Love VS Fear, In Dating and Relationships
A Retreat with Jack Pransky, Ph.D. and Lori Carpenos, LMFT
Jack and Lori are very excited to announce this three-day retreat in the Dominican Republic, where we will explore dating and relationships from the perspective of Love vs. Fear and the inside-out perspective of The Three Principles.
When? March 17, 18, and 19, 2023. While the seminar is three days, we highly encourage participants to spend a full week at the resort, so that they can have a day or two before the retreat to settle in and a day or two afterward in case they want to spend time with someone they met there. You are also welcome to pick your own dates around the time of the seminar.
Where? Dominican Republic. At an all-inclusive resort on the Caribbean in Puerto Plata.
For Whom? Any responsible singles, couples, or individuals within couples
The three days will be offered in a retreat format; meaning, we will hold morning and evening seminars/discussions, with afternoons free to relax, swim or do whatever.
Please see the scheduling information at the bottom of the page.*
What will the seminar cover, within the retreat?
The seminar will be conducted largely in a discussion format coupled with work in shifting pairs. Some of the topics to be explored are as follows:
FEAR and How To Overcome It:
How fear inhibits both dating and relationships.
How hidden fears that we act on inadvertently make it appear we are getting what we want but often get us what we don’t want
How to overcome fear:
Most people don't realize how much they are motivated by fear because most fear is hidden and therefore goes unnoticed, but it is affecting connections and relationships, and fear rules far more than we would like to think.
Where does this fear come from and why do we have it?
What are the fears that keep us caught and stuck? Such as-
fear of being taken advantage of
fear of not finding the right person
fear of not being good enough
fear of losing freedom
fear of intimacy…and so many more
LOVE and How It Can Guide Us:
What’s Love got to do with it, even when we are not in love?
Love-based connections without fear
Spiritual facts about Love
Creating deeper connections/Soul connection
Emotional intimacy, openness, and vulnerability; what it does for connection and within a relationship
Making love vs. having sex
Deep Listening (and practice)

Travel: It is recommended to fly into Puerto Plata (POP) airport, as it is a closer shuttle ride to the resort.
Shuttle Information: shuttle cost is included through your reservation with Mike. Shuttle from POP is less than a 20-25 minute ride depending on the traffic
Or you can fly into Santiago De Los Caballeros (STI) airport. This is a much longer ride (1.5-2 hours) and much bumpier.
Note: It is not advisable to leave the resort unless taking an official excursion from the resort.
Booking Terms & Conditions
Lori will send these to you in response to your reservation. If you want to see them beforehand, you may also email her: lori@3principlestherapy.com
We (Lori and Jack) found a great airfare on JetBlue by booking it online - Tuesday after 3:00 fares were $100 less than the day before. JetBlue offers 3 categories - we went with the mid-category "Blue" so that we can make changes up until the day of travel at no extra cost. We are flying in on Wednesday the 15th and out on Wednesday the 22nd.
We’d love to see you there!
