From raising five kids and homeschooling to coaching other couples in e-commerce and relationships, they share raw, hard-earned wisdom on communication, breakdowns, rebuilding trust, and living with purpose. This is not just a story of success—it’s a blueprint for sustainable partnership in both love and business.
