Foundations For Forever E-Course

Strong marriages don’t just happen, they’re built with intention. In this opening lesson, you’ll meet the founders of A Soulful Love and your course facilitators, who will guide you through the 10 Steps of Lasting Love. You’ll discover how this program flows, what to expect, and how to set the right tone for your marriage journey.

Marriage is more than a wedding day, it’s a lifelong journey. In this module, you’ll set both personal and shared intentions that will guide your partnership. Through goal-setting and reflection, you’ll learn how to align on values, create emotional safety, and establish a roadmap for growth.

Where you come from shapes how you love. In this module, you’ll use a family genogram activity to explore your family patterns, generational dynamics, and unspoken rules that may be influencing your relationship today. By recognizing these patterns, you’ll gain tools to carry forward what’s healthy and release what no longer serves your future, creating space for generational healing and a stronger marriage.

Culture is at the heart of how we love. In this module, you’ll explore the cultural, spiritual, and societal messages that have shaped your view of marriage. Together, you’ll identify the values and traditions you want to honor, and the ones you may want to leave behind.

Healthy communication is the heartbeat of a lasting marriage. In this module, you’ll learn practical tools like “I” statements, reflective listening, and conflict resolution strategies. You’ll also identify unhelpful patterns that can harm connection, and practice ways to shift them.

Every couple experiences moments of distance, but disconnection doesn’t have to break your bond. In this module, you’ll learn how to recognize when you’re drifting apart and practice using vulnerability as a bridge back to closeness.

Intimacy is more than physical: it’s emotional, spiritual, and rooted in trust. In this module, you’ll explore your beliefs, expectations, and hopes for sex and intimacy. Together, you’ll learn how to communicate openly about desires, comfort zones, and shared values.

Your marriage exists within a larger community: family, friends, church, and beyond. In this module, you’ll map your current support systems, explore the impact of outside influences, and learn how to set healthy boundaries.

Financial stress is one of the top challenges couples face, but it doesn’t have to be. In this module, you’ll explore your money values, family financial history, and current habits. Together, you’ll build a shared vision for financial health and create practical goals for the future.

Empathy and vulnerability are the heartbeat of intimacy. In this module, you’ll practice listening with compassion, sharing openly, and creating emotional safety. Guided exercises will help you deepen your understanding of each other’s needs and strengthen trust. This lesson teaches you how to lean into honesty and tenderness, building a relationship where both partners feel truly seen and supported.

Unspoken expectations can quietly strain a relationship. In this module, you’ll name your individual and shared expectations, clarify assumptions, and practice aligning with love and flexibility. This lesson equips you to prevent misunderstandings, foster mutual respect, and co-create expectations that strengthen your partnership.

Every lasting marriage needs a shared vision. In this module, you’ll craft a relationship mission statement that reflects your values, long-term goals, and the kind of life you want to build together. This lesson helps you design your future with intention, creating a compass to guide your love through every season.

You’ve done the work, now it’s time to celebrate! In this final lesson, you’ll reflect on the growth you’ve made, honor your progress, and receive your Foundations for Forever Certificate of Completion. You’ll also get encouragement for continuing your journey with groups, coaching, or 1:1 support. This is not the end, it’s the beginning of your forever; a living legacy built on love, intention, and the foundation you’ve created together.
