Meet the couple behind The Couples Academy.

We're Chris and Sarah, and we're your personal parenthood cheerleaders.

We're right there with you.

Parenthood is such a roller coaster, isn't it? And if you're anything like us, no one warned you for all the ups, downs, twists, and turns. But here's the thing: Roller coasters are meant to be fun.

We started Couples Academy to help couples just like you enjoy the heck out of each other—even as you tackle the challenges of parenthood.

The divorce rate is higher for people who have kids than people who don't.

As children of divorced parents, that statistic is deeply personal to us. We know what's at stake, and we're determined to do something about it.

The truth is, your relationship does not have to suck just because you have kids. And by strengthening your connection and communication, you set your kids up for their own relational success... and for their kids' relational success.

Yep, it's that big of a deal.

Parenthood is work, but our goal is to help you develop skills, and give you a plan to proactively handle every situation—so no matter what your particular parenthood journey looks like, you land with both feet on the ground. Together.

Kim - Noteworthy Parenting

"After having our son we struggled with balance as most parents do, but we didn't know how or what to work on. After taking Partners2Parents we were able to identify not only the areas where we needed help, but also real ideas on how to improve them. After the classes we found that we gave more grace and understanding to each other which has definitely been helping."

Kristi + Spencer

"I'm like EVERYONE NEEDS THIS."
