Should you work with your spouse? Our advice 5 years and 4 businesses later…

[@ChristmasHGTV]

Your next business--counseling for married business partners! Seriously, I am so proud to see such maturity, acknowledgements, and care in both personal and business relationship and understanding. Spread the word, kiddos! Thanks for the heart.

[@jennieanddavis]

Haha we do NOT have the empathy and grace required for that kind of business.. yet. On that topic, all we can say now is: there are no relationship problems. There are single-people problems that don't get resolved before a relationship buries them deeper into our behaviors...

[@timhow1657]

Your honesty is refreshing.

[@jennieanddavis]

We tried lying. It was way harder in the long run...

[@Erikleaholsen]

You two are so awesome. Thanks for making this video!

[@jennieanddavis]

We're really glad you enjoyed it, guys! Just remember that we're not the source of the awesomeness ;)

[@chrisdurocher2996]

You two are awesome! I’m 2x your age and love the honesty. Keep it up and much love from Austin, TX

[@claudeelliott3993]

Since I didn't hear from you after my last posting I can only assume that maybe I touched on some sensitive areas based on this video. Businesses need to be firmly grounded in a primary area before jumping into the diversification jungle. As my mother would have said "biting off more than you can chew"! No criticism intended just friendly advice. Of all that you, Davis, said one word stood out and believe me when I say that it's the most important one. That being COMMUNICATION! Trust me on that one that I learned the hard way during 58 years of marriage! Good luck!

[@Kuldrin]

Loved this one as well. It was good to see you two bantering back and a forth on the couch. I think that's what was missing from the other highly scripted videos you have done. A rule my wife and I live by both in business and person life is "Hurt me with the truth rather than comfort me with lies." It's a promise we've made each other to the point a friend had it embroidered on a hand towel for us. LOL

[@s1ckret]

Thanks for sharing your experience! It's very valuable for me

[@jennieanddavis]

Happy to share our lessons learned the hard way! lol

[@brostir64]

Nicely done, good info. You guys are awesome

[@jennieanddavis]

Glad you enjoyed it! Just remember that we're not the source of any apparent awesomeness ;)

[@Itsreallymarcus]

Have the same respect and love for eachother but when it’s time to work, separate relationship from work/business partner during working hours. Have to be able to compartmentalize and differentiate the 2 in order to avoid complacency and feelings. It’s hard to do but amazing when achieved

[@jennieanddavis]

Absolutely! Well said, Marcus!

[@mainerdiy8399]

Jennie an introvert? Didn't see that coming. Guess YT brings all kinds of things out of people. Great video

[@jennieanddavis]

Follow your fears ;)

Thank you very much for all the good informations you guys providing . I’m working from my garage as well and my dream to have a shop. One question and I would really appreciate your respond . What license do I need to open a shop like yours ? Do I need c-6 carpenter lic ? Please advice

[@dontfit6380]

You don’t need a carpenters license. Just go do it!

[@namocrafts1101]

@@dontfit6380 thanks for ur replay sir . So I just need to register a name and get regular lic ?

[@dontfit6380]

@@namocrafts1101 register a name and get a EIN number for paying taxes the government always wants their fair share lol. There may be laws different in your state and your location some states are business friendly others like commie California are not. Most of all don’t let anything stop you. My first 2 business I did nothing for the first year other then start making money. You don’t need anyones permission to live your life.

Literally an ad interrupted your ad

[@paulharrison6373]

It's great what you are doing ,trying to do two jobs ;tou will eventually get burn out especially when you get older,something has to give ,great videos Paul from NE England

[@Rhyzal_]

Respectfully, I disagree. I know many older people in my small town that do multiple jobs. They started when they were young, loved what they were doing, and were comfortable in the routine needed to keep it going as they aged. With the right passion and balance, nothing is stopping someone from having and thriving at multiple jobs. 😁 Cheers!

[@dontfit6380]

I’m 55 my wife and I have been running 2 businesses for about 20 years along with homeschooling our kids. Love every minute of it and are always looking for ways to expand.

[@jennieanddavis]

We'll see, Paul. Hopefully not! Thanks for watching!!

[@kantraxoikol6914]

i don't even have to watch, i can say right now that you tried 3 times too many, and that it's quite obvious you can work with your spouse, just not the same freaking place.

[@jennieanddavis]

I hope one day you find the peace you're working so hard for.

[@Kansastreetop]

That is OK. Just kiss and make up. Never go to bed in an angry mood. I see a little one on the horizon after the kissing and making up is done.😃
