Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Fight Less, Love More
Laurie Puhn · 2012
75/100
👍 Worth It
Laurie Puhn's Harvard mediation background gives the five-minute communication strategies real grounding, and the sample scripts make this immediately usable rather than theoretical. Publishers Weekly gave it a Rave Review and the John Gray and Harville Hendrix endorsements are meaningful in this category. No faith dimension here — this is secular couples communication.
