Love isn’t always clean, calm, or clear. In Messy Love, Jay Shetty invites us behind closed doors into coaching sessions with three couples navigating the complicated terrain of modern relationships. You’ll witness raw moments of vulnerability as they work through resentment, broken trust, and generational patterns–with no script, no filters, and no certainty of the outcome.

Through these intimate sessions, Jay shares tools you can use to:

- Communicate with clarity and compassion
- Break painful cycles of blame and withdrawal
- Create emotional safety and rebuild trust
- Turn daily moments into rituals of appreciation

This isn’t about “perfect” love, it’s about practiced love. About learning that every argument, every silence, every small act of care can become a doorway to deeper connection.

Building on the principles shared through his bestselling books and viral talks, Messy Love represents a new evolution for Jay. His typical insightful commentary is on full display, but in these unscripted sessions, he steps out of his usual role as interviewer to face the unexpected alongside the couples, delivering wisdom and guidance in the moment as their journeys unfold.

Whether you’re single, dating, partnered, or healing, Jay’s new Audible Original promises to pull you in and give you tools that can spark powerful transformation.

Note: If you or someone you love is struggling with violence in a relationship, you can find resources at creative-interventions.org and thehotline.org.

Jay is definitely has such a great vibe and calming voice that makes him a perfect coach. Though I don’t have any issues in my current relationship I wanted to read this to get inside of how I can continue to better communicate. Jay is right a lot of of us have not learned how to effectively express ourselves and communicate and just these are skills and tools. We need to practice so it was very insightful and I enjoyed listening to it. Props to the couples that were very vulnerable, and that people get an insight into their story and background around how they can use some of these tools. I’m sure that they will be a lot of other couples that are in the same situation that they can potentially assist.

Really enjoyed this!

As usual, Jay Shetty delivers. His insights are thoughtful, practical, and helpful when it comes to improving communication. I saw pieces of myself in all three couples, which made it relatable and real. After 25 years of marriage, I’ll be using several of Jay’s tips to communicate better. Thank you Jay, and thank you Audible. Another home run.
