Vista View Events existed for five years before Kinsey owned all of it. For those five years she had a business partner — a true fifty-fifty, and a family member on top of it. In this episode, Kinsey tells listeners what a two-person equity partnership actually is, what it felt like to live inside one, and why the structure you choose on day one follows you for years.

She breaks down why an even ownership split creates a built-in deadlock risk, why "we're family" so often replaces a real agreement (and why that's a reason to formalize, not skip it), and the self-drafted, never-reviewed operating agreement that became a liability the moment the partnership started ending.

Kinsey closes with an honest, balanced look back: she'd partner again, buy out again, and buy a business again — the partnership era built the venue she now owns outright. But the even split and the unreviewed paperwork are the two decisions she'd never repeat.
