The Marriage Success Cycle: Motivation, Grit, Commitment, and Character in Relationships

$79.95

Every lasting marriage follows a rhythm, a cycle that determines whether two people grow together or drift apart. That cycle isn’t built on luck or chemistry, but on four essential forces: Motivation, Grit, Commitment, and Character.

In The Marriage Success Cycle, Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT, unpacks how these four traits interact to shape every relationship’s trajectory. Couples begin with motivation, fueled by emotion and attraction. Over time, that spark requires grit and the ability to persevere when love gets hard. From there, commitment becomes the anchor that keeps partners connected through life’s storms. And ultimately, character — the consistent choice to act with integrity, empathy, and love — sustains the bond for life.

The Marriage Success Cycle: Motivation, Grit, Commitment, and Character in Relationships

A Live 90-Minute Clinical & Relational Webinar with Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT

Overview

Every lasting marriage follows a rhythm, a cycle that determines whether two people grow together or drift apart. That cycle isn’t built on luck or chemistry, but on four essential forces: Motivation, Grit, Commitment, and Character.

In The Marriage Success Cycle, Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT, unpacks how these four traits interact to shape every relationship’s trajectory. Couples begin with motivation, fueled by emotion and attraction. Over time, that spark requires grit and the ability to persevere when love gets hard. From there, commitment becomes the anchor that keeps partners connected through life’s storms. And ultimately, character — the consistent choice to act with integrity, empathy, and love — sustains the bond for life.

This 90-minute webinar blends psychology, neuroscience, and relationship research to help couples and clinicians understand what truly makes love last — and how to strengthen every phase of the success cycle.

 

What You’ll Learn

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

  •  Describe the Marriage Success Cycle and how motivation, grit, commitment, and character interconnect.
  •  Understand the neuroscience of motivation and perseverance — how brain systems for reward and regulation impact long-term love.
  •  Recognize when couples are “stuck” in early motivation stages or struggling to sustain commitment through difficulty.
  •  Apply interventions that strengthen relational grit — perseverance, emotional regulation, and shared purpose.
  •  Guide couples in redefining commitment as a daily act of love, not an abstract concept.
  •  Help partners cultivate character virtues like humility, honesty, forgiveness, and courage — the ultimate protectors of marriage.
  •  Integrate the Success Cycle framework into therapy, coaching, and marriage enrichment work.

About the Presenter

Chris Cambas, MA, LMFT, is a Certified Gottman Therapist, speaker, and co-founder of CoupleStrong and National Marriage Seminars of America. 

With more than two decades of experience helping couples rebuild and strengthen relationships, Chris brings a unique integration of neuroscience, attachment theory, and moral psychology to his teaching.

Why This Webinar Matters

Every relationship begins with excitement. But the couples who make it last don’t rely on emotion — they rely on character.

The Marriage Success Cycle helps partners and therapists alike see the bigger picture of what sustains commitment and connection over time.

This webinar explores:

  • Why motivation alone isn’t enough to sustain a relationship.
  • How grit and perseverance transform pain into growth.
  • Why commitment is more about daily choice than lifelong promise.
  • How character — empathy, integrity, and faithfulness — becomes the foundation of enduring love.

Love isn’t a feeling to chase — it’s a discipline to practice.
