       Transition 1: How can we make this work?: When the 
       honeymoon ends -- Struggling to do it all -- Achieving

       limits -- Exploring wider horizons -- Couples that work 
520    Finding fulfillment in both love and work isn't easy--but 
       it's possible. The majority of couples today are two-
       career couples. As anyone who's part of such a 
       relationship knows, this presents big challenges. Yet most
       advice for two-career couples fails because it treats the 
       challenges as a zero-sum game in which one partner's gain 
       is the other's loss. This pits partner against partner and
       frames solutions in the language of sacrifice and trade-
       offs. This book is different. In Couples That Work, INSEAD
       professor Jennifer Petriglieri shifts away from 
       conventional, one-size-fits-all solutions for two-career 
       couples and instead focuses on how couples can tackle and 
       resolve the challenges they will face throughout their 
       lives--together. She identifies three key phases of 
       exploration and personal growth in every couple's work-
       life journey, showing how couples must navigate these 
       together in order to strengthen their bond. Based on a 
       five-year research project including interviews with 
       couples from over thirty countries--from executives to 
       entrepreneurs and from twentysomething newlyweds to two-
       career grandparents--Couples That Work is filled with 
       vivid real-life stories as well as keen analytical 
       insights. There are also engaging exercises and activities
       designed to help couples develop their own unique answers 
       to that most pressing question: How can we successfully 
       combine love and work?
