In this episode of The Creative Bodega, we’re getting personal. I invited my very first guest (drumroll, please... it’s my husband, Rob!) to have a candid conversation about what it’s really like to build a business when your spouse is along for the ride—financially, emotionally, and logistically.
We’re sharing the behind-the-scenes of how we navigated launching our CrossFit gym together, what it looked like when I became the primary earner, and how we manage money, roles, parenting, and the occasional dishwasher drama now that we both work from home. 🙃
Whether you’re trying to get your partner to take your business seriously, considering a big financial leap, or just curious how other solopreneur couples actually make it work—you’ll love this honest and hilarious chat.
