Jason Seward: Why Your Spouse Is the Most Important Business Decision You Will Ever Make
About this episode
Jason Seward discusses the critical role of a spouse in an entrepreneur's success and the traits that make them an asset or liability.
Jason Seward has spent the last four-plus years building a real estate business from scratch after a full corporate career, and he's been married to his wife Katie since 2009. In this solo episode, he makes a case he says most entrepreneurs get wrong: that your spouse isn't just a support system for your grind, they are the single most important business decision you will ever make. Jason walks through the specific traits that make a spouse a business asset or a liability, the moment in late October 2022 when Katie's words gave him the confidence to resign from his corporate career, and why he recently hired a marriage coach for a relationship he already considers a nine out of ten.
