How to Handle an Unsupportive Spouse or Partner As a Big-Thinking Business Woman
Episode description
If your partner or spouse isn’t necessarily on board with your business ambitions, you’re not alone.
Lack of (emotional) support is a topic that comes up often for women business owners. In fact, it came up several times among attendees during my April mastermind retreat and even after everyone went back home.

In this episode of Time to Level Up, you’ll learn eight reasons why your significant other can be unsupportive of you pursuing your business dreams. I’ll also teach you four things to do to resolve it and make the situation (and the conversation about it) a little easier for you both.
