About Cristie Cerniglia

Hi! I’m Cristie Cerniglia, a certified relationship coach, speaker, and passionate advocate for marriage and family restoration. I’ve been married to my husband for over 30 years, and my journey into coaching began with a deeply personal mission: to heal and rebuild what I thought was lost in my own marriage...

…After experiencing the emotional pain of my parents’ divorce during my senior year of high school, I became determined to understand what makes relationships thrive. Years later, when my own marriage began to feel disconnected, I turned to the books, seminars, and relationship “experts” I had long trusted. But none of them helped me understand what was really wrong—or how to change it.

Then I found Laura Doyle, New York Times bestselling author of The Empowered Wife. Her approach was unlike anything I had seen—simple, clear, and eye-opening. I realized something powerful: I was the problem—but I was also the solution. Once I recognized the behaviors that were pushing my husband away, I learned how to reignite connection, respect, and romance.

I completed a one-year intensive training program with Laura Doyle and became a certified relationship coach. Since then, I’ve witnessed incredible transformations—not only in my own marriage but in the lives of the women I coach. I now teach The Six Intimacy Skills™, which help lonely, frustrated wives rediscover joy, rebuild intimacy, and create the marriage they’ve always dreamed of—with or without his effort.

Speaking Experience & Media Presence

For over 24 years, I’ve been speaking at churches, women’s events, and community groups, using storytelling and humor to connect with audiences and spark meaningful change. I also hosted a local radio show called “Contagious” for three years, sharing real stories and strategies to help others build strong, fulfilling relationships.

What I Offer

  • Relationship coaching for women ready to reclaim peace and passion
  • Speaking engagements at conferences, churches, and women’s retreats
  • Workshops and group coaching sessions focused on restoring intimacy and communication

If you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or alone in your marriage, there is hope. I’m here to help you shift your mindset, regain confidence, and reconnect with your husband in a powerful and lasting way.
