Welcome to The Center for Revolutionary Relationships.

The quality of our lives is based on the quality of our relationships. The quality of our relationships is based on the quality of relationship that we have with ourselves. We cannot be a happy “we” until we are a happy “me”.

Most of the challenges in our lives center around problems with people. Learning how to develop the skills and maintain healthy human relationships can do more for your personal and professional life than anything else you could ever accomplish. Almost 80% of our success in life is solely determined by our social skills, and the ability to interact positively and effectively with others.

The key functions of human relationships include:

  • Emotional Support – providing encouragement, comfort, and validation and times of stress or difficulty.
  • Companionship and Connection – fostering, a sense of belonging and community through interaction and shared experiences.
  • Identity Formation – contributing to self-awareness and self-esteem through interactions with others.
  • Personal Growth – learning and developing through shared perspectives, feedback and different life experiences.
  • Intimacy – building trusting, deep connections with others, based on understanding and shared values.
  • Coping Mechanisms – providing a support system to overcome obstacles and navigate challenges through conflict resolution and collaboration.
  • Reproduction and Family Building – promotes the continuation of the human species.
  • Shared Goals and Experiences – offers a sense purpose by encouraging people to work towards shared goals and create mutual experiences.
  • Well Being and Longevity – Research shows strong social connections are correlated to increased physical and mental health as well as longer lifespans.
