135. Lauryn & Michael Bosstick: The Unfiltered Truth About Running a Business With Your Spouse

Building a business is hard. Building it with your spouse is supposedly impossible. Yet, Lauryn and Michael Bosstick turned their 12-year-old playground romance into a successful digital media empire, The Skinny Confidential, that proves love and business can be a winning combination. In this episode, this power couple shares the unfiltered truth about working together, and how they have carried on their shared vision not only to their audiences, but also to their children. What could you build if you stopped seeing your relationship as a business liability, and started seeing it as your secret weapon?
