He’s the host of the new Rd 2 Romance Relationship Program which airs on the Dare 2 Dream Cable Network. Dr. Jacob holds a PhD in Psychology and is a graduate of Loma Linda University, where he also completed degrees in Counseling and Theology. Dr. Jacob conducts research on personality differences. His new scientific studies include the differences between the social and relational personality and how they affect choices in life. He recently concluded 5 years of research on how a partner’s personality unknowingly affects the relationship. His research includes, but is not limited to, studies in neuroscience, genetics, hormones and behavior. He conducts Family Life seminars, workshops and lectures across the U.S. and overseas, where he shares that personality difference and “NOT” spirituality or temperament, is often the main cause of marital unhappiness. His research has led to the first book on the topic and is titled, XY Theory®: How Personality Can Sabotage Dating and Jeopardize Your Marriage. He has also developed the XY Personality Test™ that measures relationship personality and predicts problems in a relationship or marriage long before they occur.
