In the face of the next season of life, it is possible for your relationship to grow even sweeter.

Better Share : How Couples Can Tackle The Mental Load For More Fun, Less Re
$29.99Transform your marriage and enjoy your spouse again when you share the mental load and end the cycle of stress and resentment.
Relationship expert Dr. Morgan Cutlip helps couples view the mental load–the endless and mostly invisible work of managing a household and family–as a shared enemy to conquer versus a problem they have with each other, offering practical solutions for navigating the most common pain points couples struggle with.
Usually a few years after “I do”–once the reality of family life hits–many couples find themselves at each other’s throats because they don’t know how to navigate the mental and emotional work of managing a household together. They worry that they’ll always be fighting about who should do the dishes or pick up the balloons for the party, but don’t know how to begin talking about their frustrations without pointing fingers.
In A Better Share, Dr. Morgan Cutlip offers you practical advice that goes beyond getting your spouse to pick up the slack and focuses on the unique perspectives and experiences of each partner, enabling both of you to feel seen and heard. She helps you leave behind resentment and anxiety and begin to:
*Understand why the mental load primarily falls on women and how it impacts sexual desire
*Share perspectives, expectations, ownership, and accountability
*Use actionable plans for divvying up tasks and teaching the next generation how to share the mental loadThrough research and stories based on real couples, A Better Share guides you out of the endless stress and resentment cycle and into a relationship where sharing is caring, having fun together is a priority, and great sex isn’t a thing of the past.

Two Equals One
$19.99Add to cartUncover the secrets to a thriving marriage. Focusing on reconciling differences and forging true intimacy, Two Equals One emphasizes the crucial roles of communication, understanding, and concerted team effort.

To lean in rather than let go. To give you a framework and path to discover a marriage equation of love, laughter, and longevity.
From tackling tough topics such as addiction and resentment to addressing the impact of neglecting spousal roles, Two Equals One is a comprehensive guide to strengthening and salvaging relationships, while offering practical challenges, prayers, and resources to actively engage couples.

Move from cussing and fussing to communicating and forgiving
Learn tools to have hard conversations that will improve your communication and connection in relationships
Find hope and healing in areas in your relationship where there is real hurt, broken trust, and rebuild your relationship together
Discover how two completely different people can accept, learn from, and leverage their differences to make a marriage made oneJimmy and Irene encourage couples to identify differences and navigate through them, providing guidance on conflict management and expectation setting.
