Happy New Year: Our Iconic 2025 Vision
Happy New Year! Join Us in Empowering Iconic Marriages for a Thriving Future
On October 1, 2022, we launched Iconic Marriages—a platform dedicated to helping new couples build successful and thriving marriages. In today's world, the institution of marriage is often questioned, even though research consistently shows its profound benefits for our communities. Few are providing the essential tools and strategies for new couples to flourish, and the result is a rise in divorces and broken families across all demographics.
This trend must change.
After collaborating with the Conscious Conservative Movement in 2022 and recognizing the need for empowering content, I founded Iconic Marriages to host nuanced conversations about marriage, blending cultural aspects into our discussions. Our vision is to equip men and women with the knowledge and resources to build lasting, iconic marriages that thrive. Our mission for the next 25 years is to help 1,000,000 new couples forge healthier and stronger relationships through our Twitter Spaces, newsletters, and e-courses.
Dear Icons,
As we step into 2025, I am filled with gratitude for the three-year journey we've shared and excitement for the future. This year marks my 40th birthday, a milestone that I wish to celebrate by giving back and strengthening the community that has been my support system.
Our Vision for Iconic Marriages
At Iconic Marriages, we are dedicated to empowering marriages and building strong families across America. Our mission is to provide resources, support, and guidance to couples and families, helping them navigate the complexities of relationships and life. Healthy marriages are the foundation of strong families, which in turn create happier, more resilient communities. Research shows that married individuals tend to experience greater happiness and better health outcomes compared to their unmarried counterparts (Wilcox & Marquardt, 2010). Strong families contribute to the emotional and social development of children, setting them up for success in life (Institute for Family Studies, 2021).
Our Platform Goals for 2025
Federal Contract Training and Bid: This essential training will enable us to expand our reach and impact, ensuring that we can provide top-notch resources and support to even more families.
Building Our Content Platform: We aim to create a comprehensive content platform filled with valuable articles, videos, and resources to help couples strengthen their relationships using Substack.com.
Medical Bills: As I continue to fight Crohn's disease, the financial burden of medical bills is significant. Your support will help ease this burden and allow me to focus on my health and mission.
Expanding Homeschooling Efforts: We want to enhance our homeschooling program to better support my own children and other families seeking quality education at home.
Podcasting Equipment and Finances: Upgrading our podcasting equipment will allow us to produce high-quality episodes that reach and inspire more listeners.
Developing Video Content: Creating engaging video content is crucial for reaching a wider audience and providing valuable visual resources.
Hiring Writing Staff: Adding new talent to our platform who want to write, produce and, work with our marriage organization.
Celebrating New Milestones
In 2025, we will be releasing two new books:
"Dating with a Purpose" (Coming in February): This book offers practical advice and insights for singles seeking meaningful relationships.
"Mrs. Pinky Cook" (coming in July): This cookbook shares my culinary journey, from growing up cooking with my mother and grandmother, to feeding my family of 8 and my fellow soldiers in the U.S. Army. It also addresses the challenges of cooking with Crohn's disease, prediabetes, and allergies.
Why We Need Your Help
We cannot achieve these goals without you. Your support is paramount to our success. With your help, we aim to raise $50,000 to fund these initiatives. Your contributions will directly impact the lives of families and couples, helping them build strong, healthy relationships.

To reach our target of $50,000, we need to raise approximately $4,167 per month over 12 months.
The Iconic Fundraising Campaign aims to offset these costs.
Your donation of $10 or more will directly support our year-long goal. As a token of appreciation, donors will receive several rewards, including access to our newest e-books and our first e-course.

Thriving families lead to thriving communities, and thriving communities contribute to a thriving nation.
