What does a healthy relationship look like?

A good question, in theory, but expert couple's therapist Julie Menanno wants you to ask a slightly different one: what does a securely attached relationship feel like?

Moving from the way things look to others to the way they feel, this is a ground-breaking guide to secure attachment in adult relationships. Full of expert advice, Secure Love helps you explore how to increase your capacity for true intimacy. Designed to help you find and sustain love, this book will teach you how to dig into your childhood attachments, label your needs, stay connected during conflict and communicate from a place of vulnerability to build a relationship that lasts a lifetime.

Lots of important and valuable information and wisdom can be found in this book. I think I will go back to it to retain some of that information. However, the performance of the reader is irritating me. It sounds condesending and like she's chewing a gum every time a hypothetical sample conversation is being mentioned. Well, yeah, that would be my review. :)

The information is great but the delivery is not
