“I also know that you're working really hard because you want to take care of your family and you're building this business that you love. So those things all make it fine. But it's just an adjustment. And, communication between you and I, throughout the whole thing has been key.”
My wife, Elizabeth, and I open up about the rollercoaster of emotions and challenges we've faced over the past two years—from meeting through a dating app, to the leap of faith in starting my business, Flow Financial, to the arrival of our daughter, Ellis.
Listen in as we look into the complexities of juggling a new business with a growing family. We talk about how downsizing our income and lifestyle not only tested but ultimately strengthened our bond and found that dialing back on excess, like our second car, bought us more time to do what we believed mattered most.
Wrapping up, we look back at the challenges I faced in marketing Flow Financial and how Elizabeth bridged that huge gap in my skill set and took the company to heights I never expected it to reach in such a short time!
