An essential set of tools and principles for healing your heart, finding love, and loving life.
Finding love can be hard. Being single can feel even harder. In Love Life, world-renowned coach and New York Times bestselling author Matthew Hussey provides a practical roadmap for letting go of past relationships, overcoming the fear of getting left behind, and finding the love we want.
Sometimes it feels like life and love are working against us. Just finding someone we like can be a struggle. Even when we do, we often find they’re not ready, or they want different things. Then there are the internal fears and anxieties that lead us to self-sabotage—that make us indulge the wrong behavior in others, hold back from expressing our needs for fear of losing someone, or overinvest in people and lose ourselves in the process. Love Life sheds light on these common patterns and how to overcome them, by showing us how to adopt new standards, elegantly communicate them, and develop the deepest levels of confidence that underpin them. Like many of us, Hussey has gone through major life changes over the past decade, and he opens up about his experiences, vulnerabilities, and mistakes.
Love Life is about doing love better. More than a book about romantic relationships, Love Life shows us how to take control of each of the major relationships in our lives: our relationship with others, our relationship with ourselves, and our relationship with life itself.
Our love lives have the power to elevate or eradicate the adjacent joy in our lives. Love Life sets you on the path to finding the love of your life, while deepening your love for life.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In 2013, rising young relationship coach Matthew Hussey published a book called Get the Guy that urged women to find the right man by becoming their best selves. Over a decade later, Hussey is no longer in his early 20s, and he’s had his own heart broken a few times. So Love Life is an older and wiser take on romance, but Hussey’s overall message is the same: People are in a better place to find love when they’re happy with themselves. (Oh, and his guidance now is geared toward both women and men.) There’s a practicality to Hussey's advice—whether you’re stuck in a relationship that’s going nowhere or you’re trying to get over someone who was never into you. Whether you’re actively looking for your special someone or not, this book can help make you a better person—and a better partner.
Customer Reviews
A new perspective on life and love
Thank you, Matthew, for your vulnerability and rawness in this book. I have a new outlook on the way I approach my daily life because of the frame of mind and tools you have provided in this wonderful work. I am currently trying to heal from the worst heartbreak I have ever experienced, and I am finishing this book feeling quite hopeful and optimistic despite my despair and heartache. You’re exactly right that feeling this depth of pain has opened my eyes to the agonizing experiences others around me have endured too. With that, I have also learned to have a new appreciation for the people who have shown that type of empathy to me, knowing they have been there too and get it. Reading this book has made me want to become a softer, kinder, and more patient human being because I never know the full stories of the people around me. I never know what they are going through on the deepest levels. What I do know is that I can treat others with compassion and kindness no matter what. I’m not sure if it’s my time to find love in a relationship with someone else, but I am sure it’s my time to love myself to the fullest. It’s my time to build myself back up, to shed my old self I no longer identify with. It’s my time to level up my life even more while remaining grateful for everything I have had so far. Thank you so much, Matthew. Your book came out at the perfect time in my life, and I have recommended it to many others already because I have seen it working in my life in both small and big ways. Love Life is the recipe book for learning to love your life as it is while also learning to foster the love life you want and deserve. Learning to be “happy enough” really is the key because if nothing is ever “good enough,” you’ll never be truly happy.
Love Life Reality Check
I love Matthew Hussey because he tells it as it is. His advice is always on point and is a real reality check for how I approach relationships. I’ve learned so from him over the years and excited he’s published another book for those who want to find love. He really is the real deal.

Why can I not access more than chapter one of this book? I paid full price
