There are so many different schools of thought when it comes to having a mission and vision statement for your business. Some teach that they are no longer needed, while others say you MUST have them in place before you get your first client...

Why try to fix into a cookie-cutter shape when we weren't meant to be that shape? In this episode of The Married...

That isn't always the easiest and most received kind of feedback. ...

You can't appreciate what you don't understand!! I remember when we would get so irritated with each other over B A S I C stuff.

'Schedule your marriage' are the words I heard when we were desperately seeking a better way to run our business and our lives TOGETHER!
