Welcome to For Better or For Work.
What’s it like to be partners in business and in life? Mirasee owners Danny Iny and Bhoomi Pathak tackle the unique challenges as well as benefits of working with a spouse or significant other. Each episode features a guest couple who also share their experiences, perspectives, and hard-earned wisdom.
Rob Walling is a serial entrepreneur who’s built and sold several companies, including Drip. He has been helping non-venture-backed startup founders since 2005 and now runs the first startup accelerator for SaaS bootstrappers, called TinySeed. Although he has invested in more than 125 startups, he doesn’t believe the only way to start a company is to raise money — in fact, he’s built six businesses to six- or seven-figures in revenue without taking outside funding. Rob also hosts the most popular podcast for bootstrappers, called Startups for the Rest of Us. It has more than 10 million downloads and 1000 five-star ratings.
Dr. Sherry Walling is a clinical psychologist, speaker, podcaster, author, and mental health advocate. Her company, ZenFounder, helps entrepreneurs and leaders navigate transition, rapid growth, loss, and any manner of complex human experience. She also hosts the ZenFounder podcast, which has been called a “must listen” by both Forbes and Entrepreneur Magazine and has been downloaded more than 1,000,000 times. She has also been known to occasionally perform as a circus aerialist.
