What is it like to give birth to a new child — and a new business — in the same year? Spoiler alert: it ain’t sunshine and rainbows. But, the personal and professional growth that can come as a result are priceless.

In this honest and intriguing journey through Alex & Lisa’s first year in business together, we’ll hear about the argument that made Lisa get out of the car on the way to a Kenny Chesney concert… and she was the one driving!

 

Plus:

• The difficulty of serving customers who don’t really know - or care - what you’re going through 
• When you don’t generally stop to rest, people assume you never will 
• We all have a max capacity that gets stretched over time; when it’s almost to the point of snapping, that’s when to take a breath and let it relax
• And, the sensitive event that added a whole other layer of confusion to Alex and Lisa’s first year spent as partners in business

 

Optimizer Tip: Use a planner to plan your day the night before. Alex is a fan of the “Intelligent Change” planner.
