Publisher's summary

For years, Nick Pavlidis felt stuck.

He worked hard, believing he was doing what was best for his family. Over the years, the combination of long hours, unpredictable schedules, and a growing family took its toll.

Nick tried everything he could think of to improve his marriage, but nothing worked - including nights on that old couch. Nick soon realized he was not only the problem in the relationship, but also the solution.

In Confessions of a Terrible Husband: Lessons Learned from a Lumpy Couch, Nick takes you inside the mind (and house) of a husband who thought he knew it all.

Nick's story is honest, funny, and hopeful. Both husbands and wives will enjoy the process he undertook to become a more loving and engaged husband and father - a process you can explore to grow your relationship, too, no matter how great it already is.

I highy reccomend this book.

If there is anyone out there who doesn't need a marriage tune-up, I would love to meet them. For everyone else in the world, this book gives a candid look into how Nick identified some problems areas in his marriage as well as the ways he redirected his behavior to shift the focus off of himself and onto his wife. Nick's writing style is humorous, intellegent and dead on track. I could see myself in some of his problem areas. Thank you Nick for your honesty and transparency. Buy this book! I will be listening many more times

A Good Short Listen - Female Review

So I picked this book to try to see into a man's perspective on relationships and what a man would recommend to another man. I think the Author Nick gives a lot of good feedback on being hardworking and successful but, also on how to balance family life. Which as a female is what I am seeking in my relationship.

Every husband should get this book!

A quick listen full of personal insight that many husbands can either relate to or learn to avoid. Nick makes the listen enjoyable dosed with occasional humor from his own errors in marriage. Pick up your copy today, cannot wait for the next edition of the lumpy couch story.
