The “old” relationships model is played out, tired and EXPIRED, and it needs a funeral!

Time is UP on the faulty and failed version of love relationships we’ve been taught, shown, told and sold.

It’s time for a NEW PARADIGM for attracting and sustaining JUICY Black love relationships and JUICY covenant marriage that SHAKES UP and SHAKES OFF the failed Relationship Status Quo, and heals us from the damage and “infection” of the Relationship “Love Lies.”

Join us for Debrena’s 2025 Love Academy 101, Virtual Edition
It happens only once a year
Her 5-Hour Relationships INTENSIVE:
Saturday February 22nd, 2025
9:00am to 2pm PST/Noon to 5:00pm EST

Debrena’s teachings are NOT more of the recycled relationships rhetoric we too often hear. She offers refreshingly different, inspiring, liberating, mind-blowing, and elevated teachings based upon spiritual truths.

What you learn in her Love Academy 101 will challenge the very fabric of the faulty mis-teachings we’ve been receiving for decades.

There’s a reason graduates of her teachings have gone on to be in 67+ new Black Love marriages, and a whole host of existing marriages have experienced renewal.

WHAT HAS THE “OLD” FAILED MODEL GIVEN US?

SOUND THE ALARM! We’re in the midst of a CRISIS in Black Love relationships and marriages.  With divorce rates soaring 34% since the Pandemic and frustration and resignation among both single and married sistahs  reaching all-time highs, what the H*LL is really going on?! The old model has failed us and it’s been in collapse for decades.

Did you know that the U. S. already had the HIGHEST divorce rates, and the LOWEST success rates for marriage IN THE ENTIRE WORLD (out of 196 countries)? And some of the highest frustration rates for love relationships?

Complaint, frustration, resignation, dissatisfaction, resentment, and even infidelity, have become the order of the day in too many love relationships and  marriage.

Over these past 48 months especially (during and since the Pandemic), we’ve witnessed a SURGE in relationship break-ups, and a record number of divorces and breakdowns in love relationships and marriages, ESPECIALLY among professional “Boss Chicks,” and women married 10 years or more.

What has the “Old” Model (the existing model), given us? 

On Saturday February 22, in my ONCE A YEAR Love Academy 101 VIRTUAL EVENT, I’m going to break it down and tell you during my 5-Hour Relationships Intensive.

I’ll answer this question and take you “behind the curtain” to lay out the answers (it’s NOT what you may be thinking), and introduce you to a NEW paradigm for creating and sustaining JUICY love relationships and JUICY marriages in Love Academy 101.

WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON!? First, let’s expose some FACTS.

Much of what we’ve been taught and told about how to “do” love relationships and marriage, (and YES, this includes in church), has been faulty, flawed, and has produced FAILED results.

What’s at the ROOT of this epidemic of love relationships failures?  Is it because of widespread individual failures or is there something else going on, something BIGGER at play? 

There’s also something bigger at play, like the VERY BASIS AND MODELof love relationships and marriage that we’ve been taught, show, told and sold, is flawed.  

Are you ready to EXIT OUT of the Failed Relationships Model?

As a Love Relationships Coach that has “been in the game” for nearly 15 years now, with the initial launch of my Love Academy 101 and then my nationally published book, The Love Lies, I can tell you, with absolute certainty,  that we’ve been taught and shown a FUNDAMENTALLY flawed, faulty model and approach that consistently creates more failure than success. 

And instead of on-line dating Apps and sites producing an unprecedented number of new, juicy love relationships and marriages, it’s produced a tiny fraction, compared to the millions that are on dating sites.  And it has, instead, generated new levels of frustration and even resignation for both women and men.

WHY are so many of our relationships in crisis, in breakdown, toxic, struggling, crippled, eroding, and disintegrating. Far too many of our love relationships are in BAAAAD shape??

FIRST–

We’ve not realized that what we’ve been taught, shown, told and sold, has supported and reinforced a Western-American-basedrelationships “model” that, by design, is an inherently FAILED and FAULTY model., and produces the highest relationships failure rate, globally! 

The very “DNA” of it is riddled with the LOVE LIES – a specific SET of faulty and flawed relationships mis-teachings that create and generate damaged or failed outcomes. 

The LOVE LIES (there are two different sets of Love Lies for women and for men!) make up the very “DNA” of what we’ve been taught. They’re faulty.  And operating from them CONSISTENTLY produces high frustration and widespread FAILURE for BOTH women and men, and more relationship and marriage failures than successes – and this includes Christian marriages, too.   We’ve come to believe, “This is how it is.” But I’m here to tell you, NOT SO!! NOT SO!  There’s a very different “how it is” that is available to us, and THIS is what Debrena Jackson Gandy’s Love Academy teaches.

SECOND–

We haven’t realized that the “Love Lies” we’ve been taught, shown, told and sold, actually create S.T.D’s about love relationships – Socially Transmitted Delusions about love relationships and covenant marriage.The Love Lies and the S. T. D.’s they create can  even have us start to believe that JUICY love relationships and JUICY marriages aren’t possible. FALSE!! FALSE! FALSE!!

THIRD–

The “infection” of the Love Lies, has most females operating “in their Girl” and most males, operating “In their Boy,” in their love relationships and marriages. This is instead of being “in their Woman” and males, ‘in their Man.”  

And because this NORM that the Love Lies give us, we’re not aware that we’re unhealed, out of order, and inside a “relationship Matrix” that keeps producing disastrous and painful relationships and marriages results and outcomes.

In the Love Academy 101, you’ll be EXPOSED to a NEW paradigm and NEW ways of thinking, communicating, relating and be-ing that sets you FREE from the GRIP of the Love Lies.

What You’ll Learn in the Love Academy 101 Virtual Intensive

(And a NOTE for married women – contrary to popular mis-teachings, having a JUICY covenant marriage is not about roles, compromise OR negative self-sacrifice. Scripturally, NONE of these are part of God’s DIVINE DESIGN of covenant marriage). 

You’ll also be reminded of God’s DIVINE BLUEPRINT for Covenant Marriage, set forth in Scripture.  When you understand this Blueprint (and unfortunately, it is NOT the model we tend to be taught in Church), you recognize and experience it as a model based in FREEDOM, and not bondage.  And full SELF-EXPRESSION, not “duty, obligation, roles, compromise, negative self-sacrifice, foregoing your OWN vision, self-neglect, hierarchy, or continuously deferring your heart’s desires).

What sets Love Academy apart from other love relationships courses and teachings?

You’ll begin detonating long-held TOXIC beliefs about “how relationships work and how marriage works.” 

The LOVE LIES create HUGE BLINDSPOTS in love relationships and marriage that we don’t even know are there. In Love Academy, they will move from being in your blindspot to now being SEEN for what they are.

You will be introduced to:

The female Love Lies are a specific combination of false, faulty underlying beliefs specific to women (men have their own set), about relationships and marriage, that have become part of our “relationships conditioning,” starting as early as the ages of three and four. 

The female Love Lies fuel, inform and determine how we think, communicate, react and behave in our relationships. 

Most of us UNAWARE of the extent to which these poisonous culprits are there – alive, well, kickin’ and unknowingly operating IN US and in our love relationships and marriages.  This is why RELATIONSHIPS SUCCESS eludes so many of us  (both women AND men).

A JUICY Relationship is one where

What we’ve been experiencing however, is thinking that “this is just the way it is,” But this is the RESULT of the destructive, poisonous and deeply damaging effects and outcomes of the flawed, faulty, misleading Love Lies that have been the BASIS of what we’ve been taught, shown., told and sold.

At least 67 NEW Black Love marriages have occurred among grads of Debrena’s Love Academy teachings (and these represent only those that have reported back), a whole host of renewed marriages, marriage proposals, and women now being dated that were experiencing a “relationships desert” before taking Debrena’s Course.

What Women are Saying about The Love Academy...

"On a scale of 1 to 10, I give Debrena's Love Academy a 12! I felt liberated from the shackles of the Love Lies I have UNKNOWINGLY bought into for the last 30 years of my life!"

"Debrena's Love Academy 101 is life-changing! Her Love Lies model revealed all of the beliefs about love I've struggled with my whole adult life. I am now ready to embrace love as a woman, not as a girl."

"OMG! Debrena is the TRUTH and you will never think the same way about what you see and hear when it comes to lore relationships. My fiance' has fallen even more deeply in love with me as a result of who I am after this course."

"The information is so rich and tangible. Debrena is so real when she talks about her own life lessons and being able to share it with other women so that they can be more fruitful in their relationships. I just want to rise and say "Hallelujah, Hallelujah.' I can't get enough."

"Your course gave me insight into who I am as a woman and how truly powerful and magnetic I am. I am now more consciously aware of my language, energy, and my vibrations! I recommend this course to every woman who is seeking authentic and healthy love."

"I am just salivating.
The Love Lies you exposed were so delicious and yummy -
the information you shared was food for my soul."

How do you know if you’d benefit from Love Academy 101?

Do any of the questions below ring true for you?

You may be a successful “Boss Chick” in your profession, career, business or ministry, but you’ve noticed that success in the work/business/higher ed “domains”  DOESN’T automatically mean that you’re able to usccessfully attract AND sustain a juicy love relationship or marriage.

The “domain” of love relationships is NOT aligned with the rest of your life.

Maybe it’s been the “domain” that you still can’t get to “click,” where you may feel confused and confounded, and where you realize that you don’t have things figured out.

If you’re single… do any of these ring true?

  • You may have quietly started giving up on being in a juicy Black love relationship
  • You’ve started to lose hope, or feel a little resigned,
  • The on-line dating scene hasn’t been fruitful or rewarding for you.
  • You’ve been hoping and wishing that you’d have met someone by now, and you feel that “your time is running out”
  • You might have heard more than once that you intimidate men, or that you’re “just too independent.”
  • You have negative patterns in your love relationships but don’t really know why or how to change them
  • You’ve become cynical  or pessimistic about love relationships and especially marriage
  • You’ve been “looking for” or “trying to find” The One/Mr. Right, but you keep getting Mr. Wrong
  • You have a What-I-Want-In-a-Man-List but men keep “falling short,” or you feel you have to “settle.”
  • You’ve been hurt before and now you’re distrusting of men, or overly cautious
  • You may be able to attract men but not “keep” them

If you’re married… do any of these ring true?

  • You two have been living more like roommates, and the “juice” and passion has gotten dried up
  • You’re on “auto-pilot” in your marriage
  • You’ve been feeling frustrated and irritated
  • Your husband is much more passive, checked out, and/or withdrawn than you’d like him to be
  • You have become overly focused on your kid(s)
  • You’re shouldering way too much in the relationship and/or in your parenting, or you’re DOING way too much
  • You’ve silenced your voice in your marriage
  • You have to repeat things multiple times before he seems to listen and “get” it
  • You feel disconnected, and don’t really know how to create closeness and connection
  • Your self-care has been suffering and you feel depleted
