Welcome from Carol

Carol Missel

Welcome!

I’m so glad you are here. I founded Modern Relationshxps so that people from all walks of life would have a place to find support and inspiration to build healthy, meaningful, and fulfilling relationships with family, friends, romantic partners, co-workers, society, and even themselves.

I’ve had the privilege of helping many individuals, couples, and families find greater freedom and peace in their lives and relationships. I’d be honored to support you as well.

Why the “X” Instead of An “I” ?

 

I’m so glad you asked! There are many reasons I chose to use an “X” in our name. Click the button below to read all about it in our blog.

 
 

If you don’t have time to read the blog, here’s the short-hand version to your question:

Reason #1: www.ModernRelationships.com was taken.

Reason #2. X represents gender neutrality, which upholds our values of inclusivity.

Reason #3: It inspired our logo.

Reason #4: It provided direction for our byline, “At the Crossroads of Love & Living in the Modern World.”

Reason #5: Eliminating the “I” is symbolic for recognizing that no one truly lives isolated and outside relationships. The “X” represents two I’s crossing each other - a relationship.

Admittedly, not everyone likes the “X.” Some look at me funny when I tell them my business is “Modern Relationships with an X for the I,” but I figure that’s okay. It makes them think, and they often ask me the same question you asked, “Why the X instead of an I?” In that moment, the door opens for me to cast the vision and invite them to join us on this journey of meeting “At the Crossroads of Love & Living in the Modern World.”
