The key problem in many long-term relationships, is the loss of one′s own voice. Despite decades of good advice about communicating with clarity, timing and tact, women and men find that their biggest complaints in marriage and other intimate relationships are that they are not being heard, that they cannot affect the other person, that fights go nowhere, that conflict brings only pain. Although these relationships offer the greatest possibilities for knowing the other person and being known, they are also fertile ground for frustration when it comes to articulating a true self. Much as she did in The Mother Dance, Lerner will approach this rich subject with tales from her personal life and clinical work, inspiring and teaching readers to speak their own truths to the most important people in their lives.
