Summary:
"Bestselling author and
relationship
expert, Mira Kirshenbaum examines power dynamics in relationships and teaches
couples
her three-step method for
ending
their power struggles and finding their way back to love. How do two well-meaning people who genuinely care about each other end up in a damaged, unsatisfying
relationship
? Every couple faces
conflict
and often the root of the problem is how we're not getting our needs met. Initially, we will try to remedy it with reasonable requests -- or hints -- and a kind tone. But when that fails, we feel disempowered, which leads to sighs, eye rolls, silences, subtle put-downs, insults, and even threats. These are power moves. And while we often engage in power moves unintentionally, the result is the same: our partner feels disempowered and will try to re-empower themselves. Thus the continuous, endlessly destructive dynamic takes hold.
Relationship
expert Mira Kirshenbaum, bestselling author of Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay, reveals a better way with her three-step method for conflict-free problem solving. By recognizing each partner's power moves, we can instead find mutually satisfying ways to heal our hurts and meet each other's needs. Non-judgmental, compassionate, and wise, this is an indispensable
guide
to help
couples
end the negative cycle and get back to the loving understanding that brought them together in the first place."--Publisher.
