EPISODE 14: JANCEE DUNN

Bonus Episode: This episode is from an archive of Brooke's previous show, "The Naked Mom." Today, Brooke talks to best-selling author Jancee Dunn about her book, "How to Not Hate Your Husband After Kids." Jancee is the author of 5 books and her writing has been featured in "Rolling Stone," "Vogue," "O Magazine," "GQ" and "The New York Times." Jancee shares her own personal story about realizing after the birth of her child that she and her husband Tom had a lot of issues to deal with that they hadn't had before. The transition from a conflict-free pre-child relationship to a state of constant squabbling was a jarring wake-up call during what Jancee and her husband felt should be the happiest time in their lives. After talking to her friends, Jancee realized she was not alone. In an effort to get her marriage back on track and protect her daughter from growing up in a house filled with conflict, Jancee set out to find answers. Jancee talked to a wide variety of experts and shares what she learned from them and from talking through the issues with her husband. It's an amazing, personal and in-depth look at how husbands and wives can communicate better and be happier in their relationships. Listeners will walk away with tangible techniques – some as simple as just saying "thank you," – they can use to make their lives, parenthoods and marriages happier and more satisfying right away.
