Marriage Helper saves marriages and strengthens families

Meet Kim Beam Holmes, CEO of Marriage Helper. 

Kimberly Holmes, CEO of Marriage Helper, knows a thing or two about divorce and reconciliation - she was born after her parents divorced and remarried… each other! They used that experience to create Marriage Helper, a series of workshops to help couples headed for divorce, and now Kimberly is following in their footsteps, to great success. Over 250,000 people have gone through Marriage Helper and 3 out of 4 couples end up reconciling after the experience! As Kimberly says their mission is “saving marriages and strengthening families.”

Join us as we discuss some of the secrets to Marriage Helper’s success - did you know there are more types of attraction than just physical? - to tips from Kimberly on balancing being in a relationship with being a wife. You’ll even get some insight as to why Marriage Helper doesn’t work for that last couple!
