Personal Note About the Authors
Nancy Wasson, Ph.D., and Lee Hefner are married and are passionate about their mission of helping couples in their marriage crisis turn their relationship around. They are the co-authors of the best-selling book Keep Your Marriage: What to Do When Your Spouse Says “I don’t love you anymore!"
What Gives Us Credibility in Saving Marriage?
NANCY: Both Lee and I have been where you probably are right now emotionally—hurt, angry, confused or frustrated with your spouse, and fearful.
Because of that, we feel a deep empathy for you if you’re going through a marital separation. And we want to help you avoid some of the mistakes that either we made or that I’ve seen many of my clients make over the past 20+ years of my marriage coaching practice.
LEE: I know that for Nancy and me, the key to our marriage’s success has not been one big turnaround, but a series of small turnarounds.
Whenever a marriage has conflict, the key is to immediately stop the downward slide and change the direction back toward harmony and emotional intimacy.
This is where Nancy and I are experts, and it’s how we help couples have good marriages.
Our respective stories and experiences of failing in our first marriages and finally of our current success qualifies us to understand both where you’re coming from and how to help you now.
