In my 35 years of couples counseling, I’ve found that the biggest reason people experience turbulence in their relationships is because of jealousy and controlling behavior. The two are often paired because they both feed into each other in so many circumstances. It’s time for a few steps to take to relinquish your jealousy.


Whether I’m coaching a recent college graduate looking to get his life on track or a business woman in between jobs, I tell everyone the same thing: It’s all about connections, or as the saying goes, “It’s not what you know; it’s who you know.”
