Internet video sensations and podcast hosts Penn and Kim Holderness reveal how to argue better and emerge from conflicts feeling closer and more understood. They share their own experiences, including a memorable "bra fight" that escalated from a simple question about chicken wings to a serious argument. Many couples face similar conflicts that can quickly spiral out of control, leaving them feeling isolated and resentful. However, the Holdernesses, known for their humor and joy on social media, want to show the reality behind their seemingly perfect relationship. They address the misconceptions of being "#couplegoals" and share their ten most common Fight Fails, offering practical solutions to navigate these challenges. With insights from Pastor Chris Edmonston, they provide couples with scripts to initiate, continue, and conclude difficult conversations. Readers will learn valuable skills such as meta-communication, breaking free from secret contracts, and conducting a P&L (prayer and laughter) analysis on their marriage. By tackling the three D's—distraction, denial, and delay—and taking responsibility for their own issues while supporting their partner, couples can foster understanding and connection. The Holdernesses emphasize that while marriage can be messy and requires effort, it is ultimately worth fighting for.
