QUOTES:
“We understood very early on that you either grow together or you grow apart.” [2:36]
“Once you get to the way things ought to be and you have a collision there. So, “I understand your position, you understand mine, but I think you’re crazy and you think I’m crazy.” That’s where it gets dangerous. You can have some - you will have some - but if you have too many and you don’t know how to navigate, or compartmentalize, or say, “Hey, cool like we’ll put that on the back burner,” you’re going to have a real problem.” [4:37]
“…from the beginning, I think you have to establish communication with your partner, even when you have to say the hard things.” [9:33]
