Marriage Success: Recipe for Happiness or a Gamble?

Marriage Advice: Is Happiness a Recipe or a Roll of the Dice? A doctor and psychiatrist, Richard Wadsworth, challenges the common belief that successful marriages are simply a matter of luck. Wadsworth, who has been married for 19 years and has seven children, draws parallels between his experience in jiu-jitsu competitions and his marriage counseling practice. He explains that just as winning in jiu-jitsu requires mastering specific techniques, a fulfilling marriage needs a structured approach. "People approach marriage like they try to make cookies without a recipe," says Wadsworth. He highlights the importance of learning from experts and adopting proven strategies rather than relying on guesswork. Wadsworth's courses offer a structured method for building strong and happy relationships, emphasizing the importance of proactive planning and understanding.
