What happens when a mind-mapping executive coach and a logistics-driven commercial janitorial founder share a dinner table? Usually, it turns into an unofficial boardroom meeting. If you are married to a fellow business owner, you know the vibe. My husband Willie and I speak the same language of growth, but our daily grinds look completely different: My business, Optimal Mindset LLC, is intensely cerebral—focused on psychology and high-level strategy. Willie’s business, GSJ Services LLC, is intensely physical—focused on specialized operations and complex logistics. On paper, they are opposites. But because we are both heavily hands-on, client-facing, and constantly cross-marketing for each other, we face the exact same trap: our businesses demand our total personal energy. When we carved out the last two weeks of June to unplug, we couldn’t just set boundaries for our companies. We had to pause our entrepreneurial identities entirely to remember who we are as husband and wife outside of the hustle. In Part 2 of my Mindful Entrepreneur series, I’m pulling back the curtain on how a cerebral founder and a physical founder synchronized their pauses, navigated the guilt of stepping away, and protected their partnership. 👉 Whether you're a solo founder or part of an entrepreneurial duo, read Part 2 now via the link in the comments! #EntrepreneurCouples #MindfulEntrepreneur #OptimalMindset #GSJServices #FounderLife #WorkLifeIntegration #ProtectYourPartnership #Unplugged
