Business Advice & Wisdom for Young Family Entrepreneurs (FS160)
Running an indie business is more possible than ever — even when you’ve got a young baby or a new marriage. But if you try to simply burn more candles at more ends (or pour more cups of coffee to get through the day) you’ll find yourself and your family paying a price too high.
On the show today, some wisdom and advice for entrepreneurs in young families. Steph’s about to have a baby, Barrett’s about to get married and Chase and Corbett have lived through enough of these experiences to have a valuable vantage point.
Regardless of how far down the road of family or business you are, if you want to live well, you’re going to love this episode. Enjoy!
Show Notes
Female Company President: 'I'm sorry to all the mothers I worked with’:
“I was now a woman with two choices: go back to work like before and never see my baby; or pull back on my hours and give up the career I’d built over the last ten years. When I looked at my little girl, I knew I didn’t want her to feel trapped like me.”

“The immediate now, whatever its nature, is the goal and fulfillment of all living. Flowing from this insight is an emotional ecstasy, a sense of intense relief and lightness, and of almost unbearable love for the world.” ~ Alan Watts
