Two therapists analyze their own relationship to help untangle the common and frustrating barriers many individuals face on the road to a happy, loving, rewarding partnership.Many of the clients who end up in our respective therapist offices thought they were doing relationships right—avoiding the white picket fence, focusing on careers and experiences over babies and legally-binding documents, choosing someone after they “found themselves” first. However, like clockwork, around their early to mid-thirties, these clients show up at our door. Why? For the first time, they realize that they dislike their relationship and are frustrated by their partner but know that another break-up won’t fix things. They recognize a pattern of relationship misery that has them finally looking in the mirror asking, how do you make a relationship last?It took us many relationships, our own inner self journey (which we’re still on), therapy, therapy school, and helping thousands of people with their relationships, to learn to have better ones ourselves. Vanessa woke up at 31, after ending an engagement and moving to Los Angeles. John thought he woke up at 35 after his divorce. But he didn’t truly wake up until he was pushing 40. In It’s Not Me, It’s You, John and Vanessa dissect their own relationship to help readers figure out theirs: what their relationships were like in the past, what traumas they carried into the new relationship, and how they work on growing together to foster a healthy and long-term bond.The surprising truth is falling in love is more about you than your partner. It’s more about challenge and growth than comfort and ease, and roots don’t grow from wishful thinking—they grow in the soil of communication, curiosity, patience, and understanding.It’s Not Me, It’s You is for anyone looking for real advice on relationships that takes both sides into account and discusses relationships with the honesty and clarity we all need.

All mothers experience a massive identity shift, but as a culture, we’ve lost touch with the myths, stories, and ancestral knowledge that once guided us through this ego explosion. As a depth psychotherapist and new mom, Vanessa Bennett has spent countless hours with female clients, couples, and herself experiencing the struggle and dissolution of Self that comes through the initiation into motherhood. By applying the principles of depth psychology, she’s found the key to disrupting the “getting through” mentality of motherhood.Depth psychology explores the human psyche’s need to understand its place in the collective and create a differentiated sense of Self, and it’s through this lens that The Motherhood Myth helps us reclaim our sovereignty and find the larger purpose of parenting and partnership. “By reacquainting ourselves with myths and feminine forces like Demeter and Baba Yaga, those whose traits and stories empower and guide us to understand and reclaim aspects of ourselves that we have lost touch with, lay dormant, or have been purposely cut off by society, we can finally navigate and integrate this tumultuous transition,” says Bennett.Throughout this guide, Bennett offers practical tools to help us discover and embody an unshakable sense of Self. She also provides skills and scripts to increase capacity for conflict, vulnerability, and discomfort.
