Highly Recommend for Couples

Well, it all comes down to communication. This audiobook really reminded me of that and made me look at some areas in which I have been complacent over the years....Marriage is work and when communication breaks down, problems start. Listening to this book reminded me of these truths, and I need to step up and focus on communicating clearly, gently and with intention. It was also a good reminder to listen and allow my husband to be heard. Funny, all these years and it is still all about communication.

This book improved my life!

This may be the most useful book I have ever read on improving your relationship. I love how it spends just as much time providing actual help through examples, lists, and suggestions as it does giving information. One thing that really stuck out was how the author goes in depth about 'the blame game', how much damage it does, and how to stop. That really nailed my relationship with my ex-husband. In fact throughout reading the book I began to realize that I knew nothing about healthy communication back when I was married. I really wish I had come across a book like this back then, not because I think it would have saved the marriage (because we were just too different in our views and values), but I KNOW it would have helped me in the relationships I had after that. I'm currently not in a romantic relationship, but I am definitely able to apply the knowledge in this book to any relationship, including with my family, friends, and coworkers. Seriously, get this book. It will improve your life.

Transform Your Relationship

As someone who has experienced the highs and lows of relationships, I found this guide to be profoundly insightful. The emphasis on taking personal responsibility for one’s emotions and behaviors is a game-changer, prompting a deeper introspection that is often missing in typical relationship advice. The book doesn't just tell you what to do; it guides you through the why and how, making the advice stick and the lessons impactful.

Each chapter serves as a stepping stone towards better communication, from discovering your unique communication style to mastering empathy and emotional intelligence. The strategies for resolving conflicts are not just theories; they are practical steps that can be applied immediately, transforming heated arguments into constructive conversations.

What sets this book apart is its universal applicability. It speaks to new couples laying the foundation of their relationship, partners tangled in misunderstandings, and even those simply seeking to deepen their bond. It’s a testament to the fact that no matter the stage of your relationship, communication is the key.

The author's ability to provide foolproof strategies for building trust and safety in communication is commendable. Managing expectations and maintaining long-term, blame-free communication is presented not as an unattainable ideal but as achievable goals.

Totally Amazing

We all think we are great communicators.... but that is just not true. I have been married 30 years and all is good, we are happy! However, nobody should be complacent including us. This was an excellent communication refresher for us. The detail and the step-by-step approach is really good (i.e. with blame, the author walks you through why we blame, why we shouldn't, and 7 steps to stop). Another favorite chapter: blame-free conflict resolution. For couples like us, this has the potential to significantly increase the quality of our relationship. and for others, it could be the game changer that keeps you together and moves you towards true happiness with each other. Great book, thanks!!

Communication is Key

Anyone who's been in a relationship knows that when you and your partner do not communicate well, an array of issues will arise which often could have been avoided if each partner understood healthy communication. My husband was raised in a family where you just ignore the problem and it will go away. I was raised in a family that we say something while it's happening and handle it. It has taken us years to try to find a happy middle ground and we are still trying, which is why this book was needed. So since I prefer to talk about the problem the moment it is happening, chapter 7 was important for me to really listen to because without being able to step away from the moment, I often tend to point the finger just to win the argument. Instead, understanding why patience and blame avoidance are crucial is giving me a new way to think through a conversation or issue before I start jumping into a conversation.

I liked that the book did not focus on one typical type of relationship. I think that makes the book more relatable to more people. I also marked parts in the book about the importance of empathy and emotional intelligence in building strong relationships. I tend to just stick to facts when we are in a disagreement and tend to lack empathy so I have told my husband that I am going to try harder to understand more of where he is coming from of why he may have done certain things instead of just looking at what did happen. I need to learn to look at the whole picture which includes intent.

Very happy I listened to this book with my husband. I think we both learned a lot and realized we are not alone in our problems.
