The REAL DEAL

Erica
New York

Dr. Buckingham is “the REAL DEAL” when it comes to discussing topics pertaining to dating and relationships. I was completely thrown off when I listed my strengths and was told that they were superficial qualities. In one 45 minute session with Dr. Buckingham I learned more about myself and dating than I did paying thousands of dollars to Matchmaker.

One of the Best Relationship Workshops I Have Ever Attended

Erica
St. Louis, MO

Dr. Buckingham’s “Unconditional Love: What Every Woman and Man Desires in a Relationship” workshop that was presented during the Healthy Marriage Conference in St. Louis was one of the best relationship workshops I have ever attended. I learned a lot about the difference between love and unconditional love.

I Have Seen Remarkable Changes in My Son

Dr. Buckingham is a knowledgeable life coach and his positive and uplifting approach in regards to working with youth is amazing.

Inspiring Me to Reach Deep

Marques Roger
Memphis, TN

My coaching sessions with Dr. Buckingham have been refreshing! He has slowly begun a process of introducing me to me!

Dr. Buckingham is inspiring me to reach deep and not to be afraid to truly live a positive life.

I Am Better Equipped to Lead

Lyrics Make You Feel Good Inside and Out

Cynthia Cross

The CD is very inspirational and has a good melody. I am amazed with Dwayne. The lyrics have meaning and make you feel good inside and out. I love the first song, My Queen and Backbone. Dwayne lets black women know that we desire more than what we settle for. Excellent CD!

Really Gets to the Meat of What Women Really Want to Know

Angela
St. Louis, MO

Loved, loved, loved the book! Great work! All of the chapters were good. What stuck out most was about psychological warfare, who influences him, relationship qualities, and the whole screening guide…oh, and the list of values. I’ll be having that discussion this weekend. The questions and answers at the end were the best. I should just read that first. LOL. I like the humor throughout too, especially since the first part almost made me cry (the part about the girl in college). The book just really gets to the meat of what women really want to know which is WHY?! I can look at all my past relationships and really understand who I was dealing with at that time as well as why I was dealing with them.

Blessed to Hear Such a Beautiful Song

Dr. Shonta Smith
St. Louis, MO

I attended the live performance of My Conqueror in St. Louis, MO and was blessed to hear such a beautiful song. I enjoyed the performance because our black men often do not hear anything positive about them. The song inspires black men to embrace their roles as conquerors. I loved it.

Thank You for Giving Me Understanding

Regina
Indianapolis, IN

I purchased your book Qualified, yet Single, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. Thank you for giving me understanding in some areas that I just quite didn’t understand. I will pass the word on about how good of a writer you are and how good your book was. I will be purchasing more of your books. Thanks again and God bless you.

Absolutely LOVE the Book!

Rochelle
St. Louis, MO

Absolutely LOVE the book! Wow. It just cleared up my dating life in seconds…lol. I was making a clean sweep of all these men who tell me they want to be around but who really were not… And then I read “the screening guide” I am on the right path. You pretty much told me what their issues were as to why I felt they were not measuring up. THANKS!

I Loved the Film

Angie Williams
St. Louis, MO

A Black Woman’s Worth is a heartfelt film that celebrates Black women. I loved the film because it showed that Black women and men can have healthy and loving relationships. I left the theatre feeling hopeful about being able to be loved and treated like a Queen. Thank you for giving back to the community.

Every Black Woman Should See This Film

Dorothy Jones
North Carolina

A Black Woman’s Worth is an excellent film. I watched it with my twelve year old daughter and we both really liked it. I think every Black woman should see this film. It reminds us of how important and special we are to the Black community.

Dr. Buckingham is a Dynamic Speaker

Powerful Message

A True Christian Man

I plan on reading your books on my vacation next month. I am truly a blessed woman to have met a man of your caliber. You are a true Christian man and I appreciate you.

I’m Still Reading!!

Natasha Ford
St. Louis, MO

Dr. Dwayne, first of all, like with movies when something doesn’t catch my attention, I’m easily bored and I stop reading and watching. Let’s just say I’m still reading!! Unconditional Love: What Every Woman and Man Desires in a Relationship is awesome! Have a whole lot of questions. I really liked the poem!!!

An Excellent Film

Dr. Leon W. Chestang
PhD Dean, School of Social Work, Jackson State University Jackson, MS

I have been in the social service field for over 20 years and have reviewed hundreds if not thousands of films about issues that affect is one of the best I have ever seen. It highlights hardships ranging from slavery to modern day. This is an excellent film that sheds light on struggles that millions of Black males face daily. It also offers hope to Black Males who inspire to be Conquerors and Heads of Households.

The Best Life Coach I Have Ever Worked With

Lanette
Satisfied Client

Dr. Dwayne is the best life coach that I have ever worked with. He helped me learn things about myself that other life coaches did not notice or address. I look forward to my coaching sessions because I learn so much about myself and relationships.

A Diamond in the Rough

Thelma L. HaGood
Human Resource Director,
First Baptist Church
of Glenarden Landover, MD

Brother Buckingham is a diamond is the rough. His book entitled “A Black Man’s Worth” is a must have. He identified the psychological problems that many black males experience daily and offers them strategies to conqueror them. I purchased a “A Black Woman’s Worth” as well and plan to read it immediately. I am going to tell everyone who enters my office to purchase Brother Buckingham’s books.

A Wonderful Book

Shareeda Bennett
Washington, D.C.

My name is Shareeda Bennett, I’m the young lady from the train. I would like to thank you for giving me the opportunity to read your book. I started reading it yesterday and I am already on chapter 3. I just cannot seem to put it down. Everything you have in the book it is so true. I think this is a wonderful book. Again, thank you for allowing me the opportunity to read your book! I am so happy someone was bold enough to finally speak the truth.

A Must Have!

Dr. Stacey Nichols
St. Louis, MO

No one can match Dr. Dwayne Buckingham when it comes to self motivation. His book, Unconditional Love: What Every Woman and Man Desires in a Relationship is a very inspiring and enlightening book that causes individuals to self reflect as they embark on their journey to building and strengthening relationships. Steve Harvey’s book provides good insight into how a man thinks, but Dwayne Buckingham’s book provides excellent insight that helps women understand how to love themselves and their men. A must have!

The Fresh Breath I Was Waiting to Inhale

Pastor Denise Johnson
New Journey Baptist Church
St. Louis, MO

A Black Woman’s Worth” was truly the fresh breath I was waiting to inhale. The message brought down the walls that seem to divide the black man from the black woman from slavery to the present day. For the first time in a long time, the love I’ve given, the sacrifices and contributions I’ve made were recognized. I felt understood and like the songstress said, “I Feel Like Going On.

Your Seminar Touched the Inner Core of My Soul

Sylvia Brown
St. Louis, MO

Let me first start off by saying Dr. Buckingham, you are truly a man of God. I went to your seminar and it touched the inner core of my soul. This seminar made you face those character flaws and why we as women behave the way we do. I have always lived in fear, always afraid of trying the simplest things in life due to having been raised by an intimidating and controlling that haunted me for so long. After leaving the seminar I read your book twice and bought a copy for my daughter. Thank you man of God!

A Man That’s Making a Difference

Michelle Greene
Atlanta, GA

An outstanding man in my life that has committed himself to making this a better world is my life coach, Dr. Dwayne L. Buckingham. Through his achievements he has been a father figure to everyone he comes into contact with. Dr. Buckingham is a psychotherapist, author, activist, and CEO/founder of R.E.A.L. Horizons Consulting Service, LLC. He believes everyone should know and understand their worth and has communicated those beliefs through multiple seminars and his two books, A Black Man’s Worth: Conqueror and Head of Household and A Black Woman’s Worth: My Queen and Backbone.

I met Dr. Buckingham and immediately knew that he was a respectable man. Dr. Buckingham has been guidance in my life by helping me set goals, prepare for my future, and understand my self worth. I read A Black Woman’s Worth, after having a long personal conversation with Dr. Buckingham about relationships.

The book gave me insight and knowledge about being in a healthy relationship with a male. Not having a father figure growing up and few respectable women role models, Dr. Buckingham took me under his presence and made me realize how important my temple is (body) and my worth as a young woman. I encourage others to get to know this positive powerful gentleman that has committed himself to others. Dr. Dwayne L. Buckingham deserves to be celebrated as a man that’s making a difference.
