About this audiobook
Laura Doyle's marriage was in trouble, and couples counseling wasn't helping. On the brink of divorce, she decided to talk to women who'd been happily married for over a decade, and their advice stunned her. Now an internationally-recognized relationship expert, Doyle has shared her secrets with women around the globe, saving thousands of marriages with her fresh, revolutionary approach.
Practical and counter-intuitive, the Six Intimacy Skills are about focusing on your own desires and transforming your own life-not bending over backwards to transform your husband. Incorporating these skills will empower you to: attract his attention like a magnet when you relax more and do less; receive affection not because you told him to make more of an effort, but because he naturally seeks you out; and feel more like yourself-and like yourself more.
If you've been trying to "fix" your relationship and it's not working, maybe the problem was never you, or your husband, or even the two of you as a couple. Maybe the problem is that nobody ever taught you the skills you need to foster respect, tenderness, and consideration.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Phenomenal work I enjoyed and I’m practicing every bit of what’s been said. Thank you Laura
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Absolute drivel. Respect goes both ways. And advising a wife to lie about how she’s feeling in the relationship to protect her husband’s fragile man who is just grossly bad advice.
