This Getting the Love You Want workshop invites interracial couples to experience Imago Dialogue, a revolutionary communication process that enables them to see each other–beyond their fears, cultural conditioning and projections. Dialogue provides a safe context for each person to see, hear, and understand their partner’s perspective and gain deeper insight into him or herself. Dialogue connects partners in an interracial relationship across racial differences that commonly create deep divides and polarization.
