About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Not much is harder than figuring out how to love your partner in all their messy humanness-and there's also not much that's more important.

At a time when toxic individualism is rending our society at every level, bestselling author and renowned marriage counsellor Terrence Real sees how it poisons intimate relationships in his therapy practice, where he works with couples on the brink of disaster. The good news: warmer, closer, more passionate relationships are possible if you have the right tools.

In Us, Real shares his new science-backed skillset to transform your relationship into one that's based on compassion, collaboration and closeness. If you and your partner are backed into separate corners of 'you' and 'me', or feel like you are living 'alone together', this book will show you the way back to 'us'.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A major stepping stone

I feel this book is and will continue to be of great help to me. I’ve been having some issues for a long time, with a lot more things than I was aware of until recently, and have had to do some serious work on myself to fix things both internally and with my partner of 8 years. This book has helped me on this journey to build vocabulary and understanding of my experiences and my resulting behaviours. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is questioning their marriage or struggling in their relationships with the people close to them.

Brilliant Psychologist

I hope that more people are exposed to this book. Incredibly powerful motives, having the potential to change our future relations to those greatly desired by all.
