We're marking a special milestone over the next month - 5 years of building our business, Done By Nine!
In this episode, we turn the tables and invite my wife and business partner, Jacqueline, into the studio to reflect on our journey of building a digital marketing agency from scratch.
From our humble beginnings during COVID lockdowns (with a newborn baby on the way!) to selling Jacqueline's salon business to running our agency remotely from Mexico for three months - we open up about the real challenges and triumphs of building a business as a married couple.
In this conversation, we explore:
- The pivotal moment when we realised our business was viable (hint: it involved a vulnerable LinkedIn post)
- How we managed family life while recording content with toys shoved in corners during lockdown
- The significance of our first office space and that all-important coffee machine
- The delicate balance of working together as spouses and business partners
- Our vision for the future
Whether you're running a business with your partner or simply curious about our origin story, this episode offers an honest look at what it takes to build something meaningful together, both in business and in life.
Join us for part one of this special reflection as we celebrate five years of Done By Nine!

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
