Publisher's summary

No relationship can survive without communication. Discover how you can rekindle your relationship by following this seven step action plan.

Do you and your partner constantly have disagreements that lead to explosive fights?

Is there something you want to talk to your partner about, but are afraid of bringing up?

Quarrels and misunderstandings are a normal part of any relationship, and their occurrence doesn’t necessarily mean your relationship is in trouble.

The key to any relationship is to be intentional and have open communication and active listening skills.

That means being able to ask your partner for what you need, telling them how they made you feel or pointing out things they could work on…and vice versa.

Unfortunately, when you don’t know how to communicate well, you either resort to keeping quiet, or end up having arguments that lead nowhere.

“You can’t see the picture when you’re in the frame.” (Les Brown)

With this guide, you and your partner can learn Effective Communication Skills for Couples. We'll show you a sensible approach to eliminating communication gaps, building healthier relationships, and becoming active listeners.

Inside, you’ll discover:

  • A seven step action plan for strengthening communication with your partner and mending your relationship.
  • The essential ingredients of a strong relationship (and how you can nurture these qualities in your own relationships).
  • The biblical principle God put in place to save our relationships from calamity.
  • Nine modern-day dating personalities and how they impact the quality of a relationship
  • How your childhood traumas can explain the reasons behind your present trust issues.
  • Ten red flags telling you that you have serious communication problems with your partner–and how to fix them

And much more!

Whatever issue you’re dealing with–trust, intimacy, financial–they can only be resolved when you learn to communicate with each other.

By choosing to sweep things under the rug for the sake of sparing each other’s feelings, you’re only doing your relationship and family a disservice.

You and your partner can get through anything with these as your foundation. You and your partner can go from conflicts to connections in your relationship.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Hard work is the realiteit

"This is an excellent book for anyone in a significant relationship, whether it's going through a challenging phase or somewhere in between. As the writer points out, maintaining a relationship can be hard work, and this book covers it all. With great examples and relatable situations, everyone can find something to connect with.

The 7 key steps are genuinely helpful. Often, it feels like taking two steps forward, and one step backward, but the book encourages not to give up. The worksheets provided are fantastic and can spark meaningful conversations.

Additionally, the writer is clear about what to do in a toxic relationship. Many terms are used in the book about different kind of relationships (like Bread crumbling and Gaslighting) that I didn't even understand before, and the book helps clarify their meanings.

I highly recommend this book for anyone looking to improve their relationships."
