I sat down with my wife Jessie for a really special episode of the podcast. We talked about what it’s actually like being married to a serial entrepreneur, the highs, the lows, and all the uncertainty in between. I asked her how she’s managed to stay supportive through all the pivots, experiments, and tough seasons. We got honest about what it’s really been like building a life together while also building businesses. Whether you're an entrepreneur yourself or you're married to one, I think this one will hit home.
