John Gray (@JohnGrayMarsVenus) wrote Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus, which sold over 50 million copies in 45 languages, and he’s been counseling couples for 45 years. So when he talks about why modern relationships keep breaking down, I listen.
This is our fourth conversation, and it’s the one where the biology finally clicked for me.
We get into why a woman’s stress hormones move in the opposite direction of men, why "happy wife, happy life" is real but "happy husband, happy life" isn’t a phrase for a reason, and the 10-minute tool that changed my life. He also explains what’s happening when a man hits road rage, why women seem to complain so much, and something critical women often misread about men.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right in relationships and it still isn’t clicking, start here.
