From couples therapist Dené Logan comes a new perspective on understanding our inner masculine and feminine energetics as the key to experiencing fulfillment in our partnerships.

Does something feel off about your intimate relationships? If you haven’t been able to pin down exactly what, you aren’t alone. While attempting to connect the dots of her own experience to the patterns she observes within the relationships of her clients, couples therapist Dené Logan came to a vital understanding in the search for relational fulfillment: the answer often lies in the inherent interplay of the masculine and feminine energy that everyone possesses.

Both masculine and feminine polarities are present in every person and relationship. When we’re out of touch with the energetics within ourselves and those around us, it can create an internal struggle and sense of disharmony in our partnerships. “Understanding these dynamics is the key to ending the unspoken war of the sexes that plays out far too often in our relationships,” Logan says. Thankfully, we have the power to work with these polarities, first within ourselves, and then within our relationships.

In Sovereign Love, Logan helps us understand how to integrate masculine and feminine energetics so we can move away from the codependent, transactional views of what relationships “should” be, toward an interdependent, mutually balanced state where both partners are present, self-aware, and strong in Self. Here you’ll discover:
• What energetics you’ve been operating from and why
• The polarities that are being created in your partnerships
• How to take personal responsibility for shifting your own energy to a more integrated place

Logan shares revelations and techniques to support you in experiencing the wholehearted, satiating kind of love that is rooted in self-awareness and interdependence. “By unpacking the historical, cultural, and highly individual reasons why we love the way we do,” she explains, “we can understand our motivations and consciously choose to love in a way that serves our growth, our values, and our personal sovereignty.”

I gained such clarity

I listened to this book obsessively. I’m waiting for the book version so I can begin again, take notes and highlight my way back to a healthy relationship with my husband.

I learned that what I have seen as my strength and independence is a defense against my woundedness from the past. This has put me in a leadership position in my marriage, which feels familiar to me, but I didn’t realize how much I resent it. What I want is to appreciate and admire my husband as the strong leader I know he can be, and to dare to be vulnerable enough to trust him to follow. I am transformed, now that I have this insight and a sense of where to go from here. I have hope.

If you have felt out of balance in your relationship, whether as a man or woman, hetero- or queer, it might have something to do with the theory, based in Carl Jung, laid out for you in this completely accessible book, full of real person examples, and beautifully presented by the author. I can’t wait to meet her in May!

Not Certain what to Expect, and Definitely not Disappointed!

This book is expertly read, and I can tell the author poured her heart & research into it. Awesome relationship guide.

Must listen!

I love the wisdom Dene shares on each of her social media post, each one is a nugget of wisdom. This book gave me the whole chicken of wisdom, to understand how the feminine and masculine interact in relationships with others and self. Total game changer on how I think about relationships dynamics. Enjoy!

Toni Morrison said A good book haunts! Dene succeeded!

This book left me in pieces. In a good way. It showed me that I have so much to unpack mentally and work on as person looking to get in right relationship with self and others. I plan to read it/listen again and again and again! Powerful!

This book is GOLD!

After several years of reading this genre of self help, and following leading voices in the life coaching sector, I can say that Miss Logan has an outstanding ability to analyze and articulate the issues impacting our ability to hold relationship with one another. I started with Audible, but I’ll be buying two hard copies - one for my reference and one to lend out.
