Description

Does your relationship feel more like a business arrangement than a love story?

You're not alone - and it doesn't have to stay that way.

Psychotherapist Carmel Wynne has spent over twenty years helping couples who love each other but have somehow stopped connecting. In Get Real, she shows you exactly why intimacy fades in long-term relationships - and how to get it back, one honest conversation at a time.

This is the book for you if:

  • The spark has gone and you're not sure how to reignite it
  • You feel like housemates rather than partners
  • Small resentments have built up into a wall of silence
  • You want to fix things, but don't know where to start

Through real stories, practical tools, and clear guidance on the communication patterns that make or break relationships, Get Real gives you everything you need to stop drifting and start reconnecting - without blame, without jargon, and without waiting for the other person to go first.

Your relationship deserves better than 'fine'. This is where you start.

Carmel Wynne is an expert in relationship dynamics and communication, drawing on extensive training in Spirituality, Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Emotional Intelligence, and Life Coaching. With over two decades of experience, she has identified that most relationship challenges stem from unrecognised miscommunication. Wynne has dedicated her career to sharing her insights through facilitated seminars and retreats, while her expertise has been featured in numerous newspaper and magazine publications. A respected voice in her field, she has given multiple media interviews focused on family relationships, sexuality, and effective communication techniques. Her books include Relationships and Sexuality and Sex and Young People (both Mercier Press) and Coaching: The Key To Unlocking Your Potential (Beache Key Publications).

Advance Praise

'one of the most honest, practical and deeply relatable discussions about modern relationships you're likely to hear.' - The Claire Byrne Show

'The most reassuring message from the interview - and from Get Real - is that it's never too late to reconnect. Carmel herself speaks with the wisdom of lived experience. "I sometimes shock friends when I say I was married three times," she told Claire with a laugh, "because it was to the same man." Her point? Relationships change. The arrival of children, the teenage years, becoming a couple again - each phase is effectively a new relationship that needs to be navigated with openness and honesty.

Rekindling those good memories, leaving little notes of appreciation, remembering the times that were brilliant - these are, as Carmel puts it, "the small things that make the difference that makes the difference.- The Claire Byrne Show
