Hey, everybody. Welcome to episode 245 of the virtual couch. I am your host, Tony Overbay. I am a licensed

0:05.9

marriage and family therapist and certified mindful habit coach. All of those things that I talk about

0:10.0

in previous episodes are still there. They're still in effect, but let's get right to today's

0:14.5

episode. And yes, please follow me on Instagram and Facebook and all the places and subscribe and

0:19.3

like and share and review and do all the things. that would be amazing. But today's episode is a little bit different, which is why I want to get right to it. If you've been listening to any of my episodes over the last few months, you have no doubt heard me talk a ton about my upcoming magnetic marriage course that I put together with my friend, an accomplished podcaster himself

0:38.5

and a very well-known, successful, positive, upbeat life coach named Preston Pugmeyer. He is host of

0:44.9

the Next Level Life podcast. And this is the first time that Preston and I have recorded a podcast

0:50.7

together. But we have spent hundreds, and that is, that is no exaggeration,

0:55.4

hundreds of hours together over the past several months creating the magnetic marriage course.

1:00.1

And this is my first foray into creating a major course. I have the free parenting course that I

1:06.1

firmly stand behind, but admittedly I went into that the first weekend that the pandemic shut the world down.

1:12.3

I just wanted to give people some hope with regard to parenting. I knew that they were going

1:15.1

to be shut in with all of their kids for, I mean, now we're going to probably hit a year before we

1:20.4

know it. But it's informational, the solid, but it's no magnetic marriage course. I will tell you that.

1:26.3

And I could not have done this course without Preston. He helps people create courses, a lot of courses, successful courses. And he went all in on this course, not just helping me create the course. But Preston and I created this course. And there is honestly the perfect mix of what I feel is my therapist clinical, a thousand

1:46.3

couples later in the chair experience with Preston's get stuff done. You need structure,

1:51.8

you need homework, accountability, how to create courses, how to run successful courses,

1:55.7

all of that. So I wanted to create something like this literally years ago. And I had tried to do so, but I know that it would not be a fraction of what this course

2:05.0

offers had I tried to do this on my own.

2:08.2

And I should just stop here right now, go right to the interview because we cover so much

2:12.1

about what the course will do for your marriage.

2:14.4

But let me just say that the timing of this episode is not purely by chance.
