About this listen
Do you want to turn your relationship crisis into relational connection?
Do you want a way to improve your relationship without counseling?
What if the way you say things to your partner could re-connect you?
And, what if it's easier than you think?
For more than two decades, Jack Ito, PhD, has coached thousands of men and women to rescue and rebuild their relationships in the wake of relationship disasters including affairs, psychological problems, addictions, and total loss of love by one partner. In this groundbreaking book, he uses effective communication techniques to help you turn any marital conflict situation into an opportunity for emotional connection.
Dr. Ito's methods for building connection are empowering. In this book, he teaches the difference between sincere agreement and giving in (giving in actually reduces attraction), how to deal with an angry partner, a rejecting partner, and an uncooperative partner. Many people either argue with or avoid such partners, which only creates more distance in the relationship. If you have ever tried to end conflict or build your relationship by arguing with or avoiding your partner, you know it just doesn't work.
And, while giving space may reduce conflict, it never does anything to actually repair the damage to your relationship. Healing can happen even when you think your relationship is over. By learning to verbally get on your partner's side, you will end all resistance and remove the elephant from the room. This will also remove the tension from your relationship and allow you and your spouse to begin to enjoy being with each other again.

Hope in a hopeless situation
I am struggling in my relationship and have not had much hope for things improving. This book has given me some ideas of how I can further improve the way I appear in my relationship, and if the solution how I will appear in future relationships.
At the very least I feel a lot less anger towards my spouse.

Life changing
I stumbled upon Jack’s books after spending months dealing with a highly manipulative spouse who is always angry when things don’t go his way. Other books and articles tell you to leave but Jack’s gives you tried and tested behavioural methods to deal with situations as they arise. After feeling down, alone and like I was walking on egg shells for so long, his books have given me the confidence to set strong boundaries that build respect and also the skills to improve not only my personal relationship but my friendships too. As an unknowingly needy person from an unstable family these books have helped me make sense of my life in a way that therapy never has. I feel empowered.
I’d recommend to anybody who is shy, comes from an unstable family background, feels alone, struggles making friends, is unhappy in their relationship.
All his books come together to create the loving guidance we never received.
