Real-life starting points
We focus on the everyday moments couples recognize: not feeling heard, struggling to make time, or wanting calmer conversations.
Real connection.
Thoughtfully supported.
Technology should make it easier to connect with the people we love—not take the place of those connections.
Eleanor is virtual. The connections you build are real.
WHO ELEANOR HAYES ISAn AI-created face.
An AI-created face.
A very human purpose.
Eleanor Hayes is a fictional, AI-generated brand persona. She represents our digital relationship resource brand. She is not a real person, a licensed therapist, a psychologist, or a relationship counselor.
We want you to know who—and what—you’re seeing. We never want technology to be confused with personal experience or professional credentials.
Our materials are intended to help real people ask thoughtful questions, reflect, and make space for meaningful conversations with the people they love.
OUR EDITORIAL PROMISEThoughtfully created.
Thoughtfully created.
Human-reviewed.
Every Eleanor Hayes resource is reviewed by a real person before publication. We look for clear language, meaningful questions, respectful communication, and practical exercises.
Our editorial review helps us make the materials more useful and easier to follow. It is not a clinical review or a substitute for professional counseling.
HOW WE THINK ABOUT THESE RESOURCESThoughtful tools.
Thoughtful tools.
Clear expectations.
You should be able to preview the materials, understand their limits, and know how they are reviewed before deciding.
Tools you can actually see
Instead of asking you to trust a promise, we show real workbook pages and offer a free sample to try on your own.
AI-created. Human-reviewed.
Eleanor Hayes is a fictional AI-created character. A real person reviews our resources for clarity, respectful language, and practical usefulness. These educational tools are not therapy.
A clear launch checklist
Before opening checkout, we plan to proofread and check the files, finish all seven recordings, test downloads, and publish complete purchasing terms.
THE IDEAS BEHIND THE EXERCISES
Research-informed ideas. Everyday conversations.
Our self-guided resources explore emotional openness, attentive listening, appreciation, shared experiences, and handling disagreements with care. These themes appear in relationship research, and we have adapted them into approachable, original exercises for everyday life.
The Eleanor Hayes Workbook and its 90-day program have not been clinically evaluated as a product. The studies below concern related principles and programs, not proof that our specific exercises will improve any individual relationship. These educational tools are not therapy or professional counseling.
