About this listen

 Leading relationship expert and best selling author Dr. John Gottman presents a revolutionary five-step program for repairing troubled relationships - with spouses, children, friends, and even colleagues. Drawing on a host of powerful new studies Gottman provides the tools you need to make your relationships thrive.

Introducing the empowering concept of the "emotional bid," Gottman shows that all good relationships are built through a process of making and receiving successful bids. His simple yet life-transforming program shows listeners how to become master bidders by effectively turning toward others. He draws on the latest research to show listeners how the brain's unique emotional command systems, as well as each person's emotional heritage - their upbringing, life experiences, and enduring vulnerabilities - affect how they make and receive bids, and how to make adjustments. He then introduces a set of enjoyable and remarkably effective ways to deepen connections by finding shared meaning and honoring one another's dreams. The final chapter offers specially tailored programs for life's most important relationships: with lovers or spouses, children, adult siblings, friends, and co-workers.

About communication skills

This is a great book for anyone who wants to improve their communication skills with their romantic partners, friends and even business relationships. W e often miss valuable opportunities to create deeper connections with others because we're not paying attention to the signals. Everyone should read it.

very useful

amazing..will use the ideas in my marriage, as a parent and as a small business owner. feels like ideas I've always known but needed reminders and to solidify these instincts. also new ideas and validation for animal instincts to NOT give my energy and attention too! a delicate dance. thank you for this book of wisdom. ❤️
