The Creative Bodega | Content Marketing and Instagram Growth for Solopreneurs

Marriage, Money & Entrepreneurship: A Real Talk with My Husband


Listen Later

In this episode of The Creative Bodega, we’re getting personal. I invited my very first guest (drumroll, please... it’s my husband, Rob!) to have a candid conversation about what it’s really like to build a business when your spouse is along for the ride—financially, emotionally, and logistically.

We’re sharing the behind-the-scenes of how we navigated launching our CrossFit gym together, what it looked like when I became the primary earner, and how we manage money, roles, parenting, and the occasional dishwasher drama now that we both work from home. 🙃

Whether you’re trying to get your partner to take your business seriously, considering a big financial leap, or just curious how other solopreneur couples actually make it work—you’ll love this honest and hilarious chat.

Check out the full show notes for this episode.

Things we cover inside the episode:

✨ How we financially planned for our kitchen renovation (yes, it was 6-figures)
 ✨ What percentage of my revenue we put aside for taxes every month
 ✨ The emotional ups and downs of my being the primary earner
 ✨ What it’s like when both partners run their own businesses from home
 ✨ How anxiety (mine) and spreadsheets (his) keep us moving forward
 ✨ The real reason I hated video in the beginning—and how Rob helped me get over it
