Several years ago, Kerry Anderson and her serial-entrepreneur husband Adam made a joint decision for Kerry to leave her career as a paediatric nurse and become a stay-at-home mom to their two children. It wasn’t long before Kerry realised just how challenging this new role was. Between Adam’s intense travel schedule, the ups and downs of owning/operating a business, managing employees, and surviving the occasionally failed startup (and accompanying financial losses), Kerry quickly learned that being an entrepreneurial spouse was not easy. As Adam evolved into a business owner, the stress took its toll on their family. Resentment, distance, and suspicion flooded their marriage, leaving Kerry feeling helplessly trapped.

When she and Adam hit their breaking point, they sought counselling and started down a path of healing. They also developed their own therapeutic strategies, modelled after the business practices & meetings they had grown so accustomed to, and they saw their relationship improve. Over the years, Kerry and Adam met many other young couples who were just starting out in their own businesses, and each had the same question: “How did you do it?”

After sharing the same nuggets of wisdom throughout dozens of conversations, Kerry decided to share her story and insight in In Bed With the Business, a practical survival guide for entrepreneurial couples. Today she and Adam are sharing their journey with couples who may be struggling with the same issues that plagued their own marriage. Through Whole Life Entrepreneurship, Kerry and Adam are building a supportive global community of entrepreneurs and their spouses who can relate and empathize with the struggles they each face, empowering one another to successfully navigate the chaotic world of marriage and entrepreneurship.

In this episode, I share some of my strategies and observations on how to get the most out of visiting or exhibiting at business shows. From the common mistakes that I see on regular occasions to setting a plan on creating the best possible impact and making sure you are using your valuable time wisely.

**SPECIAL NOTE** - Unfortunately Weyv is no longer available Stephanie wanted me to give you this special message.

We are saddened to announce that effective tomorrow, August 9, 2019, the WEYV app will no longer be available. We thank you for being with us as we aimed to build a robust, multi-content entertainment app. While we are disappointed that our efforts did not result in the outcome we had hoped for, we walk away with unforgettable experiences and lessons learned.

Now you may ask why are you still airing this episode and the reason is simple although Weyv may be no more, Stephanie has a huge amount of experience and shares some brilliant knowledge bombs during this episode.

Stephanie Scapa is the Co-Founder & CEO of WEYV, a platform that allows users to listen to music, read magazines and (soon) listen to podcasts all in a single app experience. While competition is fierce with established brands like Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon, Stephanie is on a mission to unite friends and families through shared access to ALL of the premium entertainment and quality content that binds them together.

Not only has Stephanie led efforts surrounding the development of the app, but she is also a skilful negotiator, having successfully secured deals with major record labels and publishing companies like TIME Inc., Bonnier Corp., Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group and Sony Music Entertainment, in order to offer their content to WEYV users.

Under Stephanie’s leadership, WEYV has been built on a patented digital content licensing model where content providers are fairly compensated in proportion to the amount of time their content is accessed. This is a revolutionary model for content providers to monetize their intellectual property.

Stephanie is also an accomplished philanthropist having founded Tech Treehouse in 2016, a Metro Detroit-based non-profit providing after-school STEM activities to children, and she holds a bachelor’s degree in industrial and operations engineering from the University of Michigan.

During this episode, I answer a question from one of the listeners Thor from Stavanger, Norway.

He asks me what strategies have made the biggest impact on my own life, share these and I explain how I implement them.

Tony Bradshaw grew up in a lower-income neighbourhood in Nashville, TN. In 1996, he realized he was mismanaging his money and knew something needed to change. That’s when he set out to learn how to handle money better. At age 25, Tony made his Millionaire Choice, his choice to become a millionaire by age 40. He accomplished his goal in 2011.

With a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Tony spent the first six years of his career as an engineer/network administrator. In 2001, he entered the financial education world as part of an internet business and development group, where he spent 16 years bringing financial education products to the online world. Serving as CIO and COO for a major financial education company, Tony helped shape the strategy, technology, and systems to deliver financial education to those in need.

During his journey, Tony realized his own message and vision for helping people with their personal finances. In June 2017, Bradshaw began writing The Millionaire Choice with the vision of helping anyone become a millionaire, no matter their income, ethnicity, or financial situation. Tony aspires to create a movement of financially-educated and wealthy people who will make it their mission to fight poverty and help those in need around the world. He calls it The Millionaire’s Manifesto, and you can read it at www.themillionairechoice.com.
