I don't get it, is it only for couples that are both entrepreneurs?

@joshuapinter The course is primarily designed for couples where one person is an entrepreneur and the other person is not. The information and exercises could still be useful even if both people are entrepreneurs.

@thomasknoll @joshuapinter Ah, kay, gotcha. That's more useful, or more applicable. Something I struggle with on a daily basis.

@joshuapinter For sure! Kim and I have been working on these things for years, and we still run into stressful situations and difficult decisions every week. Sometimes we fall into old patterns and have to hit the timeout button to take a breath, remember the tools, and use them. I don't think the 'arena' for entrepreneurship ever changes... just the way we play the game.

Thomas and Kim are two of my absolute favorite people. By being friends with these two, I've had the pleasure of seeing how they've faced life's obstacles together, which become more complicated when you're both entrepreneurial. Their friendship has been a blessing to my wife and I. I think anyone who takes this course is in for a real treat. They and their spouse are going to come out so much stronger.

I like the premise of the product --- i think its interesting especially in this new economy. I lived overseas for a while, i wonder how cross cultural the content is?

@ramisms Thank you! I don't have a ton of data for you yet, since this will be the first cohort of the course. But, we have worked with people outside the US. And, a lot of the research that we use in the course was conducted with international participants. I suspect that a lot of the things we cover are generally related to the human condition. Even with cultural differences in the nature of relationships, there is value in learning how to communicate our perspectives, how to truly hear the other person, how to practice the behaviors during calm times that we want to exhibit during high-stress moments, and how to recognize tensions before they fully manifest in harmful ways.

@thomasknoll @ramisms makes a lot of sense -- thank you for the thoughtful response - look forward to seeing how it evolves.
