The Blakes Way

Running InspoHub has taken us everywhere from Monaco and Miami to Saudi Arabia, Japan and beyond — but business travel isn't always as glamorous as it looks on social media.

In this episode of The Blake's Way, we share the funniest, most stressful and most memorable moments from years of travelling the world to deliver event video production.

🎙️ The Blake's Way is a podcast about navigating entrepreneurship, marriage and parenthood - while building a life that feels truly yours.

For years, we said, "Not for us."

There was always another business goal to achieve, another country to visit, another adventure waiting around the corner. Like many couples, we wondered whether we would ever feel truly ready to have children.

In this episode, we share the honest story behind one of the biggest decisions of our lives: how we decided to start a family.

We talk openly about the conversations we had, the fears and doubts we faced, how our childhood experiences shaped our thinking, and what ultimately gave us the confidence to take this next step together.

This isn't a guide on how to know when you're ready. It's simply our personal journey through a decision that changed the course of our lives.

Whether you're thinking about having children, navigating a similar conversation with your partner, or are simply curious about our story, we hope this episode resonates with you.

Topics discussed:

• Deciding whether to have children
• Childhood experiences and their impact
• Fear, uncertainty, and taking the leap
• How long it took us to get pregnancy
• Pregnancy experience so far
• Ekaterina's lifestyle during pregnancy

Thank you for listening and being part of our journey.

Working with your partner sounds romantic - until it isn’t. In this episode of The Blakes Way, we go behind the scenes of what it’s really like to work with your partner.

We break down:

• What our business actually does and how we divide responsibilities
• The clashing working styles that caused tension (and some memorable fights)
• The turning point where we realised our way wasn’t working
• The communication, boundaries, and systems that changed everything
• What partnership really means when pressure is high

This conversation isn’t polished or perfect - it’s real. We’re still figuring it out, but this way works for us.

If you’re building a business with your partner or thinking about it - this episode is for you.
