Being successful can often come at a price. And all too often that price is paid by those who are closest to us. It’s easy to get tunnel vision when running a network marketing business: checking your phone at all hours, missing family time to run a meeting, or simply forgetting to check-in with your spouse over who’s turn it is to wash the dishes.   Instead of assuming they’ll always have your back, we need to be mindful and gracious of those who support us along our journeys as business owners.    This week Kristen shares the ins and outs of what it looks like to have a thriving business and the challenges of maintaining a healthy marriage.   Here are a few other tid-bits from today’s episode:   Why there is no such thing as overcommunicating The importance of creating and managing each others expectations Kristen’s story of how she and her husband learned to prioritize their relationship in ‘the thick of things’ How being in a hustle mindset can harm your marriage Why your spouse may not want to quit his day job (and why that’s ok!) Part of the joy and fulfillment of being successful is having someone to share it with. When we lose sight of what’s important, we run the risk of alienating the very people we hoped to help. But when we work towards enriching and protecting our relationships, it allows us to share the celebration of our success with those we hold dear.   Thanks for listening!
