About Janelle Dawsey
Janelle Dawsey is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, author, certified matchmaker, and the creator of the Relationship Life Cycle™ Framework. After years of clinical practice — sitting with couples, individuals, and families navigating some of the most complex moments of their relational lives — she recognized a pattern that kept appearing: relationships weren't failing because people were bad at relationships. They were failing because no one had ever given them a developmental map.
That recognition became the Relationship Life Cycle™.
Janelle speaks from a place of clinical depth and genuine warmth. Her sessions don't feel like lectures. They feel like someone finally putting language to something audiences already knew was true — but had never heard said out loud.
Keynotes & Sessions
Every Relationship Has a Season
A keynote introduction to the Relationship Life Cycle™ Framework — helping audiences understand that every relationship has phases, and every phase has a purpose. Participants leave with a developmental map for their relationships and language for where they are in the journey.
When Good Advice Stops Working
An exploration of developmental mismatch — why applying the right advice at the wrong stage creates more confusion than clarity. Designed for professionals who work with relationships in any capacity.
What Your Relationship Actually Needs Right Now
A practical session that helps participants identify where their relationship is in its development and what it needs to move forward — drawing directly from the six phases and six areas of the Relationship Life Cycle™.
