Inspiring Conversations with Christina Weber of WeDeepen

Today we’d like to introduce you to Christina Weber.

Hi Christina, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
It started with a question I couldn’t shake: why is something as fundamental as love, the thing we all want most, the thing no one teaches us how to do?

In 2014, I was living in New York City throwing dating events called “Underground Unattached.” The idea was simple. Get enough dope people in one room and we’d all live happily ever after. And for a while, it felt like that might actually be true. But two years in, I noticed something the events couldn’t solve. People walked in carrying so much. Pressure. Expectations. Nervous energy. Old stories of heartbreak and childhood insecurities. A great party wasn’t going to heal that.

So I went looking. And I discovered an entire industry dedicated to the things they never taught us in school. Communication skills, conflict resolution, attachment theory, somatic work, tantra. Real tools for real relationships. That discovery became WeDeepen, think ClassPass for love and thriving relationships. A curated network connecting people to the best teachers, coaches, and experiences in the relationship space.

Since then, it’s taken on a life of its own. I launched WeDeepen’s Love Club, a membership community, and Love Immersion, a multi-day retreat where people come to mastermind their love life with world-class love and relationship experts. I created The Dating Dojo with psychotherapist Ken Page, LCSW. I concepted “Shop & Shag” at Erewhon in LA, a dating movement that landed on the cover of LA Magazine, got picked up by the Bill Maher Show and Good Day LA, and showed me how hungry people are for in-person connections over apps. I keep going with Feminine Weapon, a philanthropic movement that’s raised over $100,000 for children experiencing abuse and trafficking. I continued hosting MediDating, a town hall on love that opens with group meditation. And I have a podcast, Deepen with Christina, where I’ve talked with John Gray, Gay and Katie Hendricks, Dave Asprey, and Dawn Cartwright about what love actually looks like in action, as a skill and when you feel it in your body.

Through all of it, I championed The Four Pillars of a Conscious Relationship — a framework I keep coming back to after years of studying and teaching this work. Prioritize Growth. Own Your Own Sh*t. All Feelings Are Welcome. Practice Love. Simple, grounded, and useful in every relationship. Romance, friendship, business, and beyond.

I’m originally from Annapolis, Maryland. I’ve lived in New York and Los Angeles, and I now call Austin home. I’m an ICF-certified coach and iPEC trained. But honestly, the credential that matters most is that I’ve lived this — the heartbreak, the breakthroughs, the 90-day no contact, the falling in love again. Everything I teach comes from somewhere real.

Austin has been the perfect place to root this work. The people here are open, curious, and willing to go deeper. That’s all I’ve ever asked for.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Definitely not a smooth road. Not even close.

The biggest challenge has been building something that doesn’t have a clear category yet. When I started WeDeepen, there was no “relationship industry” the way there’s a fitness industry or a wellness industry. People understood going to the gym. They understood therapy. But telling someone you run a company dedicated to helping people get better at love? That got a lot of blank stares. I had to build the language, the positioning, and the trust from scratch.

Financially, it’s been a grind. I bootstrapped everything. There were stretches where I was pouring every dollar back into events, facilitators, and production, hoping the audience would show up. Sometimes they did. Sometimes they didn’t. I’ve had events where the room was electric and events where I lost money and questioned everything.

Then there’s the personal side. I teach love for a living, and I’ve lived it publicly in ways I didn’t always expect. I went through a 90-day no contact period that completely rewired how I understand love and attachment. I talked about it on stages. It became one of the most powerful teaching moments in my work. I was in a relationship with a public figure, and with that came a level of visibility I wasn’t prepared for. Being on stage together, being introduced by him at conferences, having people form opinions about your love life before you’ve even processed it yourself. When we experienced hard times, the heartbreak wasn’t just private. When your love life has an audience, you learn very quickly what’s real and what’s performance.

The other thing people don’t talk about is how lonely entrepreneurship can be, especially when your work is about connection. You’re holding space for everyone else’s relationships while quietly figuring out your own. That tension has been one of my greatest teachers.

I wouldn’t trade any of it. Every closed door, every empty room, every heartbreak pushed me closer to the work I’m actually meant to do.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
WeDeepen is a curated network of the best teachers, coaches, and experiences in the relationship space. We connect people to world-class facilitators and transformational experiences that help them build the kind of connection they always wanted but didn’t know how to create and maintain.

What sets us apart is that we’re not just one modality or one coach. We source and curate across the entire relationship industry. Communication, somatic work, attachment theory, tantra, conflict resolution, Human Design, erotic blueprints. Whatever someone needs, we match them with the right guide and the right experience. One of the things I’m most grateful for is getting to work alongside facilitators I deeply respect. Annie Lalla, Ariana Hall, Rod Hairston, Yossef Sagi, just to name a few. The quality of the people in this network is what makes it work.

The other thing that sets us apart is that this isn’t theoretical for me. Your intimacy journey is your life story. Mine is woven into everything we build. I believe love is a lifelong practice of removing layers of ego, combined with ever increasing acts of sharing. You give more of yourself to the people who matter. That means expanding your range, increasing your comfort zone, and staying honest when it would be easier not to. We don’t proclaim to have the answers. We’re in the experiment with you. That’s the ethos behind everything at WeDeepen.

Our home base for that is Love Club, a membership community where people come together to practice this stuff in real time. It’s not a course you watch alone. It’s a living room of people doing the work alongside each other.

What I’m most proud of is the range. Multi-day retreats, research-backed workshops, a podcast with some of the most respected voices in love and relationships, a philanthropic arm that’s changed real lives, and a town hall format that opens with meditation before getting into the raw, honest stuff about sex, love, and what’s actually working.

We’re based in Austin, and we’re building something that I believe will be as normal as going to the gym one day. A place where people invest in their relationships with the same intention they invest in their health.

What matters most to you?
Truth. In every form. Truth in how we love, truth in how we show up, truth in what we’re willing to look at in ourselves.

I think most of the pain in relationships comes from hiding. Hiding what we feel, hiding what we need, hiding who we actually are. And we do it because somewhere along the way we learned that the real version of us wasn’t safe to share. The work I do is about undoing that. Giving people a space where all of it is welcome. The mess, the fear, the desire, the joy. All of it.

What matters to me is that people stop performing love and start practicing it. That they learn how to have the hard conversation instead of avoiding it. That they take responsibility for their own wounds instead of blaming the person closest to them. That they prioritize growth over comfort.

I also care deeply about children. I believe the way we love as adults directly shapes the world children grow up in. That’s why Feminine Weapon exists. That work grounds everything else.

At the end of the day, what matters most is that people feel permission to be honest. With themselves first, and then with the people they love. That’s where everything changes.
