The LifePlan® for Couples

A strategy for your marriage

The Paterson LifePlan for Couples is a guided, reflective process that helps couples discover and align both their individual and shared life purposes. Rooted in story, clarity, and intentional planning, it empowers couples to deepen their connection, define their direction, and move forward with unity.

Why it matters

Most couples don’t struggle because of a lack of love, a but because of lack of clarity. The LifePlan for Couples uncovers each partner’s unique wiring, passion, and life experiences, then weaves them into a shared purpose that energizes every part of their lives together—faith, family, work, and legacy.

Practical, forward-focused steps to live out their purpose in daily life and long-term goals.

FAQ

  • The unique approach of the Paterson LifePlan process is the attention we devote to getting perspective. All too often, the temptation is to move straight to planning. In the Paterson process, which has been around for 40+ years, we spend up to 70% of our time getting clear perspective across every area of your life – your backstory, your current reality, your talents, your heart, and your thinking; and across every domain of your life – personal, family, vocation, and community.  Only when you have clear perspective do we move to planning.  We don’t just guide others; all of our Paterson LifePlan Guides have themselves gone through the process and are living out their own LifePlan; we only guide others on a journey that we ourselves are on.

  • The LifePlan experience is an investment of time, effort, and resources, and is crafted to pay dividends throughout the rest of your life.

  • The LifePlan Process created a “point back” document that was hugely valuable in advancing our company mission, vision values, and roles. I strongly recommend this investment for any company looking for, or working to ensure alignment at the top level.
