Nate Klemp, PhD, and Kaley Klemp

a new model for a happier, stronger relationship

The Klemp's work as mindfulness and leadership experts often fell to the wayside when they came home in the evening, only to end up fighting about fairness in their marriage. They believed in a model where each partner contributed equally and fairness ruled, but, in reality, they were finding that balance near impossible to achieve. They developed the idea of the 80/80 marriage, a new model for balancing career, family, and love, one that pushes couples beyond the limited idea of "fairness" toward a new model grounded on radical generosity and shared success. Their book provides practical, powerful solutions to transform your relationship and open up space for greater love and connection. -- adapted from jacket
