Business Partner Partners

Chrissy & Ryan are interviewed by Ryan's co-worker and friend, Eric Dodds, on the vulnerable inner thoughts of running a business with your spouse. We cover a variety of topics including our personal philosophies on why we keep the business running when it feels like we want to burn it all down. If you're running a small business and have ever felt defeated or are curious about how we make it work as spouses, this is a great ep for you!

Eric Dodds is a husband, father of three, and co-host of The Data Stack Show, a podcast that explores the intersect between data engineering and business.

Michael and Caitlin Hayes from Clare's Creamery had ice cream in their future since the day they met. They've built a successful business and brand focused on community with two locations in Greenville, SC. We discuss chasing the ultimate goal over the money and how they've created a strong culture within their business of Customer Service,  Cleanliness, and Consistency. This is a must listen for anyone running a business with their spouse, interested in opening an ice cream shop, or just generally great business tips.
