"Elizabeth Earnshaw's gentle guidance will help any type of couple, whether they are dealing with small day-to-day problems or long-standing conflicts. She takes an accessible approach to couples therapy on the page, making these relationship tools feel easy--and even fun." <p/>--Lori Gottlieb, LMFT, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone
<p/>A contemporary, culturally inclusive, and easy-to-digest relationship book for the modern age <p/>Today's generation is changing the rules about committed relationships--and looking to create more meaning within their lives. We are more selective before getting married, with more diverse families and family structures, and we've seen a whopping 18 percent drop in divorce rates. In this new environment, what couples need more than ever are effective, flexible tools to communicate, navigate hard times, and create deeper connections with their partners. <p/>Elizabeth Earnshaw is here to help. The renowned Gottman therapist, founder of A Better Life Therapy, and influential Instagram therapist behind @lizlistens has helped to transform countless relationships. With I Want This to Work, she presents for today's generation the most effective and proven steps for relationship success. <p/>"We're in a cultural moment," she says, "where people are hungry to absorb the principles for healthy relationships. This book answers that call." <p/>Here, couples will learn how to work with the three challenges they must tackle to repair and strengthen their relationships: conflict, healing, and connection. They'll learn fundamental principles including: <p/>- Why it's not working
- Creating space that makes it safe to connect
- How to navigate hot conversations
- The five-part relationship system
- Busting the romantic notion that our better half "completes" us
- Growing up and growing out--how both your early years and the social connections you make as an adult influence your relational beliefs, feelings, and patterns <p/>In a supportive and relatable voice, Elizabeth simplifies complex concepts and provides core insights, exercises, and reflections to take these tested principles from the page and into real life. <p/>Culturally tuned in, LGBTQIA+ friendly, and written for both married and unmarried couples, this book brings us an accessible guide to relationship healing and creating enduring intimacy.
