Find your weakest link

Even as a clinical psychologist, I had many ‘ah ha’ moments reading this book. Couples and psychologists alike will find this guide for relationships both deeply fascinating and achievably helpful. Robertson and Sorekli’s book combines the intrigue and mild voyeurism of Esther Perel’s work, with the pragmatism and guidance of the Gottmans. Providing real-life examples of couples they’ve worked with, and the psychological theory behind each love link, they guide you through the 8 stages of improving your romantic relationship. In a world where the art of connection is dwindling, and dating is under unprecedented strain, I’ll certainly be recommending this book to anyone who wants to improve their EQ, break unhelpful patterns in their relationships and ultimately have a more fulfilling partnership.

I initially thought the 8 Love Links were for couples who were on the rocks. However after reading this book I quickly realised that it helps improve even good relationships. It changed my perspective on what it is to work together with your partner, setup your “campsite” and develop a truely deep and meaningful connection. I now understand my wife better and I’m better equiped to help her understand me better as well. This book is amazing for all couples and even singles to better prepare for a truely beautiful and fulfilling relationship with their partner.

I wish I had read this book 10 years ago. I have learnt so much about myself, my past relationships and my current one. Loved this book! Every person in a relationship, and even those looking to be in a relationship, should read this!

If you’re eager to transform your relationship and deepen your connection with yourself and your partner, “The 8 Love Links” by Helen Robertson and Shahn Sorekli is the perfect comprehensive guide.

A standout feature of this book is its focus on self-awareness as the foundation for a healthy relationship referred to as the “me in we” concept. It brilliantly demonstrates how understanding oneself is key to better understanding and loving your partner. This holistic approach ensures that the changes you make are lasting and deeply impactful.

“The 8 Love Links” is truly a masterclass in understanding and nurturing the complexities of romantic relationships. It is a must-read for anyone committed to cultivating a loving, resilient relationship.

The My Love Your Love app is such an engaging way to work on your relationship. The best part about it is that you can do it anywhere, anytime thanks to the convenience of the app in the palm of your hands. The modules are cleverly developed to support you and your partner to navigate your emotions and communicate more respectfully and clearly. My partner and I came into the experience feeling strong in our relationship, and we were surprised how much we were still able to gain from the app, helping us to understand our communication styles more. Big thumbs up for us!

This app exceeded expectations. What in theory might seem dull and boring was actually highly engaging and deeply satisfying. My partner and I decided to give it a red hot crack and noticed that as we progressed through exercises and chapters we found ourselves feeling comfortably vulnerable and communicating on a new level. Our relationship was very healthy to begin with, but there were still some key learnings uncovered through using My Love Your Love. I’d recommend this to couples of all kinds.

The videos and exercises are really informative and a helpful way to learn how to communicate better.

This app has been great for our relationships. We love the deep connections and let’s talk about sex questions. It just makes the whole conversation that much easier.
