About the Book

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. 

Critical Praise

“Vulnerable, honest, and witty, this book is my number one recommendation for anyone looking for love. Matthew’s unique voice is one I return to again and again for both my confidence and my love life, and this book is perfect for anyone looking for actionable wisdom and a path to reconnecting with themselves. Love Life is a gift we all deserve!”  — Drew Barrymore, actor, talk show host, writer, producer, business owner, and mom

“Matthew has written an insightful and practical guide to more compassionately understanding the deeper traumas that our relationships often reveal. Love Life can help each of us build a more fulfilling relationship with ourselves and all those around us.” — Dr. Nicole Lepera, author of number one New York Times bestselling books How to Do the Work and How to Be the Love You Seek

“Whether you’re struggling with negative dating patterns, healing from heartbreak, or looking to create lasting confidence, this book is a must-read. It’s an essential guide not just for those looking for love, but also for those who want to find happiness even while on the search for it.” — Mel Robbins, host of the award-winning The Mel Robbins Podcast

“Matthew Hussey has written THE relationship book for everyone—searching, single, committed, or heartbroken! He has taken the antiquated “rules” and elevated the quest for relationships into a quest for self. This book is not a simplistic recipe for finding love, but an authentic road map for being accountable to ourselves. Follow the guidance in this book, and you will have the tools to steer clear of unhealthy relationships, squelch those voices that tell you that you are not enough, give yourself permission to speak your truth, and find the magic within you.” — Ramani Durvasula, PhD, clinical psychologist, author of It’s Not You, and Professor Emerita of Psychology at Cal State LA
