I recently made an Instagram post about how to get your partner on board with your business and it certainly seemed to resonate with a number of people out there. I thought it would be a good topic to talk about on the podcast today. As business owners, we live and breathe our businesses and they entwine into everything we do. It can be disheartening when friends and loved ones don’t quite have the same enthusiasm. In this episode, I share about how I navigated the journey of starting my own bus...

That spark, idea or desire that caused us to say “I can do this better”or “there’s another way” and start our own business. In this episode we look at how to remember and refoc...
