Zwazzi and Naomi are a Black and Jewish couple who have been together for over 13 years and married for almost 11 years. They have done relationship workshops and seminars throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and nationally for over eleven years with groups of people from widely diverse backgrounds. They operate from the premise that everyone already has all the resources they will ever need. Participants learn to access and unleash those resources by practice of communication and negotiation skills in a fun, non-therapeutic setting.

Collectively, Zwazzi and Naomi have worked in social services for over 35 years with people from all walks of life. They are skilled at helping people move from 'wanting' to 'having', whether single or in relationship. They have also found that while participants may first come to Courage To Love™ workshops as a result of concerns about romantic relationships, they often achieve great results using their new skills in relationships with friends, family, co-workers and themselves.
