Built to Last: The Surprising Secrets of Happy Couples

ParentEd Talks Replay

 

How do couples zest up their relationship in a modern egalitarian partnership? 

In this Feb. 7 ParentEd Talks webinar, Pepper Schwartz, Ph.D., shared how couples can maintain love and passion in what she has termed a “peer marriage.” Drawing on more than 40 years of research in the fields of intimacy and sexuality, she shared what makes a happy couple, and depicted the profound intimacy, mutual respect and deep friendship that can be achieved in a relationship between equals.
