How to adjust to married life, build a strong foundation, and survive your first year of marriage - EVEN if you don’t know where to start.
Do you feel overwhelmed and completely unprepared for marriage? Are you worried about failing in your marriage, second-guessing your decision to even get married, or considering a divorce?
Do you want to have the best marriage you possibly can, but not sure where to start?
You are not alone.
It is easy to feel like you are the only newlywed struggling with married life; the frustrations, sadness, hopelessness, silent treatment, name calling, anxiety, disagreements, anger, disappointments, coping with new behavior discoveries, wondering if this is what marriage is supposed to be like, etc.
We know how you feel because we experienced these struggles after getting married too.
We have also listened to great married couples share their first year of marriage struggles on our podcast, The First Year Marriage Show, and countless others. So, we understand the problems you are facing and want to help you have a better marriage.
To be honest, the first year of marriage is the hardest year for most married couples. However, you can avoid the marriage problems newlyweds face every single day by reading this guide for newlyweds and engaged couples today.
We strongly believe this book will change your marriage.
Because the lessons come from our own first-hand experience and gleaned knowledge. We share our struggles and how we overcame adversity to build a strong foundation for the healthy, happy, and fulfilling marriage we have today.
In this First Year of Marriage book, you will learn:
1. How to transform your mindset from I into We.
2. How to build a safe environment for your marriage, so you can express your feelings and opinions without feeling judged.
3. Our simple and proven communication strategies that have helped many couples to communicate better.
4. Get a better idea of what is at the root of the issues troubling your marriage, and how to fix it.
5. The glue that holds your marriage together and what we did after one of us changed our faith.
6. How to be independent and interdependent without losing your identity.
7. How to connect and grow together as a couple. Plus the tools you need to strengthen and grow your marriage to its fullest potential.
8. Why it is important to create a vision for your marriage, and the four steps we used to create a vision our marriage.
9. Why your first year of marriage is critical to the success of your marriage.
And much more.

Cracking the communication code between husband and wife involves understanding one thing: that unconditional respect is as powerful for him as unconditional love is for her. It's the secret to marriage that every couple seeks, and yet few couples ever find. While both men and women deserve both love and respect, in the midst of conflict the driving need for a woman is love and the driving need for a man is respect. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy. Based on over three decades of counseling, as well as scientific and biblical research, Love and Respect is for anyone.

As a professor of psychology at the University of Washington and the founder and director of the Seattle Marital and Family Institute, he has studied the habits of married couples in unprecedented detail over the course of many years. His findings, and his heavily attended workshops, have already turned around thousands of faltering marriages.

In Boundaries in Marriage, Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend, counselors and authors of the New York Times bestseller Boundaries, teach us that healthy boundaries are the property lines that define and protect you and your spouse as individuals. Once you have them in place, a good marriage can become better, and a less-than-satisfying one can even be saved.

In his classic guide to understanding the opposite sex, Dr. John Gray provides a practical and proven way for men and women to improve their communication and relationships by acknowledging the differences between them. Once upon a time Martians and Venusians met, fell in love, and had happy relationships together because they respected and accepted their differences. Then they came to Earth and amnesia set in: They forgot they were from different planets.

Marriage is wonderful. You meet the right person that you never want to be without, and you vow to spend the rest of your life with them. It can seem like sunshine and roses, but then reality hits. You start to realize you are both different people, and as such, you may have disagreements. Maybe you both have very busy jobs that keep you apart for longer than you’d like. Suddenly you’re a few years in, and it’s like you’re married to a very different person. But are they really all that different, or has the new worn off of the relationship?

A weak overview
As someone with a background in nursing and mental health, there was no new information or concepts here. I suppose if you have NEVER considered what it means to be in a long term legal commitment with another person, it's a good idea to read something, but I'm not sure this is the best. They just reference all the other relationship experts out there.
