Synopsis:

• Do you and your partner fight about sex and money?
• Are you sexually or financially disempowered?
• Do you undervalue yourself or overvalue your partner?
• Do you want to cultivate authentic power in your relationship?

If you answered yes to these questions, then this book is your guide to self-empowerment!

No one wants to feel powerless, and yet we are destined to feel vulnerable and powerless particularly when we are in intimate relationships. The fact that power differentials exist is not in question; how couples learns to navigate them is. In unhealthy or abusive relationships sex and money are weapons of power for ultimate control and exploitation, and power struggles about sex and money can occur even in the healthiest of relationships—it’s the human condition. So how do individuals and couples learn to balance power in their relationship? The answer is different for each relationship, but all healthy relationships are built on empowered partners.

Battle of the Titans: Mastering the Forces of Sex, Money, and Power in Relationships is a compelling and constructive dive into modern-day power dynamics. Framed in Greek mythology, personal narrative and therapeutic intervention, author and therapist, Debra Kaplan provides essential tools and insights to:

• Successfully harness authentic power.
• Identify exploitation and engage healthy boundaries.
• Clarify the underlying attachment styles in relationships that contribute to over-valuation and under-valuation of self.
• Create healthy sexual and financial boundaries in relationship.
