Want to know how a married couple with four kids started and grew a business to multiple-six figures? TEAMWORK!!
Join Keri and Shereem Herndon-Brown as they give you the inspiration and information on how any husband and wife team can serve their marriage, support a family and start and succeed in business!
Big things take big…… guts/courage/you know what word I want to use! Living life “afraid” is paralyzing and you will get nowhere if you don’t do whatever you want to do “afraid”
Fear can be a great motivator to your success. In marriage, you ask yourself “4ever, ever, ever, ever?!!” In family you’re like “can I afford a kid or two or 8?!” and in business, more than anything you cannot be afraid to share what you have to offer, make the money you deserve and have the time and freedom you’ve been dreaming about.
In this episode, we’re giving you the real.

You Know Enough Today to Teach Someone Something
Imposter Syndrome is the term that keeps a lot of people stuck in neutral. You “think” you don’t know enough to teach someone else. Not true.
We’re all at different points in our lives, marriages, parenting and businesses. If you’re entrepreneurial and you have something to teach, there’s someone out there who wants and needs your teaching.
In this episode, we will encourage you and show you how to be a second grader to a first grader. Show people who have not been through what you’ve been through how to do it, so they can have comparable or even greater success.

Why You Need a Mentor, Not a Coach
The term “business coach” used to be reserved for a select few. Business coaches are supposed to give you information and inspiration to get your business to the next level. You can't follow everyone. Find someone that you feel like is doing what you want to do and follow them. Check them out. Receipts. Do they have a coaching program? Everyone should have a paid mentor. IG/Clubhouse gurus beware of them. Make sure that their only success isn't selling you a program to tell you how to do something. This is why we like the term and practice of “business mentors.”
So what’s the difference? In today’s episode, we’ll tell you and share our experiences with you with our business coach and why we love her. And we will share with you why you need a credible business coach or a mentor to succeed in business.

The Self-Confidence Formula
To start and grow a business, you have to believe in it. Whether you think it’s a calling, a passion, a purpose, or even a ministry, the courage to start something that will reveal your strengths but also probably expose your weaknesses, can be terrifying. Plenty of people become frozen with fear and never start and definitely never grow.
Today’s episode is all about how we’ve had to muster up the courage constantly to continue. It’s called the The Self-Confidence Formula and it’s something we work at and live by.

Working on Your Business, Not In It
One of the hardest things for any business owner to do is to stop working with clients or customers, assess what they’re doing right and wrong, fixing it and taking the time to prepare for the future. Much like corporate America, entrepreneurs can get caught in a rat race and instead of working on their business and building towards the future, they stay stuck on the hamster wheel of the every day product and service they provide.
Today’s episode is all about how to succeed by recognizing the importance working on your business and not just in it.

The Entrepreneurial Myth
If you think all entrepreneurs floss out like Puffy or Jeff Bezos, you’re wrong. The myth that starting your own business equals quick cash or a yacht needs to die right here! We all start and grow businesses for different reasons, and while some entrepreneurs are ballin’, most are not. Entrepreneurs are courageously crazy people who value their time AND their money and we need to set the record straight.
Today’s episode is all about the entrepreneurial myth. What’s real and what’s not.

Great information when starting and growing a business.

How to fit MarriageFamilyBusiness Into Your Life
Are you concerned about how you’re going to “do it all” as a spouse, parent and entrepreneur? It can be a a lot but there’s a way to make it happen. First you have let go of the term “work-life balance” because if you want to start or grow a business with your spouse, and make real money, work-life balance is a myth. You cannot give everything equal time. To stay sane and get rich, you should blend your MarriageFamilyBusiness life into one, have boundaries, and prioritize it exactly in that order. Listen as we explain and show you how!

Why Having Separate Offices is KEY!!!
Have you ever wondered why some MarriageFamilyBusiness couples win and others don’t? One of the key reasons is that they know how to work separately and then bring themselves back together.
Opposites attract, and there’s a good chance one of you will like to work at night and the other early in the morning. Sharing is not sexy, but being productive is. Whether you have enough space in your home for separate offices or one of you goes to Starbucks (pre-pandemic) or a co-working space, you have to do it. Working back to back in one office may be a little bit too much!

How to Support Your Spouse
Does your spouse want to start a business? Do you support their idea? Nothing is more important when starting a business than the support of people you love, especially your spouse. When we started our business 15 years ago, Shereem had to help me get on board. This is common and it’s important to talk about.

Being Clear on Your Why
So many couples want to start a business, but how many can really see it through? One of the key ways to start, grow and sustain your life as a business owner is understanding “why” you’re actually doing it.
Is it to be your own boss?
Do you want more flexible work hours for your marriage and family?
Are you trying to teach your kids about having a passion and following it or about entrepreneurship?
Whatever your reasons are, you must start with your “why?”
In today’s episode, we tell you why we started our business and why we keep going even when we weren’t sure we would make it. Having a common why can keep you focused on your goals. Being an entrepreneur means handling the ups and the downs, so whether it’s going great or it’s really hard, keep remembering your “why.”

We’re juggling the craziness just as you are. Yes, sometimes we struggle but more often we succeed. Why? Because we work together. How? By having a plan, setting boundaries and trusting each other. Listen to our debut podcast and how we’re setting our intentions for 2021.
