149: The State of Our Union – Dr. Corey Allan

Summary: State of Our Union Program Bringing personal life experience to the fore, Corey explains how the idea of ‘The State Of Our Union’ came about. On a weekly basis Corey and his wife used a text message reminder with 5 questions. This helped them escape work and family distractions and sit down with each other religiously to talk about their personal lives, sex and their emotions. They now have a program you can join that allows you to practice the same commitment with your partner in order to share meaningful conversations. Once a week you will get a text message with 5 questions to discuss with your partner. Once every quarter you receive a different set of questions in addition to the 5 weekly questions, which are broader and more long term. Corey encourages using a journal to write your answers down so that you can track your progress and keep in touch with each other on a more personal level. Approaching what you are both grateful for is an example of what the quarterly questions include. Corey emphasizes that it is not sex-focused and can be about anything we are grateful for. The program is built to bring people together and keep people in tune with each other. In the case of couples not having the time to fit these candid heart to hearts with each other, Corey expresses that it is absolutely possible to find a few minutes to connect and not making the time is already a reflection of where your relationship is and what you need to work on. Background Corey Allan (if you want to be formal it’s Dr. Corey Allan, but he’s usually pretty casual) is a husband, father, author, speaker, as well as a Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Ph.D. in Family Therapy. He and his wife Pam host a weekly podcast, Sexy Marriage Radio, where they help frame the conversation for couples to experience the best sex possible in their marriage. Corey has a private practice in McKinney, TX and is the founder of sexymarriage.net, an online resource aimed at helping marriages not just survive, but thrive. Pam is a CPA at a small firm in Frisco TX as well as a co-pilot with Corey’s work. To sum it up … Love is a process, not just a feeling. It produces action. Added to this, life is a choice (so is marriage). Therefore, we work to help people: Grow deeper Spiritually Keep it simple Be passionate Live in community with others Enjoy the ride Marriage is more about becoming a better human than it is about the two people being happy. So when you keep things simple, you are in a better position to experience more in marriage and life. “I don’t want people surviving their relationships, I want them thriving.” ~ Dr. Corey Allan Links and Resources: <a href="http://sexymarriage.net" rel="noopener">http://sexymarriage.net</a> <a href="http://sexymarriageradio.com" rel="noopener">http://sexymarriageradio.com</a> <a href="http://smrnation.com" rel="noopener">http://smrnation.com</a> More info: Book and New Course – <a href="https://sexwithoutstress.com" rel="noopener">https://sexwithoutstress.com</a> Podcast Website – <a href="https://www.intimacywithease.com/" rel="noopener">https://www.intimacywithease.com/</a> Sex Health Quiz – <a href="http://sexhealthquiz.com/" rel="noopener">http://sexhealthquiz.com/</a> Webinar: How to Make Sex Easy Without Making It Feel Like an Obligation – <a href="http://intimacywithease.com/training" rel="noopener">http://intimacywithease.com/training</a> Better Sex with Jessa Zimmerman <a href="https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/better-sex/" rel="noopener">https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/better-sex/</a> Source: <a href="https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/149-the-state-of-our-union-dr-corey-allan"></a>
