After twenty-five years of marriage, Merrilee Boyack shares her
marriage secrets in this new talk on CD recorded in front of a live
audience. Merrilee offers practical tips for women who want to better
understand men (particularly their husbands) and build happier
marriages. She helps women understand how men think and teaches
practical communication skills and tools to help strengthen any
marriage.
"For the record, I reviewed this recording first to `protect
the guilty' (namely me) and make sure that I could yank anything that
even remotely hinted at my tortuous journey toward being a better
husband and father. Surprisingly (probably due to her amnesia), I
didn't have to exercise eminent domain or late-night stealth editing.
The honest truth is that Merrilee has a LOT of great ideas to share. If
you think her books are funny, inspirational, educational, and
motivational, you have no idea what it is like to actually live with
her. She is the real deal."--Steven Boyack, the author's husband.
