I chat with Marc who is the founder of VitalDollar.com and has been self-employed for the past ten years buying and selling websites. We chat about how to balance a growing side hustle, career and a relationship. He gets candid about his journey to self-employment while married, the types of conversations he had to have with his wife so they were both on the same page, and what’s changed since they have kids.
