You love each other.
Now go deeper.
Connected Conversations is an ongoing membership community for couples who are done coasting — and ready to build something extraordinary together. Built entirely around the F.E.R.N.S. Method.
For the Couple Who Wants More Than "Fine."
You are not in crisis. You are not on the brink. You love each other — and you know something is missing. The arguments have gotten quieter, but so has the connection. You feel more like roommates than partners. You want more intimacy, more understanding, more us — and you are willing to show up consistently to get it.
"You don't have to be falling apart to benefit from this work. Sometimes the most important time to invest in your relationship is when things are okay — before they're not."
Connected Conversations is also the ideal next step for couples who have completed private sessions with Brian and want to continue the work in a structured, supported community.
Three Ways We Show Up For You.
Tuesday Live Sessions
Live group sessions that go deeper into the F.E.R.N.S. framework. Each session is structured around a specific relational theme — building your understanding week over week in real time with other couples on the same path.
- Live facilitated learning — not recorded lectures
- Theme-based sessions tied to the F.E.R.N.S. curriculum
- Community discussion with other member couples
- Replays available for members who can't attend live
Open Chair
Once a month, Brian opens the room. Bring your real questions — the ones you've been sitting with between sessions, the patterns you can't quite name, the moments that didn't go the way you hoped. This is direct, unfiltered access in a live group setting.
- Live Q&A directly with Brian T. Jones, LMFT
- Bring personal questions from your own relationship
- Brian responds with clinical depth in real time
- Anonymous question submission available
Between-Session Support
Growth doesn't wait for the next session. As a Connected Conversations member, you have access to direct text and email support between live sessions — so when something comes up, you're not on your own until Tuesday.
- Direct text access for quick questions and check-ins
- One-off emails for longer reflections or follow-ups
- Responses within one business day
- Ideal for processing moments that happen between sessions
How It Works
Attend Your First Session Free
Show up to your first Tuesday session at no charge. No credit card, no commitment — just come and see what it feels like to be in the room.
Join the Membership
If it feels right, join at $99/month. You get immediate access to all three pillars — Tuesday sessions, Open Chair, and between-session support.
Show Up Consistently
The work compounds. The couples who get the most out of Connected Conversations are the ones who show up regularly and bring their real questions.
Go Deeper When Ready
At any point you can add private sessions with Brian or Emily. Connected Conversations members get priority scheduling for private sessions.
Led by Brian T. Jones — Every Step of the Way.
Connected Conversations is built on a rich foundation of pre-recorded video content covering every component of the F.E.R.N.S. framework — content you can return to, revisit, and work through at your own pace. But that's just the beginning.
"The videos give you the framework. The live sessions are where you actually apply it to your relationship — in real time, with real questions, with me in the room."
Every Tuesday session is live and facilitated by Brian. Every Open Chair is Brian responding to your actual questions in real time. The pre-recorded content gives you the foundation — the live community is where the real transformation happens. You get both.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do both partners need to attend?
We encourage both partners to attend Tuesday sessions and Open Chair together — the shared experience is powerful. That said, it's not required. Some partners attend individually and bring what they learn back to their relationship. Whatever works for your situation is welcome.
What if we can't make a live session?
Session replays are available to all members. We strongly encourage attending live whenever possible — the real-time discussion and community dynamic is where most of the value lives.
Is this a substitute for private therapy?
No — and it's not designed to be. Connected Conversations is a structured learning and support community. Couples in active crisis or requiring clinical intervention should begin with private sessions.
How is this different from a couples course?
A course is passive. Connected Conversations is live, ongoing, and responsive to your actual relationship. Brian is in the room every session — not behind a pre-recorded video. You bring your real questions and get real answers.
Can we add private sessions?
Absolutely — and we encourage it. Members get priority scheduling for private sessions with Brian or Emily at $150 per session. Many couples use Connected Conversations alongside occasional private check-ins.
What is the F.E.R.N.S. Method?
The F.E.R.N.S. Method is a proprietary clinical framework developed by Brian T. Jones that identifies the Feelings, Expectations, Reactivity, and Sensitivities that block couples from accessing their actual Needs. Every session in Connected Conversations is built around this framework.
Your First Session Is Free.
No commitment required for your first Tuesday session. Show up, experience the room, and see if Connected Conversations is the right fit for where you are in your relationship.
