Dell A
Harrisburg, SD
“I have a burden for marriages in my church and community and family. Jamie, my wife, and I have adapted the principles of Marriage Foundation and it revolutionized our marriage. We are 54 years wed but only in the past few years have learned the keys to happy and enduring love through your materials and concepts.”
Gibson W
Big Creek, CA
“Your program is wonderful and I am remarried, 4 years now. Everything is wonderful, and my new wife is a psychologist.”
Harlan B
Chattanooga, TN
“I have been adopting the SEW technique over the past 3-4 weeks now, and things have really calmed down between me and my wife. We are able to have a decent conversation about our basic day to day stuff. At times she does flare up, however I immediately utilize the SEW technique as much as I can, which I am trying to practice every day.”
Jose Y
Paramount, CA
“My husband was in tears and told me that he loves me. Thank you for your positivity and all the reassurance. I now know that I’m on the right track in getting my marriage back and better!!! You are AWESOME!!! God Bless You!”
Kaye V
Boonville, MO
“Hello, I know I have so much work to do, but I think this program finally clicked for me about a week and a half ago. I have been able to change negative thoughts to thoughts (and thereby actions) of love. I feel love for my husband and am seeing him in a different way. It has been life changing the past week. He has been treating me with love also. Doing things that he hasn’t done for me in a long time. It’s been so beautiful”
Sonia L
Olivette, MO
“Hello Counselor,
Just saying hi and thanks. In September my husband told me he was having an affair and wasn’t sure he wanted to stay married. With your help, I have been working really hard- sometimes I slip up and that’s usually when I write in. The responses always step me back on track. Here I am some months later preparing to celebrate our wedding anniversary! September seems like a lifetime ago and I’m still reviewing the course material periodically. I just want to say thanks for the support and the lessons. I am truly seeing the vast power that I have in my marriage- just as you said. God bless you all.”
Shana P
San Angelo, TX
“He asked if I needed any help today and and helped with housework and cleaning out my car. I appreciate and love him so much, and am very grateful that we are in your prayers and that I’ve learned so much wisdom from the course”
Elenora S
Chicago, IL
“Hi there. I just finished taking notes on Dealing with a Cheating Husband . It’s such a beautiful concept. I genuinely appreciate Paul’s view on free will his candid views are revolutionary. They make more sense than anything I studied in my two or three psychology classes. If I had a choice between the master’s degree education I received or TMF’s courses, I’d pick TMF. TMF made more of a difference in my life than anything else I’ve encountered. TMF is better than any religious text, although I enjoy reading sacred texts. Thank you for bringing light and joy into this world!”
Tracie S
Kissimmee, FL
“Thank you so much for everything All my life has changed in a great and magnificent ways. I can’t deny that my life is becoming clear and I know where I am going and why . Many positive things happen. The most important thing is that I don’t fight or start arguments ….i now express my fearless love …..I feel peace and energetic”
Francine M
Gulfport, MS
“Dear Paul, I purchased your course recently and wanted to ask you, if you could kindly share some wisdom on how to practice opening your heart, to your husband but also generally to the world? Are there any daily practices you could recommend? Thank you so much for your work.”
Ciara A
Cypress, CA
“Another great video. I began this video whilst in a foul mood because sometimes I feel so emotionally neglected by my husband. Today is particularly difficult & I was looking for content relative to how I feel & your videos are always sooo uplifting. Your views also align with my Christian views whether you are aware of that or not. In Christianity we are to be patient, kind, & long-suffering, which is tough but necessary. Thank you.”
Eunice E

Emil N

“Growing up without a father, I never got to really see or learn how a husband loves a wife. I’ve been married to my soul mate, best friend and love of my life for, four years now and last night she asked me a simple question… What do I do to show her that I love her. I couldn’t really answer the question and I’ve realised I need to better. love your videos mate your very wise.”

“Paul this is an Excellent video .. I would say to date it’s one of your best . I don’t consider myself to be a wife who is difficult to please.. still I think each of your suggestions address areas within my marriage which account for my happiness on a daily basis . My new husband is a wonderful man on many levels. Most of your points he addresses quite naturally, & there are a few he could look at more deeply . This video articulates those areas nicely .I will share these with him . Thank you”
Jasmin M

“Hi Mr. Friedman I recently subscribed to your channel and I am enjoying your content because most of it hits home with my marriage and we are going into 2 years of marriage and I need to learn to control my anger towards my wife, and seriously she has a mouth on her but she has a kind heart and I’m still trying to learn and understand her to a point that she has been defending herself for years and now that we are married I am letting my anger close her heart to me so I am putting all of your info to work in helping our marriage to not fall apart. Thank you and I’ll keep on looking and using your content to help keep our marriage on track.”

Arline J

“You are soooooo Correct. I have pushed my husband to this and I have taken the course. I admit I have done some backsliding and pray it is not too late to still make a difference back to where it was heading. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I need to go through the course again.”
Janel D
Rush Center, KS
“I took Paul’s course and have learned to not reacting to my wife’s behaviour and just love her as she is and not make things worse. This is my 3rd marriage and thank God I came to find his solution. Marriage therapy never worked for any of my three marriages. Thank you Paul!”
Micheal B
Independence, OH
“I am an engineer. After 2 divorces I “mapped” out the human condition and came to the same conclusions as Paul. I then took his courses and have bettered myself as a human soul with info I was never taught. I have still not yet met my soul mate (or even a girl friend), but I have found a way of life and happiness I choose as the evolution of my soul, and I like it! Thanks Paul; I hope you will create a course for those who are not married too, as I believe this/your philosophy is a divine path to happiness, love and dignity.”
Harvy L
Arlington, VA
“You’re speaking directly to my spirit’s heart! EVERYTHING you’re laying down feels like it’s coming from a place of truth and Love. Thank you for these gentle reminders… I will begin to apply what I can here and now. Much Love & Grace to you and everyone connected in this shared experience.

“Thank you so much. My mouth I have conquered, the energy from my thoughts is my daily work. Making the S.E.W. technique my habit each time that first thought comes is my daily, moment by moment lifetime goal with my husband and in LIFE and meditation and letting the tears flow as they need to. Thanks again ❤️” Dawn

“Even Paul has said everyone has their breaking point and this week was mine. I was almost catatonic at one point, so all things considered the SEW this week has been a life saver. I have stopped taking the anxiety medication and am practicing reading listening to SEW all day long for the past week.”
Angel E
Amboy, WA
“All things great In one day I will write for you how much my life has changed in very positive way I can feel my husband’s guard coming down a bit, even in just the last 24 hours. I’m truly shocked but am hesitant to feel excited. But that’s not using SEW now is it? Lol”
Sandie B
Penn, ND
“I believe she has decided not to leave and not to give up on the marriage. She met with our pastor’s wife yesterday and I heard it was a very good meeting.”
Brannon B
Ft Lauderdale, FL
“Hey there, Just wanted to give an update. As I’ve worked on myself and focused on making all of my interactions with my wife positive experiences where I’ve been intentional to be respectful, courteous, considerate, kind, and helpful with the kids and a number of things, I’ve seen progress everyday. My wife is engaging me in conversation. Two days ago she brought me lunch. Tonight she told my son to bring her phone over to me so I could watch the video on it and laugh with them. I felt a very good moment there as she watched me and waited to see my laughter as I watched it. These are all good things and I seem to see more of them everyday.”
Claude A
Los Angeles, CA
“Thanks, the course has been challenging and helpful. I try to employ as many of the techniques as possible in my daily interactions with my wife and also know I have a long way to go to break my bad habits. Thanks for your support.”

Jeffrey C
New Haven, CT
“Paul is humble but exceptionally wise! He transformed my life into a tremendous place. I can’t thank him and TMF enough. His wisdom is so far-reaching! You’ll see more of it in the TMF Counselor course. How does one human become so evolved that a half-hour discussion has infinitely beautiful implications? He’s my guru. He’s a Saint!”
Eugene M
Midland, TX
“I’m a wife and mother of 2. I watched your video on being a better wife to my hubby. Loved it. Only rolled my eyes once lol. Everything else was spot on. I am a little surprised the message for women was a half hour long and the message for men was 7 minutes. But if you think about it, we women talk a bit more and need more clarification most times lol. Makes sense. Keep up the good work sir!”
Debra M
Fridley, MN
“Thank you so much for your precious advice, your videos could literally save a lot of marriages, thanks for your valuable time and insights. I love how your videos inspire people to become wiser, merciful and peaceful in handling matters.”

“Hi there. Kindly note that the TMF Counselor course is impressive! I’ve gained infinite knowledge from this experience and can hardly wait to learn more.”
Norman E
Orlando, FL
“Dear Team!
I hope you are all doing well!
I confess that it took me a LONG time to complete the course! Although some of the knowledge has been there, controlling my mind and emotions were so so hard! The problems would always speak louder and I would continue with my old behavior! It was only until I heard my husband say for the first time the word divorce! It shook me! I ran to Paul’s YouTube page and found his advice in regards to what to not do if your husband asks for a divorce! I tried to follow the steps and also ran back to complete the course! I can say that once my behaviour shifted my husbands mood also shifted INSTANTLY! The house was a lot more peaceful, I was taking accountability for my behaviour and mistakes, my feminine side started flourishing and he calmed down! I am now going through the course again and will continue to do so until I am the person I truly want to be! There is still a female friend in the picture from my husband’s side but now more than ever I believe she will go, without me fighting them! The more I fought the more he would run to her. I am truly focused on me and my growth and looking forward to do everything with love from now on!”’

Nicole D
Two Buttes, CO
“I have really enjoyed your you-tube videos! I have a truly wonderful marriage of 18 years and 5 sweet kids and are always looking to improve and be a better wife and mother. So much of the advice I hear makes no sense! Learning how to fight? I find our marriage is golden when we lovingly care for each other. I left a lucrative job I loved 12 years ago and miss the intellectual stimulation so I am enjoying learning from your videos. Have a beautiful day and keep up the hard work.”
Jean J

Chester
Pacifica, CA
“Hi! I just wanted to let you know I am forever grateful that I came across this website. My husband has told me he’s noticed my changes in responses to situations. He wanted a divorce in December and I was devastated. I started the women’s course immediately and practiced the SEW method every second. I even told my children about it because it’s beneficial to all aspects of life. He told me at the end of January that he doesn’t want a divorce anymore. Since then it’s been great! I can’t even compare it to anything else. I’m so so so happy to have had this opportunity to learn about my biology, the trauma responses I’ve always acted on, the reasons why I react so negatively. The perspective I’ve learned throughout the course is immeasurable. I will recommend this course to everybody I know. It’s beneficial to everybody regardless of martial status, age or gender. The logic and explanation seems like common sense but for me it opened my eyes and heart to so much. I feel happier and fee l like I have clarity and know my purpose now. I will share and practice all the knowledge I’ve learned for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for all the work and dedication you’ve put into these courses.”
Yazmin

“Two weeks ago we were at a party. And he said that I had changed and that I was becoming my old self. I didn’t realize that I had changed but if that’s what I have to do to win him back then I will do that. We had a little Romantic moment reminiscing about our Marriage and our Sons. I was feeling great and think that maybe the “Shift” has happened. “
Marylou
Columbus, OH
“I am Optimistic that we can Save our Marriage. I know that we still Love Each Other. He again calls me “Honey” and I still call him “Babe,”. Every morning we Train & Exercise together. When we talk to each other in a nice way. By Using the S.E.W technique. I feel I have come a long way since I started the course, and feel that I’m ready for the next section Module 3”

Lois
Modesto, CA
“Thank U so much for your videos. Especially this one. I’ve been separated from my husband for 5mths, and we just can’t seem to get the communication right even though we’ve been seeing each throughout the separation. We always seem to butt heads and wind up fighting over the least little things. I’ve tried other relationships videos and courses but nothing seem to work. Until I came across yours. I really love the way U express how we should express love and support, and learn to communicate better so we can get along and have a happy marriage. And it’s starting to work. But, it does take work. Thank U so much. Now I have hope again, and will not give up on my 10yr marriage.”

“Thank u so much for those videos. I watched a lot of videos about marriage and almost every video made me even more insecure about my man and marriage. But the things u say really give me a lot of hope in this dark place im currently in. And the things u say r so realistic. God bless u for your good work and help”
Bryana
Denver, CO
“Good morning, I hope you are terrific today. I began the course for men on January 24 and thought I was progressing as I began to see and feel changes in my life. Still when around my wife I struggled to keep the overwhelming negative reactions from taking me over. Hopefully now, since I received a reply email over a week ago stating I have not been using the SEW technique, I have learned my lesson. I have noticed I am calmer since I’ve started using the SEW technique again on all my thoughts, feelings and anything else that comes into or I feel arising in my mind.”
Larrie
Vicksburg, MS
“I wrote once at the beginning of the course and now I’m writing again, 5 months+ after beginning the course. I have seen benefits form this course, I’m doing my best to implement the SEW method, to change my way of thinking, and to approach each situation as calmly and supportively as I can. Your course confirmed to me what I knew and felt spiritually to be the truth, and has helped me deal with almost any situation in a more deeply understanding and loving manner.”
Annmarie
Staten Island, NY

“Hi,
I am writing to share some feedback. I am now paying attention the milestones as outlined in the course and I am aware that I have a long way to go. At this time I am really trying to use the SEW on my thoughts which I wasn’t doing previously. Somehow I missed that step my first time through the course and I was only focusing on stopping my outer emotions/ words. In the last week as a couple we have gotten 3 separate compliments on our marriage.
The first was a convenience store employee who asked us how long we’d been together and then stated that we have a very positive energy together. The second was a coworker of both of us who wished us “Happy Valentine’s Day to the most in love couple I know” The third was a friend who joked that they were envious of our relationship and how happy we are together. All of this in the past week. I feel motivated. It’s hard to believe that just 1 year ago the word divorce came up in our conversations. (Of course nobody else knows that. We have kept everything between us)
Thank you to the marriage foundation for being there for us/ for me. “

“Thank you. I’m committed to make the complete change for myself and my marriage. I believe in this training program and at some later think I want to join the counselors. I have to say this by far one of the hardest things I’ve had to go through but I’m growing. I’ll be married 25 years in July so I have a lot to undo but I’m doing it, something I would have never thought I could do. I appreciate all the help for all the counselors and especially Paul. I wish that some of the counselors would share their success stories about how their marriages changed.”

“Dear Counsellor,
Thank you to Paul and the entire TMF family! I made it to the end of the course and I don’t just feel accomplished yet but I feel empowered. I have had a couple of slips ups when my emotions whipped me but I unburdened to a counselor and kept it away from my husband and importantly I didn’t share it with anyone. I am happy I did this course bc I recognized so many ways that I held back love from my husband and as I correct those – I am seeing subtle changes in him. I will continue to listen the videos in the car on my to work etc. I will continue to work on watching my mind and guarding my thoughts. I might still need to write to you, if I get in an emotional ‘battle’ but I hope not much. Continue to help and pray for marriages the world over. May God continue to bless you richly.”

Chakori
Louisville, KY
“Thank you for your wisdom. I am on the crossroads in my life with a husband who has put me through a roller coaster for almost 18 years. He can be the sweetest and most loving one day and very demanding and critical the next day. I’m suffering from depression and anxiety and often I have to hide it from him to avoid gaslighting. He refuses any kind of help or counseling and extremely confident. I didn’t want to leave yet but I’m at the end of my rope and out of options after trying all I could to improve this marriage. I feel like I’m stuck forever.”
Bozena

“Tomorrow I am going to the farm to spend the weekend. I am not going to walk on eggshells — I am going to smile, be happy and funny, and engage her with what she wants. Totally starting to look through the windshield – not the rearview mirror.”
Howell

“I just have to tell you – in parts it’s as if Paul has been watching me over the years. He’s talking to a camera, but he’s really talking to me, and addressing me so specifically. It’s very heady stuff…really. Amazing. Life changing.”
Jan

“Thank you for everything. He is calmer and although it has taken longer than I thought it is definitely changing our marriage.”

“Hello! I am interested in becoming a marriage, wife coach. Western Psychology almost ruined my marriage. I want to help equip women with the Marriage Foundation skills to have a beautiful marriage.”
Estella Esther
Windsor Mill, MD
“Good morning Dear Counselor, I hope you are having a great day! I had another ah ha moment as I see now how even I have the problem with anger due to the drive to survive. Before I just thought it was normal. Now I see it differently. In other areas of my life I find it easier to turn the negative into a positive using the SEW technique.”
Natasha
City Of Commerce, CA
“Dear Counselor, I greet you well! I completed the course last week and thinking of where I was 3 months ago to now, I am feeling and dealing with issues now is 100% times better. Since I watched the anatomy of a fight videos and applied the SEW technique I only had one slip up and after I saw the consequences, I worked even harder not to have a repeat. My husband is now quite nice and is home much more. I have observed that he spends less time on his phone. He is even busy making and organizing repairs to our home.”
Pattie
Saint Louis, MO
“I am very grateful to have discovered TMF. It has already been of great help to me. I now have hope that our marriage can not only be sustained, but it can flourish.”
Gareth
New Haven, CT
“My wife and I are on less shaky ground. I SEWed up my speech (more than once) and you know what? I was happier and much less angry. I found myself not saying negative things. I found she was open to me not being negative. BOY, IS PAUL EVER RIGHT ABOUT HOW WE AS MEN TEACH OUR WOMEN TO BE NEGATIVE AND AGGRESSIVE. UGH. But! Now there is hope and God will bring us all closer to him. Cheers”
Christopher Manley
Florence, AL
“I hadn’t mentioned this before, but I’m a Messianic Jew, and find Paul’s style and substance to be both fulfilling and sufficient. By fulfilling I mean it aligns with the principles of faith that I believe in. By sufficient I mean he provides us with a clear understanding of the mind — I don’t need to have someone tell me why he loves his dog, just that he does. By the same token, I don’t need to read a popular psychology book on marriage or on the mind: what Paul says is based in love — is there anything more important or fundamental?”
Lysette Gwendoline
Stamford, CT
“Love your videos always excellent information, thank you.”

It reminded me of something J— O— has said: “Don’t pray for victory, and then call in defeat” He was referring to those who pray for some turnaround event, but continue to wallow in the depths of gossip, bad thoughts, and victimhood. Say what you want about Pastor J—, he’s got some wise and Godly observations. JUST LIKE PAUL!”

I just want you to know that these efforts you are making are doing a lot of good in some of us random strangers’ lives, and not falling on deaf ears. I’m afraid we wouldn’t be getting these messages from anywhere else if you weren’t doing this, and my life and all of the lives I touch, would be so much unhappier if I didn’t find your messages, and if I didn’t get constant reminders about them. I’m sorry I’m such a slow learner and you have to work so hard to keep people like me moving in a happy direction, but I do want you to know how much I appreciate it!!!

OUR BOOKS
LESSONS FOR A HAPPY MARRIAGE
Paul’s first book is simple and effective. Although it is a wonderful and accurate overlay for marriage we recommend one of the courses when your marriage is on a steep slide toward separation and divorce.
BREAKING THE CYCLE
Again and again we hear from clients, marriage counselors, and clergy that the principles taught by The Marriage Foundation are revolutionary because they unravel the so-called “mysteries of marriage” and reduce everything to practical do’s and don’ts.
BTC is similar but deeper than Lessons for a Happy Marriage and we still recommend one of the courses when your marriage is on a steep slide toward separation and divorce.
“Thank you, for your wisdom and for creating the course! I’m learning so much about myself—which is a beautiful thing.”
