Meet Deanna Bryant
It’s a beautiful thing when your kids get older and begin their journey into independence.
At the same time, it can pose challenges to your marriage.
Before kids, you stood face to face. Raising kids, you stood shoulder to shoulder.
Now they are older, and it’s just the two of you with an opportunity to change your focus once again.
But often, there is a glaring disconnect that has happened through time.
In a long-term marriage with older children, I’ve faced this stage in my own life with a longing for something different: something more.
Through intentional effort, I worked on myself and my relationship. I’ve reaped the rewards of such efforts.
You can’t do it on your own.
And that realization is where my passion for helping couples experience transformation emerged. Having been a teacher for 25 years, I love sharing information and assisting students with skill development. To help married couples, I researched, studied, and increased my skill to share my knowledge and experience.
As a result, in my company Revive Your Midlife Marriage,
I help couples cultivate new meaning and a deeper intimacy in their marriages now the kids are older.
You deserve an invested partner to create a new relationship that meets your expectations. I am ready to become that partner for you.
When I’m not coaching couples, I’m spending time with my family, including a feisty cowboy corgi, two cats, and a horse that thinks he is my shadow. My husband and I enjoy hiking in the mountains and kayaking on the rivers of our hometown in East Tennessee. We also like to indulge in excellent food and travel to extraordinary places, staying in quaint bed and breakfasts.
