Is your behavior accidentally destroying your marriage? In this video, Kimberly Beam Holmes reveals one of the top predictors of divorce—second only to affairs—that most people don't even realize they are doing.

Control is a silent relationship killer. You might think you are just trying to "help" your spouse, protect your family, or make sure things are done "the right way." But to your partner, it feels like intrusion, intimidation, and a lack of trust.

At Marriage Helper, we see thousands of couples in crisis, and control is one of the hardest hurdles to overcome—but it IS possible. In this video, Kimberly breaks down the psychology behind why good people become controlling, the 5 distinct ways control manifests in a marriage, and gives you a 5-question self-assessment quiz to see if you are guilty of these behaviors.

In this video, you will learn:

  • The Root Causes: Why fear, low self-esteem, and poor emotional regulation lead to controlling behavior.
  • The 5 Types of Control: Intrusion, Intimidation, Correction, Disempowerment, and Emotional Coercion.
  • The Self-Assessment: 5 honest questions to ask yourself right now.
  • The Solution: Practical steps to stop controlling your spouse and start saving your marriage.
