5 Keys to a ScreamFree Marriage


With Hal Runkel, the New York Times bestselling author of ScreamFree Parenting: Raising Your Kids by Keeping Your Cool and ScreamFree Marriage: Calming Down, Growing Up and Getting Closer

Every Couple goes through conflict.
Not every couple grows through it.
Be one of the few.

In this program you will learn:

• The formula that will lead to a ScreamFree Marriage
• How to Authentically Represent Yourself to your spouse
• How to navigate the many “fires” of marriage
• Why Intimacy Always Begins with an “I”
• And lastly, how a ScreamFree Marriage leads to
Scream-Filled Sex!

This is not about fixing your communication, improving
your compatibility, or helping you and your spouse meet
each other’s needs. It’s not a step-by-step program for
training your spouse, nor is it a recipe for a
conflict-free relationship.

No, your marriage is far too important for any of that.
It is the central relationship of your life, and it
deserves to be addressed with the truth. And the truth
is: marriage is difficult. And it is naturally filled
with conflict. It’s actually designed to be this way.
What you need is not some typical program to help you
avoid this conflict; you need a way to actually Calm
Down, Grow Up and Get Closer to your spouse through it.

That’s the premise, and the promise, of ScreamFree
Marriage. Here you will find yourself challenging your
previous notions about what your marriage should be and
learning to appreciate all that it is right now, and
all that it could be in the very near future.

If you want a comfortable relationship without conflict
or challenge, choose another marriage program. But if
you want an honest, intimate relationship that turns
your common conflicts into a deeper, lifelong
connection, then this may be just what you’re looking
for.

Good Husband, Great Marriage: Finding the Good Husband in the Man You Married

with Robert and Jane Alter

After thirty-seven years of marriage and almost that many as therapists and marriage counselors, Robert and Jane Alter have concluded that in many cases men and women are not equally responsible for the problems in marriages.

Their experience suggests that mostly it’s the men who cause the disconnection. The wives always have some work to do on themselves, and sometimes a lot of work, but when it comes to knowing how to really be in relationship, how to have true connection and true intimacy in a marriage, the men are a piece of work.

Jane and Robert have also seen that there are many great men in this world who deep in their hearts want to be great husbands to their wives, and some have gotten off to a great start, but others have no idea, or a bunch of wrong ideas, about how to do that, and need some serious help.

Robert’s book, Good Husband, Great Marriage: Finding the Good Husband…in the Man You Married, and the Alters’ work, which they call the “good husband work,” is the help they provide.

In this program you learn:

• The definition of a good husband

• The five big lies men tell themselves to keep from changing

• The one-way street of change a man has to walk down in his marriage before it becomes a two-way street

• What women have to teach men about connection, relationship, and great marriage

• The wife’s role in helping her husband become a good husband

• How to get a guy to do the good husband work

How to Improve Your Marriage Without Talking About It

with Steven Stosny, Ph.D.

Men are right. The “relationship talk” does not help. In this program Dr. Steven Stosny reveals the stunning truth about marital happiness:

  • Love is not about better communication. It’s about connection.
  • You’ll never get a closer relationship with your man by talking to him like you talk to one of your girlfriends.
  • Male emotions are like women’s sexuality: you can’t be too direct too quickly.

There are four ways to connect with a man:

  1. Touch
  2. Activity
  3. Sex
  4. Routines

Men want closer marriages just as much as women do, but not if they have to act like a woman. Talking makes women move closer; it makes men move away.

The secret of the silent male is this: his wife supplies the meaning in his life.

In this program you learn:

  • The same vulnerabilities that bring us together tear us apart
  • Why we fight
  • The worst thing a woman does to a man
  • The worst thing a man does to a woman
  • The Power Love Formula: 4 3/4 minutes a day to a powerful relationship
