Is It Time for a Bootcamp??
150 150 Lee H. Baucom, Ph.D.

I have some friends who have been in different bootcamps this past year.  Most are fitness-oriented… getting back into shape, improving your running, improving your tennis, things like that. Bootcamps are great ways to get up-to-speed as quickly as possible, so you perform better.

In the military, people go through bootcamp to get ready to be a soldier.  It is intense and challenging, but designed to get someone ready to face a challenge elsewhere.

Is it time for a bootcamp?  How about a Husband Bootcamp?Bootcamps are a great way to get up-to-speed for what comes next.

Which is why I created the Husband Bootcamp.

I remember sitting in my office with a couple trying to get back on-track.  They were stumbling and struggling.  Then, she turned toward him and said, “You are a good man.  But you are a bad husband.” It was like a hammer at hit him in the face.  He was embarrassed and upset.  At first, he was angry.  But then, he caught himself, turned to me, and said, “I am doing the best I can… and I am failing.  What can I do?”

That started an impromptu bootcamp.  We called it the Husband Bootcamp.  Along with a few others, this was transformational for their marriage.

Recently, I decided it was time to bring that to a bigger audience.  We have been working hard to put the finishing touches on things.  But in the meantime, I wanted to give you a little insight on what it is about, who can benefit, and how to jump in (or gift it to your spouse).

Lessons From Over 1/4 Century Married — Anniversary Message
150 150 Lee H. Baucom, Ph.D.

Lessons from my marriage.  27 years and counting.My wife and I quietly celebrated 27 years of marriage together last week.

In some ways, it seems like that day was just a short while ago.  In other ways, it seems like we have been married forever (and I mean that in a good way).

We stood, side-by-side, in the heat of a summer day, promising to love and cherish each other.  I think we have done a pretty darn good job.

I will never do it perfectly.  But I keep working on perfecting it.

It occurred to me that I have learned some lessons along the way.  I wanted to share those lessons with you.  Partly, I share to remind myself of our journey.  And partly, I share in the hopes it is helpful.

Let me know what you think!
