Going from owning multiple successful businesses, fancy cars, and homes to living in a van and couch surfing. How would your marriage survive this? Hopefully, you’ll never have to find out but you can listen to this week’s guests, Tim and Glori Winders, to find out how they did it.

Entrepreneurs have an independent streak for sure. I have it, you have it, we all have it. It’s why we can’t see ourselves in a 9 to 5 job. It’s why we’re so successful in what we do. We take the bull by the horn and make it happen.

If you’re like many business owners, it’s been hard to find good employees. It seems like the younger generation doesn’t want to work and are lazy. Or at least that’s what they say. But think about this, the baby boomers were also considered lazy when they were in their twenties and thirties.

According to the 2022 U.S. Census Bureau, a little more than 10% of businesses are run by husband and wife teams. And that number is continuing to grow as more and more couples are realizing they can make more money working together than in separate jobs or businesses…

The reasons why couples fight over money is due to the different attitudes and habits that were formed growing up. Whatever was modeled to us growing up is what we adopt as an adult. As you’re aware, those differences are what causes the conflict.

Welcome to Thriving in Tandem. It’s a podcast for you the married entrepreneur that wants to win in business and marriage at the same time. The biggest challenge for the married entrepreneur isn’t just succeeding in business, it’s succeeding in all areas of your life including your marriage…

We’re all about helping the married entrepreneur create greater work-life balance. A lot of our discussion is around setting boundaries and being more efficient with our time. This week, we want to talk about an often overlooked aspect of the business that largely determines how hard the business has to work to make a profit. PRICE.

We hope to save some marriages with this episode. Since money issues is the number one reason for conflict and divorce in a marriage, we would be remiss if we didn’t address it. The conflict boils down to this difference. One spouse is a saver while the other is a spender.

Many people think becoming a millionaire think you need to inherit it, take some big risks, invest into the next Amazon, win the lottery, or build a business that blows up. That does happen. But the average millionaire does it like we did.

I’m sure you’ve heard the term, “money can’t buy you happiness.” If you’re like many, you may be one of those that say, “try me.” But if you’ve been around enough rich people like this week’s guest, Marissa Nehlsen has…

The reason many entrepreneurs struggle with resting is that it feels unproductive. If you rest, you’re not getting things done, right? The opposite is true.

Most, if not all, employees want retirement benefits and I know most employers want to provide them. But many small business owners don’t think they can afford to provide them.

As a business owner, you have a financial target on your back. People assume you have money and will pitch you all kinds of ideas. Anything from an MLM, cryptocurrency, gold, or the next Amazon.

We did a thing! Our first book is released today on Amazon. What’s it about? Work-life balance and how to win in marriage and business at the same time. Is this even possible? It is.
