Publisher's summary

Communication in relationships is all about telling the other party about your feelings, desires, fears, frustrations, dreams, etc. However, effective communication is also about getting heard. You might spend several minutes telling your partner about something that is disturbing you, but are they really paying attention? Are your words going to have any impact on them?

Effective communication is not only about what you are trying to say, but how and when you decide to say it. Relationships, whether between friends, parents and children, or romantic partners, do not exist in a vacuum. Relationships exist between emotional human beings who have different likes, dislikes, expectations, and past experiences. For people with so many differences to exist together in harmony, there is a need for effective communication in relationships. Unfortunately, most people think that because they talk regularly with their spouses, parents, kids, or in-laws, they are automatically communicating. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Communication involves far more than just talking. Communication involves creating a deep connection with and understanding the other person. Good communication is a key ingredient in a good relationship, while poor communication can break an otherwise good relationship.

Luckily, good communication is a skill like any other, which means it can be learned. In this audiobook, you will learn ways to grow a deeper connection with your friends, parents, kids, in-laws, or significant other.

What you will find in the audiobook:

  • Introduction to communication in relationships
  • Understand the five languages of love
  • Learn the art of small talk
  • Understand the keys to getting heard
  • Set boundaries in your relationships
  • Managing relationship conflicts through communication

  • What weakens and destroys relationships

It is all worth it.

I’m beginning to understand that this has some life hacks I can master but they’re not shortcuts. It will take a lot of work and dedication in our part to improve our communication skills but I believe it is all worth it.

These practices can be simple but miraculous.

I was so busy establishing my career that I failed to think of my husband's needs. Encountering this is a blessing in disguise. Build more affection and less conflict with this handy guide. These practices can be simple but miraculous.

Thanks for enlightening me

This is the truth: Most partners have difficulty in communicating with others. That's why books like this are a must. Any relationship or marriage will benefit from this.
