Can you build a successful business without sacrificing your marriage, family, or faith?

In this episode of Called to Impact, Genesis Krick sits down with business coach, keynote speaker, author, and trainer Dave Kauffman, President of Empowering Small Business, for a conversation about the unique challenges facing entrepreneurial couples.

Dave shares lessons from more than 20 years of working with business owners, including how differences in communication, decision-making, risk tolerance, and personality can slowly create distance between spouses.

Genesis and Dave discuss why understanding yourself and your spouse is critical, how tools like DISC can improve communication, and why couples need a shared vision if they want to grow together rather than simply build successful lives alongside one another.

They also introduce their upcoming 12-month mastermind for entrepreneurial couples, designed to help couples strengthen their business, faith, family, finances, and relationship while building something meaningful together.

In this episode:

• Why successful businesses can still create struggling marriages
• The communication gap many entrepreneurial couples face
• How personality differences affect business decisions
• Why one spouse may be the "gas pedal" while the other is the "brakes"
• How past business failures can affect a marriage years later
• Why understanding your spouse matters more than trying to change them
• Using DISC to improve communication and self-awareness
• Creating shared goals and a common vision
• Growing together instead of growing apart
• Why your spouse and family should never become secondary to the business
• The upcoming mastermind for entrepreneurial couples
• Dave Kauffman's EDGEcon 2027 conference
