Marshall Burtcher – Your Guide In Getting Unstuck, Creating Real Results, And Falling In Love With Your Life
Introducing
THE FOUNDATION TRAININGS
Experience results that matter to you without all the frustration, doubt, or anxiety of figuring it out yourself or running through endless loops in therapy
Experience the freedom and well-being you desire without wasting more of your time, energy, or money
Experience real power, real peace, real safety in your daily life – all you have to do is show up
What would it mean for you to feel more peace and confidence every day without having to change yourself or fix yourself?
What would it mean for you if you could reduce your pain, massively increase your peace, and enjoy real confidence in yourself?
What would it mean to you if you had more energy, capacity, and excitement for your desires?
Implement THE TRAININGS That Took Me FROM DROWNING IN HOPELESSNESS TO FEELING SAFER, EMPOWERED, AND WORTHWHILE
In February of 2012, I was weathering a divorce, bankruptcy, loss of close friendships, and the breakdown of my life. This was my pivot point.
By November of 2014, friendships were growing, my confidence expanding, my shame dropping, and I was building my business and life.
New romantic experiences, deeper friendships, more peace from trauma (abandonment and neglect, specifically), emerged and I found myself thriving.
This continues to grow today, as I am in a committed romantic relationship, share strong connections with my children, have thriving friendships, and enjoy achieving my desires.
What Would Feeling More At Peace, More Trusting Of Yourself, And Feeling Like You Matter Mean To You?
What IS FOUNDATION?
Foundation is a complete step-by-step healing system that gently guides you through unlocking your natural power, self-worth, and healing abilities. It utilizes proven emotional and psychological tools and practices that free your body from it’s pain, liberate your mind from it’s doubt, and restores you to your natural state of self-trust, confidence, and freedom.
Body-Focused Practices
The Foundation Trainings use body-focused practices to help your mind and body cooperate in creating real healing that lasts, real worth that anchors you, real safety that soothes you, and real connections that nourish and fulfill you.
You don’t need to be codependent to get your needs met after you’ve learned these practices.
Tools And Practices That Grow With You
Once you’re tapped into your natural ability to heal and to speak up for yourself (without fear, shame, or anxiety hijacking you), your healing takes on a gentle organic path that expands you into more peace, more love, and more freedom.
This is how you truly learn to live without codependency. Instead, you thrive through trusting yourself, loving yourself, and being yourself.
WHAT THE FOUNDATION IS NOT
This Foundation Trainings Are Not...
A Short-Term Fix
Short-term fixes lead you into pits of despair and frustration. These set you up for more loss, discouragement, or even hopelessness.
Not A “Fix Myself” System
My work sees you as naturally whole, complete, and not in need of alteration to grow or succeed. You do not need fixing. You need to be known and warmly loved.
A Coping System
Codependency isn’t viewed as a disease or addiction in my work. It is viewed as a response to persistently unsafe, chaotic relationship cycles in your life that develop because you don’t have the knowledge, skills, or experience to choose otherwise. You stop using codependency to survive when you know how to get your needs met through your own advocacy.
Hi, I'm Marshall Burtcher
... And I was severely codependent.
This started with having accurate knowledge about what was actually happening versus what others claimed was happening.
What most people are taught when it comes to codependency:
- It is a disease you have to cope with
- It is an addiction you have to cope with
- It is part of who you are (like an identity)
- It is permanent
Does this sound familiar?
If so, you’re not alone. I believed this was the truth for DECADES.
Then, out of desperation, and a bit of rebellion, I dared to question those claims.
I asked…
“What if codependency was my strategy for surviving the chaos of abuse and neglect?
This question opened me up to a new clarity about my codependency.
From clarity came hope.
From that hope came real change.
Here's Why You've Been Stuck In Loops Of Trying To Heal
If You’re Wondering Why You’re Experiencing…
- No progress despite your efforts (two steps forward, one step back) in your healing efforts?
- Confusion about what to do, when to do it, and how to do it?
- The same outcomes and mistakes in relationships and friendships?
- Pain that doesn’t seem to change or leave?
- Shame and guilt that dominates your choices with people?
- Tools, practices, and therapies that are not making any difference?
- Discouragement and a feeling you’re never going to be happy or have a normal life?
- A growing sense that maybe it is YOU that is the problem?
You’ve been encountering the same mistakes 1,000s of other survivors have in their efforts to heal, thrive, love themselves, and build relationships that work and last:
- Not having the right knowledge about what you’re facing and dealing with
- Not having the correct tools and practices for the challenges you face and the results you seek
- Not having the right support that can guide you in understanding how to use the knowledge and tools in YOUR problems and life, and celebrate and support you in your discoveries and challenges
- Not having these things in the correct order so results become reliable, strong, and consistent for you
You wouldn’t try to build a house without a blue-print and list of proper materials and tools, right?
Building your life after codependency is no different. Without the right knowledge, the right tools, the right support, in the right order – FOR YOU – your efforts will fail.
The Truth About Healing Codependency
I’ve been involved in personal healing and growth for 20+ years, and a mentor to codependents for 15+ years, and I have learned on crucial fact over and over: If you have the right tools, knowledge, and support, you *naturally* heal. If you’re not healing and growing, it’s either the knowledge, the tools, or the support that are not correct. The Foundation Trainings solves these problems.
What Makes The Codependency Healing System Different?
Practice-Focused Design
Change does not happen through knowledge gathering or consumption. It happens through practices designed to create the specific result you’re going for.
The Codependency Healing System’s design is based on this truth. You will learn the essential, correct knowledge, and then pair that with practices that make that knowledge into experience, creating the results that lead to more peace, freedom, and joy in your daily life.
Accurate, Up-to-date Knowledge
I don’t teach a course once and let it stand. I actively update the course, it’s materials and tools, throughout the year.
These updates are inspired by a combination of my own ongoing training, healing, and feedback from students and their needs. This makes the Foundation Trainings a living, dynamic course that adapts to its students rather than students adapting to it.
Capacity-Led Pacing
Overwhelm, pressure, fear, and urgency sabotage real healing and real change.
This is why the Codependency Healing System is designed to focus you on your own capacity and grow trust in your own pacing.
This means you go at your own pace and are fully supported at any rate of speed you choose, as there’s no time limits or expiration dates looming. Everything is life-time, unlimited access.
Community-Centered Learning & SUPPORT
Healing codependency alone and isolated does not work (ask me how I know!)
We need safe caring community to support, celebrate, and guide our efforts.
This is why The Foundation Trainings includes unlimited access to live trainings and the Facebook Student Community.
Proven, Real-life Results
The practices, knowledge, and support offered in the Foundation Trainings come from over 10 years of testing, development, and updates.
The results students achieve are a result of this exhaustive effort to ensure things make sense, work, and can be adapted if needed.
That’s the point right? You deserve to get the results you’re investing in. That’s what the Foundation Trainings support you achieving.
Scales with your life
Many courses do not build in adaptability or long-term usefulness. This is a result of not being focused on being able to integrate into your life as a feature.
The Foundation Trainings teach you concepts and practices you can use for the rest of your life, creating long-term returns on your investment.
THE TRAININGS
Focus One: Restoring Your Emotional Safety
We cannot heal when we do not feel safe. Nurture emotional and relational safety through learning skills and practices that heal and nurture emotional pain, mental panic, and build meaningful connections and resources helps the mind and body start to feel safe enough to heal, grow, and evolve.

CORNERSTONE ONE: GO-AT-YOUR-OWN-PACE DESIGN
(Go as slow you need or go at the pace set with the live course classes)
GO AT YOUR OWN PACE
Often pressure to get things done, do things in a specific time frame, or an impulse to please the teacher interferes with organic healing, causing frustration, burnout, fear, shame, and withdraw.
My trainings and practices are designed to accommodate YOU, not you accommodate them. You can go as slow you need or go at the pace set with the live classes.
This allows you the time and flexibility to do the work and live life, too. It also helps you begin trusting your own capacity and body’s wisdom.
CORNERSTONE TWO: ON-DEMAND CLASSES
Marshall Burtcher's Personal Involvement

This work is *living*.
