A new book by Joe Dillon
Most couples know
how to argue.
Few know how to negotiate.
Nearly two decades of divorce mediation. More than a thousand couples. One pattern, every time: it was never really about the money, the kids, or who forgot to empty the dishwasher. It was about how they asked each other for things, and how they answered. How to Win at Marriage gives you the tools to get what you need without losing each other in the process.

By the numbers
"They didn't fail their marriage because they stopped loving each other. They failed because nobody ever taught either of them how to have a productive conversation that ends with concrete results."
From How to Win at Marriage
Inside the Book
Practical tools. Real couples.
Fewer nights on the couch.
Whether you're asking for a guys' trip to Vegas or telling your spouse you got a job offer in another city, the hard part usually isn't the request. It's how you ask, how you listen, and what you're willing to give.
"A reluctant yes is more expensive than an honest no."
One of Joe's rules. There are a lot more where that came from.
