Radio Talk Show Host Tim Kellis Engages TransMedia to Circulate His Prescription for 'Happy Relationships'
Advises Couples in his New Book, Equality: The Quest for the Happy Marriage.
Former Wall Street Analyst is 'Long' on Marriages, but 'Shorts' Therapists
3/24/2008
For the one out of every two couples contemplating divorce today, author Tim Kellis has some "common sense" advice for achieving a happy marriage that he wants TransMedia Group to publicize across America.
His sage advice is available in his new book, Equality: The Quest for the Happy Marriage, at www.happymarriages.comand on his radio show "Men on Marriage" airing in South Florida 6-7 PM Thursdays on Clear Channel 1230 AM, said TransMedia Group Senior Vice President Kim Morgan.
"Kellis believes couples can work through their marital problems if they'll simply apply common sense and listen to what Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said about arguments and anger," said Morgan, a specialist in book publicity.
"Arguments and anger only force a response of more arguments and anger," she said, quoting Dr. King, who added "Hate begets hate, violence begets violence; toughness begets greater toughness." According to Kellis, couples must meet the forces of hate (fear, insecurity and anxiety) with the power of love," she said.
Like Dr. King, Kellis has a dream, Morgan said. Kellis believes that unlike most therapists today, he has solutions for quarreling couples that will help to lower the soaring 50% divorce rate. He believes that if couples read his book, the divorce rate will one day recede just as Dr. King had a dream that racial injustice would "recede on the high plane of dignity and discipline." "If couples adopted Kellis' advice, happy marriages would ring from every mountainside," she said. "This will be one of our main messages," said Morgan.
Kellis believes most therapists today are failing to make a dent in the divorce rate. "All that most therapists do today is perform CPR on marriages close to heart attacks. Unfortunately, marital therapists spend their professional careers engulfed in negative relationships so they are simply too close to the problems to see what solution is needed."
Kellis, a renowned Wall Street analyst, brings science and logic to the relationship equation. He takes readers on a journey through history to help them discover more about themselves, and new ways to build and keep relationships positive and loving lifelong.
