A prescriptive guide to how to launch your own business without sacrificing your personal life.
The idea of starting your own business is both exhilarating and inspiring. It's one over 30 million Americans pursue. Some create innovative new products, others may aspire to develop a brilliant idea into a bestselling app, make a custom jewelry business a full-time career, or just be their own boss.
But being the significant other of an entrepreneur is not so glamorous. Suddenly, there is no longer a clear boundary between your partner's home life and work life, personal finances become entwined with the finances of the company, you may be asked to relocate to another country for the sake of the business, or find yourself feeling like a single parent as your spouse travels, works late hours, and answers the call of the business 24-7.
START, LOVE, REPEAT will help new and long-term entrepreneurial partners understand exactly how a start-up will affect their own lives-and what they can do to build a happy and healthy relationship in the midst of the madness. Married to the cofounder of the successful start-up d.light design, Dorcas Cheng-Tozun has lived through the perils and pitfalls of being married to an entrepreneur and has realistic, first-hand advice for any couple considering making the same leap. She also draws on research and interviews with other successful entrepreneurs, executive coaches, marriage family therapists, venture capitalists, and start-up authorities to offer practical insights and advice.
