For the full hour, we talk with esteemed psychologists and real-life couple, Drs. John and Julie Gottman, founders of the Gottman Institute, an institution devoted to using research and practice to help strengthen marriages, families, and relationships.
Over the course of fifty years and thirty-five years of their marriage, the Gottmans have studied more than 40,000 couples and written several books, many of which are dedicated to offering advice for improving and building strong relationships and marriages.
The Gottmans discuss their latest book titled, The Love Prescription, Seven Days to More Intimacy, Connection, and Joy. It's a short practical guide to transform your relationship with easy steps that can be done any time. The plan introduces a new relationship-building habit each day of the week.
Drs. John and Julie Gottman also share advice for couples who are interested in enhancing the romance in their relationship, including the proper way to approach a sensitive conversation and avoiding negative behaviors that lead to divorce.
Plus, the Gottmans offer their insight to answer listeners' relationship questions.
The Love Prescription, Seven Days to More Intimacy, Connection, and Joy is available wherever books are sold.
