Description

In this episode, Vicki speaks with Lily Llewellyn, of Provide Society, a specialist who supports families, couples, and close friends who work together. Lily combines her background in family psychotherapy and business to help people navigate the practical and emotional realities of running a business with someone they’re personally connected to.

This conversation is particularly useful for product creators and e-commerce business owners who currently work with a family member or are considering bringing one into the business.

What you’ll learn

• The most common challenges family-run businesses face

• How to decide who does what

• How to protect both the relationship and the business

• What to discuss before going into business together

• How to handle tensions or conflict

• The difference between what the family needs and what the business needs

• Succession planning without the stress

• What “growth” actually means

If you work with a partner, sibling, parent, or close friend — or you’re considering it — this episode will help you do it with more clarity and much fewer headaches.
