Relationships are tricky, especially for overthinkers. We often think our partners need to change in order for us to have a happier, more fulfilling relationship. However, my guest this week, my friend and colleague Maggie Reyes, has a different perspective to share on how you can create a 5-star marriage by working on yourself as an individual, cleaning up your side of the street.

Maggie Reyes is a Master Certified Life Coach and modern marriage mentor. She specializes in helping driven, ambitious people create their best marriages without waiting for their partners to change, or undertaking more work in their lives. In her work, Maggie uses principles from positive psychology, cognitive science, and simple coaching tools you can learn and apply instantly.
