The interview

What was the primary challenge you were facing in your dating life?

I would say that I wasn't really choosing the right partners for a period of time in my life. In some of the dating I was doing, I needed to understand kind of what the man was telling me and how to explain things to a man that I wanted, and Ken is an expert at translating.

Why did you choose to work with Ken Blackman specifically?

I really liked the way he wrote a lot of his articles and explained just relationship dynamics. At first I hesitated because he seemed to specialize in working with long-term couples, and that's not the situation I was in. I was in a situation where I was newly dating someone and wanted to know if this was the right match.

How did Ken help you evaluate your relationship at the time?

On the surface, this partner looked like a great potential match, and Ken was able to ask both of us separately and together questions to dig deeper. It actually only took me about three months to find out this was not my match.

What did you discover about your own relationship patterns through this work?

I uncovered that that partner wasn't the right partner for me at all, which is very helpful information. I wasted a lot less time than usual. I finally realized that my pattern was holding on to, like, one positive aspect of a person.

What is the lasting impact of Ken's coaching on your life?

Ken's words of wisdom have sat with me for quite some time. Trying to basically fit a square peg into a round hole does not work. Thanks to the work that I did with Ken, that kind of sped up the process to open me to someone who really was the right match for me.

Who would you recommend work with Ken?

If you're thinking about working with Ken, I think whether you want your relationship to be deeper or you wanna decide if you want to stay in a relationship or not, either way, he is the perfect person to work with. He can see a situation clearly that you may not be able to see when you're in it yourself.

Frequently asked

Does Ken Blackman only work with long-term couples?

Gretchen Prins initially hesitated because Ken seemed to specialize in long-term couples, but she found his methods highly effective for her situation as someone newly dating. He was able to help her navigate the early stages of a match just as effectively as a long-term partnership.
