The Power of Partnership: Why Supporting Your Spouse’s Dreams Leads to Success
You feel the weight of loneliness when trying to build something on your own. I’ve been there, and let me tell you it’s not a great feeling. When I first started my company, Z180 Radio, a lot was happening in my life. My wife and I were going through a rough patch, and during the building phase, we briefly separated. It was devastating, but I kept working around the clock, pouring everything I had into the business.
At the time, I didn’t know if we would reconcile, but I felt I had to keep pushing. Eventually, my wife and I got back together, but I was still juggling a full-time job and building the business behind the scenes. Then something shifted she started to believe in me and encouraged me even when things didn’t make sense. Her support was the catalyst I didn’t realize I needed.
Once she stepped in and supported the dream, it all started to come together. She handled the areas where I lacked, using her strengths to complement mine. Together, we turned my vision into our reality. Today, the future feels bright because we’re moving as one.
Our story isn’t unique. Lisa and Brian Sugar, for example, turned their complementary strengths into the foundation of PopSugar, now a massive media company. Julia and Kevin Hartz did the same with Eventbrite, proving that encouragement and teamwork can spark something extraordinary.
Being in business with your spouse is not always easy. It requires communication, patience, and a shared commitment to the bigger picture. But when both partners bring their unique strengths to the table and truly support one another, the results can be remarkable.
The journey is brighter when you’re not walking it alone.
God Bless The Entrepreneur.
