This week, in episode 191, Liz Picarazzi, Jaci Russo, and Laura Zander talk about what it\u2019s been like building a business in partnership with a spouse, and they all agree on some important things. For one, they all say that, had their husband been just another employee, he probably would have been fired. All three say that in their relationships, they are the gas that drives the business, and their husband is the brake that sometimes keeps them out of trouble and sometimes frustrates their entrepreneurial instincts. And all three agree that some things are best left undiscussed. For example, says Jaci: \u201cMichael doesn\u2019t even know what we make. He also doesn't know what any of the employees make.\u201d But the three CEOs also agree on this: In the final cost-benefit analysis, they wouldn\u2019t want to build a business any other way.
