Why Your Marriage is Worth the Fight

Why your marriage is worth the fight

From my article on Huffington Post this afternoon:

I sit with them. Listen to them. Dine in their homes. Meet their families. Explore their cities. Learn their greatest marriage and life lessons.

I research happiness. More specifically, what makes a marriage not just work, but work well…really well.

I interview couples happily married more than a quarter century to figure out how they did it and how what they’ve done can be replicated. I then pull all that research together to determine the common denominators.

There are 12 secrets that I’ve uncovered so far…and my journey of discovery is far from over.

When you sit among a couple who has been looking into each other’s eyes, holding each other’s hands, laughing at one another’s jokes, teasing each other about their various flaws and idiosyncrasies, and supporting each other through this crazy thing called life for at least 25 years, something becomes very clear.

We were not created to be alone. We were made to love. We were designed to be loved.

Join me for the rest of this article, Your Marriage is Worth the Fight at Huffington Post (who I wrote it for earlier today)

Until tomorrow…make it a great day!

Happy Wives Club Book

 

THE NEW YORK TIMES® BEST-SELLING BOOK: It’s been described as, “Like Eat, Pray, Love but not down on marriage.” Make sure to check out the Happy Wives Club book.  I had the great honor of traveling to 12 countries on 6 continents, interviewing couples happily married 25 years or more, with 1 mission only: to find out what makes marriages happy…and keeps them that way.  It’s a marriage book like none other.  Guaranteed.
