How do you maintain a thriving business and a happy family life when your spouse is also your business partner? On this special episode of the Blue Collar Business Podcast, I sit down with my incredible wife, Sara Kirby, the CFO of Sy-Con, to discuss the trials and triumphs of running our construction company together. From the initial decision to break away from traditional work environments to balancing the demands of a growing business and a young family, Sara and I share our personal journey and the invaluable lessons we've learned along the way.
One of the cornerstones of our conversation is the evolving role of women in the construction industry. Sara recounts her transition from taking over administrative tasks to becoming the backbone of our business operations, all while raising our children. We delve into the crucial role that women play both on-site and behind the scenes, and how their contributions are shaping the future of the industry. We also share practical tips for separating business from personal life, including the importance of dedicated "business conversations" to keep our relationship and our company healthy.
The episode wraps up with a deep dive into the transformative journey of building and managing a business together. We discuss the importance of maintaining integrity and morals, the challenges of adapting to various roles, and the rewards of continuous personal and professional growth. From strategic investments in equipment to improving communication and implementing effective systems, Sara and I shed light on the critical decisions that have shaped our company's success. Join us for an honest, heartwarming look at the delicate balance of work and family life in the blue-collar world.
