Robbins has done it again. The Power Talk series is well known for providing interesting insights by top authorities. Dr. Gray is well known for his unique perspectives on relationships. The combination is electric. This is three hours of pure insight into how men and women relate, and how to make the relationships you have into the relationships you want. As if that wasn't enough, these guys are hilarious. You will enjoy this tape, and you will learn from it. Buy it!

On Creating Extraordinary Relationships is a 3 hour tape series on how to make relationships work better through better communication, understanding and listening. The tapes talk about some basic differences between men and women and what to do about it. I had a lot of fun listening to it with my then girlfriend (now my wife!). We were laughing so hard because it was so funny yet so true! After listening to the tape we learned so much more about ourselves and each other. What makes it very valuable is Tony Robbins and John Gray cite so many examples and situations in our everyday life where conflicts arise and give practical insightful tips on how to improve the situation. Some of the words used also act as positive trigger devices that just by mention of the words during more challenging situations it makes the moment lighter. I love this so much I have to date bought 22 sets of this to give to friends! This is something I recommend highly!

This is more a recorded conversation than a 'book on cassette' but Anthony Robbins asks intelligent and probing questions to draw forth insights from John Gray. That they are friends only helps communicate the ideas more effectively and entertainingly. Couples preparing for marriage as well as couples who have been in committed relationships for a long time can benefit from the ideas and techniques discussed. Even if you don't agree with everything presented (and the two mention that they are speaking in broad strokes and generalities) if you can find one new idea or a new way to understand an old idea, that helps you and your partner improve your relationship - isn't it worth it?

I have a cassette player in my car, but for those who are looking for it on CD this item. The content is identical, I've listened to it in both forms (purchasing the CDs as gifts for friends - I know first hand):

Power Talk John Gray PH D Interview [Audiobook] [Audio CD] Power Talk John Gray PH D Interview

The folks who read the above remark about "wishing it were available on CD" will be happy to hear this.

I have given this many times to couples, young and old. I am sad that it isn't being published in CD. It is a conversation between the two and while it is helping men and women understand each other, it is VERY funny and entertaining.
