts have grown and become magnified and an all-out power struggle characterized by self-protective strategies and grudge bearing.
 
DECISION - In this phase, couples arrive at a crisis and are forced to make a decision about the future of their relationship.

WHOLEHEARTED LOVING - The couple chooses work hard on the relationship and embrace both the difficulty and the possibility of this transformational path.
Please bring your pen and paper to make important notes. See you there!
