The way John listen to his wife is just a pure gold. Massive respect for someone like that.

[@Thelittleclipstore]

Yes he does but she doesn’t . Their chemistry feels off. Anyone else sense that? Watch how little attention she pays to him

[@QCDoggies]

The Gottmans never cease to fascinate and inform. Living legends!

[@letamorgan6819]

I notice that they lean into each other with ease and acceptance.. great modeling...

[@susanmichel4814]

Very interesting conversation about the importance of true connection! Also, interesting statistics about why relationships fall apart. I'm realizing how important it is not only to be truly present with my partner, but how important it is to be truly present with myself. Thank you for your insightful questions and commentary Jason!

Einen gutes Bespiel für eine lange und glückliche Ehe ! Liebe Grüße aus Germany 💑

[@AnnPorterCourtTherapist]

Discussion about their book, The Love Prescription -- great information!

[@kristendreamy]

This is such a fantastic conversation thank you! ✨🤍

[@nancyhynes804]

Quitè a wonderful conversation with John & Julie Gottman. I've been wishing for more touch in the relationship...now I will ask for it and explain why! And...yes, an Irish family. I had no idea I might be dealing with that trauma from time of The Troubles, 3 generations ago.Thank you very much.

[@helenduboviebrown3847]

I have just got the card decks Thank you very much for these.

[@madamecurious]

4:21 Touch is essential

[@safespacewithshay9324]

I enjoyed this insightful conversation

[@pfjombygh7786]

One of the best intervieuws of the Gottmann´s, allthough all of them are very helpful

[@sallybyrd3712]

Interesting discussion about generational trauma affects present day relationships because it has been hidden away by the family and not talked about.

[@abart2056]

I just downloaded the cards but I don't see anything that addresses older relationships for people starting over as a widow, widower or divorced after 50 - 60yr olds?

[@taniapenafielbermudez1602]

❤the Gottmans are the best

[@Rosebuddz_Revenge]

Thank you🙏🏿

[@katherineloveclay]

Thank You ♥️

[@robertcarmody3072]

What Julie says is great. I just would like her to let John say more. He barely gets a look in.

[@elizabethburch4338]

Very worthwhile information. Visual setup needs improvement...they look so uncomfortable bending down into the camera. Wonderful people and their content is excellent. Constructive criticism of the setup only. Not important, only they really do look uncomfortable.

[@grafxgrl8030]

Did you add the link to the card decks? I don’t see it.

[@garyzornow484]

Should we go on dates now that we are married? We haven't been on a date for 16 years except for funerals and weddings.

[@madamecurious]
