I'm thrilled to be able to share this conversation with Carrie Melissa Jones with you! Carrie is the co-author of Building Brand Communities, with Charles Vogl, and she's kind of a big deal in the community-building world. She's also an alum of the facilitation masterclass and a friend.

This is Part Three of a Three-part, wide-ranging conversation. You can enjoy this conversation even if you haven't listened to parts one and two, but you can find the link to them here.

Today, We explore a topic of great importance and impact - how to make a creative partnership work…something I am thinking of as being a "Conscious Cofounder".

Carrie reflects on the journey she took in creating her book with her co-author, as well as sharing her lessons learned along the way about helping a partnership ride out the inevitable dips and bumps that happen along the way.

Enjoy the conversation as much as I did!
