I am a walking ambassador for Todd Creager. I have been married for 24 years.

In November of 2014, I hit bottom. I needed help. Actually, I needed help for some time; but being a man, I thought I could handle my problem. The emotional turmoil was getting worse not better. My wife had become collateral damage from my emotional volatility. I could not live with that anymore, so I decided to get help.

I found Todd through a LinkedIn contact. I explained my situation and he told me that he could help me. I connected to his confidence and his direct no-nonsense approach.

Todd helped me understand that to correct the problem I created in my marriage; I first had to understand the relationship I had with myself. Yes, Todd is a counselor; but from the first session, I felt as if I were talking to a guide who would walk with me during my transformation. Much like Virgil is to Dante when he descended into Hell.

There was work to be done and sometimes the revelation was not pretty. Every session concluded with an action item to modify my thinking or behavior. He also helped me realize that I was always moving towards my most dominant thought and that we are not aware of our limiting beliefs or self-destructive thinking. Todd helped me to see my limiting beliefs and I have been working hard to change them.

Todd also says that marriage is a 200 percent commitment. Both husband and wife need to be committed 100 percent. That being said he also helped me understand that all I can do is control my attitude and my behavior.

After 10 sessions, I felt that we had identified all the issues that were creating marital turmoil and that I have the tools to have a better relationship with myself, my wife, and my children. I now see Todd on a monthly basis as a life coach, which brings me to my next point.

As men, we don’t want to let anyone know that we don’t have all the answers, or that we don’t have our shit together. Especially other men. But that is a mistake because I don’t know what I don’t know. After going through this process, I highly recommend that any man at any age find other men to walk with through this journey of life. We are all gifted and all have something to share.

That being said my sessions with Todd are the single best gift I have given myself. I do know that all men have said:’I wish I had someone to talk to’ Give yourself a gift and call Todd.
