Helping Midlife Couples Learn to Love with Confidence
Love and connection are at the heart of every human experience – and our CouplesEsteem team, that truth has guided a lifetime of leadership, mentoring, and personal transformation.
Julie Silard Kantor
CEO of Twomentor® Mentor Coach | Trainer I Relationship Builder
As the CEO of Twomentor®, Julie has spent over two decades helping people build meaningful relationships — not only in their personal lives, but also in their careers and communities. She has trained, coached, and inspired thousands across Fortune 500 companies, universities, and associations, helping individuals discover the power of mentoring, esteem, and authentic connection.
But CouplesEsteem™ was born from something deeper — a personal realization that the same principles that strengthen professional relationships can also transform love in midlife.
“After years of focusing on self-improvement, I realized something was missing — we talk endlessly about self-esteem, but what about the esteem of the couple?”
The Inspiration
Behind CouplesEsteem™
Like many long-term partners, Julie and her husband, Marc, experienced their share of challenges and renewal in their 25-year marriage. Those seasons of reflection revealed a universal truth:
even the most loving couples can lose touch with appreciation, confidence, and connection — not because love fades, but because life gets busy.
This inspired Julie to create the CouplesEsteem™ 6-Week Course — a coaching-based, experiential journey designed for couples aged 40+ who want to rekindle connection, mutual respect, and joy in their relationships.
The program combines esteem-based communication practices, daily micro-exercises, and guided coaching sessions to help partners reconnect with each other — and with themselves.
A Mission Rooted in Connection & Confidence
The mission through CouplesEsteem™ is simple yet profound: to help couples transform midlife love into their most rewarding chapter yet.
With her signature blend of mentorship expertise, relational insight, and heartfelt authenticity, she empowers couples to:
The Heart of the Work
A Coaching-Based, Not Clinical, Approach
CouplesEsteem™ is not therapy. It’s an experiential coaching program rooted in personal growth, reflection, and actionable tools. Our team believes that change happens not only through insight but through practice – small, consistent actions that build confidence, trust, and connection day by day.
Every element of the course – from private sessions to daily micro-exercises – is designed to help couples take real steps toward emotional alignment and relational renewal.
