Can a wife single-handedly bring a boring or broken marriage back to life?

This updated and expanded edition of Laura Doyle's acclaimed The Empowered Wife features real-life success stories from empowered wives who have done just that—and provides a step-by-step guide to revitalising your own marriage.

Can a wife single-handedly bring a boring or broken marriage back to life? This improved and expanded edition of Laura Doyle's acclaimed First, Kill All the Marriage Counsellors features real-life success stories from empowered wives who have done just that—and provides a step-by-step guide to revitalising your own marriage.

Laura Doyle's marriage was in trouble, and couples counselling wasn't helping. On the brink of divorce, she decided to talk to women who'd been happily married for over a decade, and their advice stunned her. From it, she distilled Six Intimacy Skills—woman-centric practices that ended her overwhelm and resentment, restoring the playfulness and passion in her marriage.

Now an internationally recognised relationship coach, Doyle has shared her secrets with women around the globe, saving thousands of marriages with her fresh, revolutionary approach.

Practical and counter-intuitive, the Six Intimacy Skills are about focusing on your own desires and transforming your own life—not bending over backwards to transform your husband.

Incorporating these skills will empower you to:

  • Attract his attention like a magnet when you relax more and do less.
  • Receive affection not because you told him to make more of an effort, but because he naturally seeks you out.
  • Feel more like yourself—and like yourself more.

If you've been trying to "fix" your relationship and it's not working, maybe the problem was never you, or your husband, or even the two of you as a couple. Maybe the problem is that nobody ever taught you the skills you need to foster respect, tenderness, and consideration.

With humour and heart, The Empowered Wife shows you how to improve your relationship in ways you hadn't thought possible. You'll join a worldwide community of over 150,000 empowered wives who finally have the marriages they dreamed of when they said "I do."
