Chapter Overview

Description

“Have a New Husband by Friday” offers a simple, day-by-day approach to refreshing a marriage that has started to feel stuck. Rather than asking anyone to become a different person overnight, the book emphasizes practical shifts in attitude, communication, and respect—small changes that can create a noticeably different emotional climate at home.

Through themes that move from understanding differences, to learning family patterns, to improving communication and intimacy, Dr. Kevin Leman encourages couples to return to the basics that often get buried under routine, resentment, or exhaustion. The goal is a fair, mutual relationship where both partners feel valued—and where change is possible, while safety and boundaries are taken seriously.

Who Should Listen

  • People who feel their marriage has slipped into routine and want a structured, one-week reset focused on respect, communication, and reconnection.
  • Listeners who want practical, easy-to-try relational tools—especially around talking less, asking clearly, and reinforcing the positive.
  • Anyone reflecting on how childhood patterns and expectations shape adult relationships, and who wants to respond more thoughtfully rather than reactively.
