The Real Reason Relationships Fail | Abby Medcalf | TEDxOneonta

Nearly every couple Abby meets tells her this one concept is a complete game-changer. After just one session, they’re able to get rid of their habit of keeping score and, instead, adopt a new mindset of seeing themselves as a shared, collaborative resource. This shift in perspective results in a deeper connection and a happier, more fulfilled relationship (even if their partner won’t do a thing). Abby Medcalf is a psychologist, author and speaker. She has spent the last 30 years helping thousands of people create lasting change in their relationships, in a short amount of time, by applying her background in business and psychology. She is also the Best Selling Author of "Be Happily Married, Even if Your Partner Won't Do A Thing" and host of the 5-star rated "Relationships Made Easy" podcast. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
