Joe Dillon — Every Marriage Is a Negotiation
Most couples know
how to argue.
Few know how to negotiate.
Twenty years of divorce mediation. Over a thousand couples. One pattern, every time: it was never about the money, the kids, or who forgot to empty the dishwasher. It was about conversations that never happened — or happened badly. POWER UP fixes that.

Infinite fewer nights on the couch.
"A reluctant yes is more expensive than an honest no."
One of Joe's rules. There are a lot more where that came from.
