Say goodbye to repetitive fights that leave you feeling unheard and hello to more ease & connection in your relationship

built to last

introducing

If you're in a loving, committed relationship and feel stuck in the same fights or want to prepare for a happy, lasting future together, this is for you.

If you’re stuck in the same fight over and over, it’s because you’re not resolving it!

Do you want to end these repeated arguments and finally resolve your problems?

If your answer is "heck yes," then building a strong foundation—knowing how to stop the cycle, communicate clearly, and keep your connection strong—is what will help you feel more at ease, connected, and sure that your relationship will last.

Without a solid foundation, old arguments will keep resurfacing and trigger new fights more quickly because you'll expect the same negative reactions, making arguments flare up faster and more intensely.

Real Talk:

So, let me ask you...

Get aligned on the things that are important to you

Build trust and create a safe space for open communication

See each other as a reliable team, without letting fights or tension affect daily life or special moments

Stop small issues from becoming bigger problems later

Feel heard, deeply understood and more connected than ever

Feel confident taking next steps like moving in together, getting married, or having kids

And there's more—a strong foundation will help you…

Buuuut...you keep going in circles

Having the same fights on repeat is stopping you from enjoying the deep, satisfying relationship you desire.


  • These communication breakdowns leave you worried and emotionally drained
  • Frustration builds because you’re not being heard or understood
  • Constant misunderstandings keep you from feeling close and supported
  • You feel stuck and question how you can move forward, let alone bring kids into the picture

Annnnnnndd 

Is not only getting in the way of enjoying your otherwise near-perfect relationship. It’s also making you doubt if it will last, even though you want to spend the rest of your life with your partner and know in your gut that they’re the one for you.

And all this?

  • Something you say hits a nerve with your partner, making them feel attacked
  • Their reaction triggers you, putting you on the defensive
  • One of you wants to talk things through, while the other just wants to shut it down
  • This back-and-forth keeps sending you in circles without solving anything

Here’s what’s happening right now:

So, what does this mean for you?

These issues leave you feeling stuck and frustrated, with a relationship that’s not fully meeting your needs or feeling right, making it hard to connect and plan for the future.

You can break free from these patterns and build a relationship where you truly feel heard, understood, and deeply connected.

But as someone who was once in your shoes, I can tell you it doesn’t have to be this way!

Lovebird, I hear you!

A few years ago, even though I loved my partner and knew I wanted to spend my life with them...







I seriously questioned whether we could make it work—especially if we were to add something like a kid into the mix. 

The smallest things would set us off, like choosing a movie, and those tiny decisions would spiral into weekend-long blowouts. It was exhausting!

As a relationship counsellor with nearly a decade of experience, I knew there had to be a way for us to communicate better, but since I couldn’t be our therapist (though I sometimes wished I could), we had to figure it out through lots of trial and error.

By working on our foundation—understanding our fights, communicating clearly, and finding ways to repair and reconnect—we eventually turned things around.


And since then?

01

We can recognize when we're triggered and know how to calm ourselves down

02

We stopped having big blowups because we can keep fights from getting out of control












03

We have meaningful conversations that help us meet in the middle

04

We quickly repair arguments and revisit them when needed without getting stuck in them




05

The best part? We got married this spring, feeling confident our relationship is built to last












These changes made us feel so much closer—and now, I’m here to help YOU experience that same transformation!

Understand your fight cycle and learn how to keep your emotions in check to stop fights from spiralling






#1 Stop the Cycle of Conflict

Level up your communication to truly hear and understand each other, so you find common ground













#2 Connect through Conversations

Have ways to repair after fights, and keep your connection strong to protect against future issues






#3  Repair & Reconnect

The 3 steps that make the
Built to Last a game changer

I’ve poured all my personal and professional experience into Built to Last, so you can continue to love on your partner for decades to come—without the heartache of endless fights and doubts.






To go from this:

Feeling stuck in endless arguments and not really understanding each other

Feeling deeply connected because you're able to have meaningful conversations that bring you closer

Watching a small request, like asking to put shoes away, turn into the same old fight that ruins the whole weekend

Getting through the weekend without the usual argument, feeling more at ease and certain about your relationship

Walking on eggshells, afraid to say the wrong thing because your partner might get defensive and shut down

To this:

Sharing your thoughts and feelings without fear, knowing your partner will listen without getting defensive

Imagine how it'll feel...

Never really resolving issues, and constantly worrying about what it means for your future

Tackling issues as a team and feeling confident in your ability to handle anything that comes your way

If it sounds pretty damn good, then…

Say goodbye to repetitive fights that leave you feeling unheard, and say hello to more ease and connection in your relationship.

I really believe that recognizing your triggers can make a huge difference, as it helped us understand the reasons behind negative behaviours and patterns of interaction. We have since found better ways to communicate and resolve our problems.

Hi, I'm Alexa!

So, why am I the right person to help you in your relationship?

I teach individuals and couples the fundamental relationship skills that should have been taught in school.

With nearly a decade of experience as a relationship therapist, I’ve seen firsthand how essential a strong foundation is for lasting love. When communication breaks down, it can lead to dissatisfaction, feeling like you’ve settled, or even divorce.

That’s why I created Built to Last—a 9-week program designed to help couples strengthen their bond before small issues turn into bigger crises. You’ll gain the tools and support you need to say goodbye to fights that hurt your connection and  build a happy, healthy relationship that lasts.

You might be thinking, "This sounds amazing, but my partner would never go for it."

Here’s why that doesn’t matter:

While your partner is totally welcome to go through Built to Last with you, I designed it so you can get the benefits whether they join you or not.
I know not all partners are ready to get support, and I don’t want that to stop you from getting the help you need to start making changes in your relationship!

And the best part?

When one person makes changes, the other will naturally follow. It’s like a dance—if one person gets better at dancing, the other has to keep up! So yes, you can reap ALL the benefits of Built to Last even if your partner isn't directly involved.

You're in the early years of your relationship—living together, engaged, or newly married—and noticing frequent communication breakdowns







This Is Perfect for You If…

You love your partner and knew early on that you wanted to spend your life with them. You’re committed to making things work, even while figuring some things out

Lovebird, this was made for you!

Your fights start small but quickly spiral out of control. You don’t feel safe bringing up these conversations, so you avoid them, which keeps the cycle going

You want to address these issues before taking next steps like starting a family, as they make you question how to move forward and handle future challenges

How is this different from couples therapy?

This program is different from therapy because it provides a clear step-by-step framework, is short-term, and focuses on specific outcomes. Unlike counselling, it doesn’t dive deep into relationship dynamics, emotional experiences, or root problems, and it doesn’t offer mediation between partners.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my benefits?

Built to Last is a coaching program and shouldn't be claimed as counselling. However, you may be able to use your health spending account, depending on your company's policies. Always check with your benefits provider to confirm.

How can I maintain my privacy in a group setting?

You can ask questions without sharing specific details about your relationship by discussing issues in general terms. For instance, you might say, "What if I bring up a concern and my partner doesn’t respond well?" instead of sharing their exact response.

What if I can't make a call live?

If you can’t join a live call, you can pre-submit your questions and watch the replay whenever it works for you.
