What if incompatibility is actually grounds for marriage?
What if conflict is growth trying to happen?

Making Marriage Simple is the go-to guide for building a strong marriage in a modern world. Get practical advice from two expert relationship therapists with decades of “R&D” in the marriage lab of international workshops and their own relationship journey. New York Times bestselling authors, Harville Hendrix Ph.D. and Helen LaKelly Hunt Ph.D., distill everything they’ve learned about creating a successful and satisfying relationship into 10 essential truths.

In each chapter, Harville and Helen introduce a simple truth–such as “a frustration is a wish in disguise,” “incompatibility is grounds for marriage,” or “conflict is growth trying to happen.” Then, they walk you through easy, yet effective, exercises to help you apply each truth in real life, every day.

Harville and Helen have spent their careers helping couples transform their marriages through research, workshops, and counseling. Their first book, Getting the Love You Want, was featured 15 times on The Oprah Winfrey Show and a runaway bestseller. However, marriage–even for marriage experts–is never easy, and a number of years ago they found themselves on the brink of divorce. Harville and Helen put themselves back together through the exercises they used coaching other couples, saving their marriage, and helping achieve a true partnership.

Making Marriage Simple offers the practical tools needed to transform one’s relationship into a rewarding and joyous marriage.
Read the strategic blueprint for creating a stronger, more satisfying partnership in today’s world.
