Publisher's summary

Proven principles - drawn from real-life failures and successes - for building and sustaining a loving, healthy relationship in today’s trying times, from celebrity life coach and motivational speaker Tony Gaskins, Jr.

After speaking out about how weak and insecure men control women in relationships in 2009 on several globally televised shows, Tony Gaskins launched his career as a life coach and relationship counselor. Since then, Gaskins, who has been a faithful and committed husband for more than a decade, has counseled thousands and inspired millions online, becoming one of America’s foremost experts on love and relationships.

Practical and accessible, and delivered in the empowering, empathetic tone his devoted following has come to love and trust, Make It Work walks you through a series of essential lessons on how to maintain a healthy and long-lasting relationship. Drawing inspiration from the Bible and from his own personal failures and successes, Gaskins offers a framework for how to recognize the right person to settle down with, how to set standards that promote loving relationships - and what to avoid in a successful union.

Make It Work arrives as a hopeful response to a culture where breakups and divorces are all too common, and it serves as a vital resource to help your relationship thrive today.

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME RELATIONSHIP ADVICE!!!

I have followed Tony on Facebook & YouTube for years. He is honest, sincere, spiritual and worth every penny. He breaks down how we interpret love from the people who taught us to how it births our future relationships and why they might fail. He teaches self love as this is the key to self control and eliminates the insecurities that form from a lack of it. This is a wonderful read! I reccomend it for myself so, I would definitely recommend it for anyone else.

God sent me this book!

I’ve been lying to myself as to WHY I’m still single and finally broke down and asked God to order my steps. The next day I watched Tony Gaskins Jr. on The Breakfast Club morning show and felt like he was speaking to my situation, so I had to learn more. I searched his work, then I found this book! I’m now in reflection & preparation mode to be a better woman to attract the man God has for me!🙏🏾
