Synopsis

Discover the secret to happy relationships.Relationships are rife with disappointment—but they are also the primary source of personal happiness. So it is no surprise that the number one question Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott hear over and over is, What’s the single most important thing you can do for your relationships?        After over twenty-five years of researching, writing, and speaking on this subject, in Healthy Me, Healthy Us the Parrotts have whittled down their answer to the truth contained in this single sentence: if you try to build intimacy with another person before you have gotten whole on your own, all your relationships become an attempt to complete yourself. Relationship skills, tips, and tactics? Sure. They have their place. But meaningful relationships—the kind we all long for—grow from something deeper, something stronger, something that has more to do with being than doing.
