Dear Lovebirds,
We want to make you three promises right now:
- Conscious navigation of your relationship is attainable.
- Challenging yourself is rewarding.
- Even great relationships can get better.
We are Deborah and Christian Ostmo, and we’re a couple nowhere near our full potential.
Our relationship started with a holiday romance, living something like a fairytale, without any direction. Our early relationship was beautiful, but also filled with plenty of “what if’s” and “what next?”
We needed better methods of planning and communicating.
See The Journey was our couple blog and place of reflection, but over the last few years, it’s developed into tools for you to strengthen your relationship.
Here’s what we’ve discovered:
- Every relationship has room for improvement.
- Happiness is a mentality.
- Your quality of life is dependent on the quality of your relationships.
I’m so excited you’ve found us! Let’s continue this journey together.
Every post you read will be an honest portrayal of real life, and will address one of the four pillars we lay out in our upcoming book, #powercouple: appreciation, connection, vision, and growth.

The best love is the kind that awakens the soul; that makes us reach for more, that plants the fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. That’s what I hope to give you forever.
