You’re growing your business, but is your marriage growing with it? In this special conversation, Sarah and I sat down with Christa Hardin—licensed therapist, Enneagram expert, and host of The Enneagram + Marriage Podcast—to share the behind-the-scenes story of how we almost separated just months after launching Triad. We talk about how the Enneagram, therapy, and a Sunday morning ritual helped us rebuild our relationship from the ground up. We open up about our journey from high school sweethearts to partners raising a family and scaling a fast-growing company—while navigating the emotional ups and downs of entrepreneurship and marriage. We get real about what it took to go from tension and resentment to connection and respect, and how we now support each other emotionally, practically, and professionally. If you want to build a business and a home life that both thrive, this episode is for you. 3 of the biggest insights from Brad and Sarah… #1.) Therapy Isn’t a Sign of Struggle, It’s a Sign of Strength What started as a tough talk in Napa turned into weekly therapy that helped Brad and Sarah reconnect—and gave their kids a model of what healthy relationships look like. Therapy isn't a weakness. It’s what showing up really looks like.  #2.) Hire an EA Who Manages Life, Not Just Business Most entrepreneurs use their EA for scheduling. Brad uses his to protect his marriage. By looping Sarah into calendar decisions, they built a system that prevents business from overrunning family and stops resentment before it starts. #3.) How Enneagram Helped Them Understand (Not Fix) Each Other Brad’s a 7 (The Enthusiast). Sarah’s a 6 (The Loyalist). The Enneagram helped them move from conflict to collaboration, turning their differences into a strategic advantage, at home and in business.
