Episode Description
From the mania of the honeymoon phase to the depths of loneliness and despair, I will teach you how to be married in today's world. I will provide concrete common-sense tools that will lift the cloud over your lives and move you into the next phase of peace. I will teach how men and women think and what their needs are (not wants). Take notes, listen and learn. Fixing a marriage takes people who are committed to change and will take action. I don't have time for the "Waiting for you to change" and the "I'll Try" people. Also, we don't need those who go to therapy to say "I Did Everything" before they divorce. I invite them to read a self-help book about the "Life of a Turd". If you never did marriage right, then you now have a chance. Get over yourself and join if you wish. What the heck, it is not actual therapy. I will discuss all the elements that make marriage work from communication, trust, love, sex, finances, love languages, patterns, listening and respect.
