Book Synopsis



Break unhealthy patterns, set boundaries, and resolve conflicts with your mother-in-law, for a stronger marriage and a happier life

You don't just marry your spouse, you marry their family--and dealing with your in-laws isn't always easy. Women in particular often find themselves trapped in a toxic cycle with their mothers-in-law, doomed to feel like either a victim or a villain no matter what they do. In this indispensable resource, clinical psychologist and couples therapist Dr. Tracy Dalgleish helps women step outside the victim/villain binary and forge a healthy relationship with their mother-in-law that aligns with and prioritizes their marriage and overall well-being. Using Dr. Tracy's tried-and-true, five-step VAULT method, readers will learn the type of MIL they have, help develop mutual respect for boundaries, and most of all, feel like they're on the same team, with their partner and with the larger family. Reclaim your power, strengthen your relationship, and solve your in-law problems once and for all with You, Your Husband, and His Mother.
