Summary

Many of us spend hours in the gym, or reading books on personal growth, or at mindfulness retreats working on getting stronger and healthier physically and emotionally. Then, when it comes to working on our relationships, we HOPE that our feelings about our romantic partner will magically freeze in that exciting cocoon of the first year we’re together. Suzann Pileggi, co-author of "Happy Together: Using the Science of Positive Psychology to Build Love that Lasts," shares what it takes to really grow and deepen love. She provides insights on the all-important connection between our overall happiness and our most important relationships. Check out Suzann's website at www.buildhappytogether.com.
