Grounded in two decades of original research and work with couples from around the world, Love by Design introduces a groundbreaking new foundation for love: The Emergent Love Model. As Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh knows, successful partnerships do not thrive on love, at least as we know it. Instead of chasing our butterflies, we need to cultivate six core relational ingredients that make it possible for love to emerge:
·Attraction: What do you like and value about each other?
·Respect: How do you keep each other’s needs and priorities in mind?
·Trust: Do you know that you will show up for each other consistently?
·Compassion: Can you honor the other’s emotional experience without making it about you?
·Shared vision: Where are you committed to going together?
·Loving behaviors: How do you show your partner they’re special to you?
Offering dozens of exercises and reflection prompts, this groundbreaking book gives readers a new foundation for a thriving, lasting coupledom.
