Kathy Rushing, Entrepreneur Marriage Coach, Part 1

Over the course of her 30+ year career as a marriage counselor, Kathy noticed that few resources exist for entrepreneur couples. In her own marriage to an entrepreneur, she often wished she had a playbook for the unique set of challenges they faced as business owners. The health of the business was a presence in their every conversation and lifestyle choice, and she observed the same in other entrepreneur couples. In fact, divorce rates are higher among entrepreneurs. This led Kathy to develop a specialized coaching program and resources designed to help these couples recognize and work around their differences, and to aid conversations about and outside the business.
