Mend The Marriage vs The Devotion System: Couples Joint Program or Solo Video Course?

Mend The Marriage ($26, couples joint program) and The Devotion System ($43, solo video course) solve completely different problems: Mend The Marriage requires both partners to work through structured exercises together; The Devotion System teaches attraction and communication skills one woman applies alone, no partner buy-in needed.

Our pick

Mend The Marriage 8.7/10

Worth $26 if both partners will do the worksheets and want therapy-based communication tools. Skip it if your spouse refuses to take part in the work.

Both programs are built for women who want a stronger relationship. The difference is what each one actually fixes and who does the work. Mend The Marriage is a joint couples program — 150 pages of communication tools, audio, and worksheets that only function when both partners sit down and do the exercises together. The Devotion System is a solo video course — a woman works through six modules and a fill-in workbook on her own, applying attraction and communication skills without any partner participation or awareness.

Mend The Marriage: Best for couples who are both committed to joint work

Use this if:

  • Both you and your partner are already willing to sit down and work through structured exercises together
  • Your core problem is communication breakdown, recurring arguments, and emotional disconnection in marriage
  • You want therapy-grounded tools — communication techniques from Gottman, EFT, and Hendrix organized into a 30-day plan
  • You want a detailed reference: 150 pages plus audio, video, and printable worksheets in one package
  • You want the lowest-cost structured joint couples program at $26

The method: A 30-day communication and conflict-repair roadmap drawn from Gottman, EFT, and Hendrix frameworks. Week one is self-assessment: naming the disconnection, spotting conflict patterns, and identifying the “four horsemen” (criticism, contempt, defensiveness, stonewalling). Week two introduces communication tools through worksheets — active listening drills, “I” statements, and softened-startup scripts you practice together. Week three focuses on revisiting old conflicts without blame, using a structured repair sequence. Week four is rebuilding trust and creating a shared vision. The audio lets couples absorb the material together without a screen; the short video series reinforces the PDF’s key points in a second format.

Strength: Content volume and format variety are the standout advantages. You get 150 pages, MP3 audio, 5–7 short videos, and printable worksheets — significantly more material than most programs at this price point. The worksheets are the most practical piece: communication drills, conflict-repair templates, and a weekly check-in sheet grounded in real couples-therapy tools. At $26, it is the lowest-cost structured joint program in this comparison.

Weakness: The program stalls immediately if only one partner is willing. Every exercise is designed for two people in the same room — there is nothing in the guide for a partner working alone. The optional $37/month membership appears in the checkout flow; decline it and your cost stays at $26 flat. Gravity 3.51 is lower than The Devotion System’s 5.50, reflecting a smaller active buyer pool in any given period.

Cost reality: $26 one-time. Optional membership ($37/month) is offered at checkout — decline it and you pay $26 flat, no recurring. Refund: 60 days, ClickBank-honored.

The Devotion System: Best for women who want to learn attraction skills solo

Use this if:

  • You want to work on attraction and communication skills on your own, without any partner participation or awareness
  • You learn better through structured video lessons than by reading a 150-page PDF
  • Your gap is attraction fundamentals, emotional connection, and communication language — not a specific conflict cycle to resolve together
  • Your partner will not participate in a joint program, or you are not yet in a committed relationship
  • You want a course built around a fill-in workbook that forces you to practice the ideas, not just watch them

The method: Six video modules (~3 hours total) presented by Amy North, covering male psychology, building attraction, communication, handling conflict, keeping the spark, and a final “devotion blueprint.” The companion PDF workbook (~40 pages) asks you to reflect on your patterns and adapt the techniques to your own situation — writing it down turns passive watching into active practice. A quick-start checklist gives you the top techniques you can try immediately. Two bonus ebooks cover getting an ex back and deepening commitment.

Strength: The video format is the defining advantage for women who absorb ideas better by watching than by reading a dense PDF. Amy North presents directly to camera in a warm, approachable style that lowers resistance to self-help material. The workbook translates video lessons into practical exercises you complete on your own schedule. At $43 one-time, the core course is complete without any additional purchase, and the full program can be finished in a weekend. No partner participation required at any stage. Gravity 5.50 (1.57x higher than Mend The Marriage’s 3.51) reflects a broader active buyer base.

Weakness: The “obsession” framing in the marketing is louder than the actual content — the lessons are real relationship psychology, not a magic technique. The members’ area starts with a free trial and then rebills monthly (often $29–$39); you must cancel during the trial to avoid charges. The two bonus ebooks are short and repackage ideas already in the main course.

Cost reality: $43 one-time for the core course. A members’ area free trial begins at checkout and rebills monthly unless you cancel. Cancel during the trial and you pay only the $43. Refund: 60 days, ClickBank-honored on the initial purchase.

Which one should you choose?

Pick Mend The Marriage if:

  • Both partners are already willing to work through exercises together — that is the non-negotiable for this program
  • Your specific problem is communication breakdown and conflict cycles in marriage, not attraction fundamentals or connection language
  • You want the most comprehensive joint toolkit at the lowest price ($26, 150 pages + audio + video + worksheets)
  • You want therapy-grounded techniques organized into a 30-day plan with printable exercises

Pick The Devotion System if:

  • You want to work on attraction and communication skills solo, without any partner involvement
  • You learn better through video lessons than reading a long PDF
  • Your gap is attraction fundamentals, emotional connection, and communication language — not a joint repair program
  • Your partner will not participate in a structured program, or you are not yet in a committed relationship
  • You are willing to watch the members’ area trial closely and cancel before billing starts

Real talk

These programs are not interchangeable — they solve different problems and operate on opposite assumptions about who does the work.

Mend The Marriage is a couples repair program. Both partners work through it together: structured exercises, audio, and worksheets that only function when two people are sitting down and applying them. The Devotion System is a solo attraction and communication course. One woman works through it alone — her partner does not participate and may not know she is using it.

The buyer who compares these two is usually asking one of two questions: (1) “Should we work on this together or should I handle this on my own?” or (2) “My partner will not do a joint program — what is the solo alternative?” For the first question, the answer depends entirely on partner willingness. If both partners are genuinely committed, Mend The Marriage at $26 is the structured joint framework — therapy-grounded and comprehensive. If partner participation is not on the table, The Devotion System at $43 is the solo course built for exactly that situation. For the second question, The Devotion System is the clearer fit — it starts working the day you buy, with no partner involvement required.

Natural sequence for some buyers: start with The Devotion System ($43) as the solo framework for attraction and communication, applicable immediately at any relationship stage. When your partner becomes willing to sit down together, add Mend The Marriage ($26) as the joint repair program — $69 combined, no recurring on either if you decline both optional add-ons at checkout.

Both programs carry 60-day ClickBank refunds. Neither replaces couples therapy for serious situations.

Safety note: If you have ever felt unsafe, controlled, or frightened in your relationship, please contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 before choosing either program.
