Publisher's summary

From the author of the internationally bestselling 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do series and preeminent psychotherapist, Amy Morin, comes a guide for couples looking to develop mental strength together and sustain happier and healthier relationships.

When psychotherapist Amy Morin first introduced the world to the concept of mental strength with her internationally bestselling book, 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do, she showed millions of people how to be the strongest, best version of themselves. Now, Morin turns her expert eye to how couples can work together to grow stronger and have better relationships. Relationships play a key role in mental strength, and partners have the ability to help one another build the mental muscle they need to reach their greatest potential—with hard work and the right tools.

With her signature framework, Morin identifies the 13 key mistakes couples should avoid to heal their relationships and develop their mental muscles. Providing resources, original research, and advice for couples looking to grow stronger together, Morin gives listeners life-changing steps they can do to improve their own mental strength and work better together as a team. Looking closely at modern-day issues, from social media to the COVID pandemic, 13 Things Mentally Strong Couples Don’t Do provides easy-to-implement solutions that can help listeners deal with the real-world problems that are distressing today’s couples. Listeners will learn how to accept, experience, and express love by implementing Morin’s concrete strategies to thrive as individuals as well as a team.

Each chapter features specific, effective mental strength strategies that can be practiced separate or apart to create positive change. Outlining how to proceed whether or not your partner is on board, Morin will give listeners conversation starters, troubleshooting strategies, patient stories, quizzes, and the latest research to develop a better understanding of how they contribute to their relationship and resolve problems as they arise. From managing conflict to maintaining healthy communication to addressing underlying issue, listeners will learn how to kick bad habits and become a resilient couple.

A necessary and powerful guide to healthy and secure relationships, 13 Things Mentally Strong Couples Don’t Do give partners the tools to work together to build mental strength, and a love that lasts.

Dear Listener,

What is the best way for someone to broach the subject of developing mental strength as a couple with their partner?
"Start by telling your partner why you want to develop mental strength. Explain what you hope to gain by doing so, such as the self-discipline you need to go to the gym consistently or some skills to allow you to better manage your emotions and communicate more effectively. Additionally, share how building mental strength will improve both you as an individual as well as improve your relationship. Then, ask your partner if building more mental strength might help them reach a goal as well. Show curiosity, listen without judgment, and provide words of encouragement. If your partner is interested in building mental strength together, discuss how you can support each other’s efforts. If your partner isn’t invested in building strength at the moment, don’t push. Instead, work on building your own mental muscles. There’s a good chance that the changes you make will inspire them to follow suit." – Amy Morin, writer of *13 Things Mentally Strong Couples *

Not helpful

Initially I was curious. Then it became too obvious and prescriptive. Too many questions. There are better books about the topic.
