Corkie Mann is a keynote speaker, relationship educator, and author specializing in long-term marriage restoration and intentional connection. She is the creator of the “Roommates to Romance” and developed a practical 12-Minutes-a-Day 3 step method to help couples reconnect, a practical system designed to help couples rebuild emotional safety and rekindle connection through simple daily practices.
Married for 36 years, Corkie understands firsthand the seasons of struggle and renewal that many couples face. After navigating 15 challenging years marked by emotional distance and multiple counseling attempts, she and her late husband rebuilt their connection and went on to share 21 deeply fulfilling years together. That lived- transformation became the foundation of her work.
Today, Corkie has been married to her husband Dennis for eight years. From the beginning of their marriage, they intentionally practiced the daily principles she now teaches — a simple yet powerful 12-Minutes-a-Day approach built around presence, appreciation, and warmth.
Corkie is the author of “Roommates to Romance, 12 Minutes a Day to Passion” and “Charge Up Your Life, 12 Minutes a Day to Success,” and a contributing co-author alongside Jack Canfield in the bestselling book “Mastering the Art of Success.” She also served as co-producer of the documentary “Getting Everything You Can Out of All You’ve Got: The Jay Abraham Story ...Meet the 9 Billion dollar Man”
She speaks at women’s conferences, chamber events, marriage retreats, and leadership gatherings, offering a hopeful message along with simple, practical steps couples can take home and begin practicing immediately.
Her mission is simple: to help couples move from disconnection to lasting, fulfilling love — one small practice of 12 minutes a day.
Corkie’s work reminds audiences “The spark isn’t gone.
It’s just waiting to be re-ignited.”
