Ten Days And Counting: Recent Episodes
Lee & Stephen Preston
Hosted by a couple who met online and got married in ten days, the Ten Days And Counting Podcast offers advice on a variety of topics, but specifically those topics that are unique to couples who are in a second or third marriage, and who may also now be part of a blended family.
Dealing with a divorce happens in stages, much like dealing with major instances of grief. And you may experience these stages without even recognizing them. The ultimate goal is to achieve acceptance of the situation in order to begin life anew and with a positive outlook.
In this week's episode of our relationship advice podcast, we talk about these stages. We also open up about our own marriage and how at one point we were very close to becoming a part of that statistic. As we look back on that time in our relationship, it's definitely nice that we can look back on it with a little bit of a sense of humor.

We understand the perils of disciplining step-children. With five children between us, this was something that was an afterthought to our marriage, and had to be worked out not long after saying, "I do."
In this week's episode of our relationship advice podcast, we share some of the hazards that come with discipline and step-children; and even biological parents who are apathetic when it comes to a disrespectful biological child. You'll hear us talk about how we handled discipline in our blended family, and what were the reasons behind the decisions we made.

As children grow up, their desire to spend time with parents and family wains and is replaced with time with friends and other events. This can be an even harder transition for divorced parents, especially for the non-custodial parent. In this week's episode, we talk about how we are handling this with our own children and share some of the things you can do to approach this transition in the right frame of mind.
This week we launch Episode 7: Low Self-esteem (And Manipulation) & Losing A Job.
First up is a request we received from a young girlfriend who is having trouble dealing with the presence of her (what we have assessed as manipulative) boyfriend's ex-girlfriend. And then we share our own experience with one of us unexpectedly losing a job and how that can affect a relationship if you let it.
We're back after a week off and trying to regroup. We're using new recording software and got new intro/outro music. And in this week's episode, we talk about a girlfriend who's running out of patience and wants to be married, and a guy who can't seem to find a close friend.
This week, we finish out our four-part series of Episode 5 where we've been discussing how to have a fair and successful fight. While we cover the remaining topics, we also allow ourselves to be transparent with our own experiences. And you certainly don't want to miss Lee's opening cover rendition of "We Are The World", which was quickly shut down after we realized we could be violating some copyright/usage issues and be forced to pay royalties.
This week we continue our series, Fighting Fair, with Part 3. We discuss four more components of a fair fight. Also, Stephen gets lazy with his grammar, Lee continues to question how much time Stephen spends on his phone, Stephen comes clean about being a yeller, and they explore being curious.
This week it's Part 2 of our series from Episode 5, Fighting Fair. We discuss three more components of a successful fight, Stephen can't find the sausage, Lee thinks she's a parking expert and comes up with the world's worst high school cheer.
In this episode, we discuss the the dangers of boredom in a relationship and how you can avoid it.
In this episode, we begin a series of discussions on various issues that can be detrimental to a marriage, as well as ways to avoid them. First up - Jealousy! We explore not only how jealousy can affect a marriage relationship, but also a friendship.
