College buddies, co-workers and now business partners, Licensed Clinical Social Workers and founders of Skylight Leadership, Rhonda Gipson-Willis and Jessica D. Johnson talk about the blessing and curse of going into business with a friend. This may have turned into a counseling session, as they do share the truth about conflicts, habits that drive one another crazy, and where their husbands fit in all of this! Rhonda and Jessica are refreshingly candid about the highs and lows of going into business with a friend, including:

• what to watch out for when deciding to be business partners with a friend
• the outcome of NOT stepping outside of their comfort zone with their first business
• how they transitioned from co-workers to business partners
• how they settle disagreements in their business and protect each of their interests if things go badly
• their strategies for landing new clients when they were unknown in their industry
• tips for determining whether you should partner with your bestie or any other friend
• transitioning from side hustling for 'Coach purses and vacations' to full-time business 'that pays the light bill'
• and so much more
