Publisher's summary

The art of effectively communicating with your partner in relationship:

Is a simple, effective, and psychological approach to understanding why you have communication issues, and how you can use the appropriate skills and tools to mitigate conflicts and improve your communication in your relationship.

Having difficulties in communication in relationships is okay, and you don’t have to feel ashamed about it, as you are by no means alone. Most couples have conflict in their relationships mainly because the recipient gets a different message than the sender intended.

In this book, you will discover:

  • Several reasons why you have communication issues in your relationship—especially through the aid of psychological models
  • Communication is effective when the intended message is decoded with less interference and misinterpretations
  • Effective ways to make your partner understand what you are communicating
  • That the art of communicating effectively will equip you with the right skills and tools to communicate with your partner effectively
  • That this book also considers other psychological aspects, including specific communication models such as the four sides of a message to make communication clearer
  • It takes two to tango and that means that communication improvement comes from you and your partner
  • Ultimately you will be in charge of your communication—you will understand why your communication in your relationship is distorted, what is necessary to fix it, and how to go about it

It may sound simple, but it requires some effort and dedication from you.

We wish you much fun listening to this book, and most importantly, we hope you can derive valuable recommendations to improve your communication in your relationship. That is our joy.

Great insight into communication styles

Great book pertaining to communication styles! This book provides a psychological approach to understanding one another instead of wondering why your partner can't understand you. The mutual perspective this book provides is essential to communicating on an equal footing. As the book describes communication as a tango between a couple, so in life each partner has to take cues from the other in order to effectively dane or communicate together. This book is clear and concise and a great way to develop a strong relationship that benefits both.

Great Book!

I currently struggle with my partner with communication and it has damaged our relationship and we both agree that it's our communication. We are both working on UT slowly but I really think this book can help us improve it significantly! . I will definitely share this with my partner because I learned myself where I need improvement with the communication and he can also learned where he needs to improve on with his communication. I highly recommend it!

Something for everyone!!

This audio book is an excellent tool for fine tuning communication skills. The authors dive deep into the psychology of communication to lay a foundation. They cover an array of topics such as conflict management, body language, root causes of conflict, active listening , and connecting emotionally with your partner to name a few. They offer examples and thought provoking exercises to practice with your partner. Self reflection on ways we can improve is something that would benefit everyone. With divorce rates so high, I think this should be taught in schools as a life skill that can be applied in all relationships. Get your pen and paper out for the exercises provided in this book!!

Extremely helpful Tips for Effective Communication

This book has been beneficial in my marriage. From the start, chapter 1 highlights that communicating with your partner can be intentional and unintentional. Thus, we communicate with our partners through body language, facial expressions, and the like (even when we don't believe we are communicating). I've already applied some of the tactics in my marriage, and my spouse has taken note of the difference. I will continue to use the tools from this book. Highly recommend it to any couple seeking to build better communication.

Great tool!

Communication is the key to any good relationship. Without an effective communication, the relationship will deteriorate to a point to where it won't last anymore. That is why I am very interested in the topic of communication and why I got this audiobook. A lot of books on this topic just discuss communication in a very theoretical way. They do not go deep on the topic and bring concrete examples and exercises. However, this audiobook is all the opposite. Is packed with very in depth analysis and practical tips that I can start applying today. Thank you!
