Can you really balance marriage, motherhood and entrepreneurship, or is work-life balance the wrong goal altogether?Nellie Akalp has spent decades building businesses alongside her husband, Phil, while raising four children. After helping more than half a million entrepreneurs start businesses, she has learned that success isn't about perfectly balancing everything. It's about knowing what matters most in the season you're in and being present for it.In this episode of Now You’re Talking, Nellie talks with Adrienne Giffen about working with your spouse, raising children while building a business, setting boundaries, developing resilience and what getting older has taught her about letting go of control.Nellie also shares why she believes children learn from what we model, not just what we tell them, why discomfort can build resilience, and why some of the mistakes she has made in business, marriage and parenting have become some of her greatest teachers.In this conversation, we talk about:Is work-life balance really possible?How to build a business with your spouse without losing your relationshipRaising four children while growing a companyWhat children learn by watching their parentsWhy discomfort can help build resilienceHow responsibility can give children a sense of purpose and contributionWhy clear roles and communication matter when couples work togetherHow setting boundaries changed Nellie’s life and leadershipWhat entrepreneurship teaches us about mistakes, failure and starting againWhy Nellie believes resilience matters more than brillianceThe Now You’re Talking Moment with Nellie AkalpOur children don't just hear what we tell them.
