Couples who thrive

Loading player...
These days we aim simply for survival .. getting through another day. What can we learn from couples who Thrive? Do they have less challenges or fewer problems? Of course not! It’s not whether there are difficulties .. it’s how they deal with them that determines Thrival.

3. Communication: how to talk so your partner listens. And how to listen so your partner talks.
