A word from Van and Tammy….
Hosea 4:6 says “My people perish from lack of knowledge.”
Before we found The Color Code, we were perishing in our 25 year marriage. From the moment we discovered our core colors, until now, our relationship as a couple, our relationships with our daughters, and all our relationships in life have been enhanced, and made more fulfilling and successful. Our passion, as Color Code trainers, comes from the real life experience of having been helped so much personally, along with our genuine desire to share with others.

We would love to serve you, by presenting, facilitating, and training the life changing principles and truths of The Color Code!”
