SUMMARY: Read Complete Episode at BabyproofYourMarriage.com

Now, what does business have to do with marriage or babies? Well, actually, quite a lot.

We know that many businesses fail if they are not properly planned for and most only last three years; if that. Through my work with many businesses as well as getting a master's degree in business and working for some of the top companies in the world, I know what it takes to succeed. I've also seen failures.

They say that most businesses fail within 3 years. Well, the honest truth is most of those fail within six to 12 months because they don't have a proper plan that they're not on the same page with their team. Or in this case, the partner, whether it's your husband, wife, partner, boyfriend, girlfriend, the one you chose to have a baby with your life is going to change.

As parents, we are shaping the future generations and we want them to live a full, happy, productive, environmentally friendly and absolutely fantastic lives. Giving them different opportunities through music, education, school, engineering, whatever it is that they are attracted to that we can help provide for them.

Are you waking up with a smile on your face? Are you waking up exhausted? 

I'm going to give you some tips for that too, on how to be more restful when you sleep, when and if and when you do get your naps, and also how to split the chores up so that it's not all on one person or the other and how to use your strengths to really make sure that both partners are taken care of because it's really challenging when one partner feels they're doing the heavy lifting. 

One thing I really like to encourage couples to do together is to create a Vision Board. Now a vision board is an amazing tool to  really plan and fulfill your life goals. 

What I found is that in today's society, many of us don't go to necessarily an organized place week after week that helps us to get that connection, to keep that connection and date nights and things where we get away from the children together as a couple.

I grew up in a family where my parents never ever hired a babysitter. I remember one night of my entire childhood where my cousin babysat us. Honestly, the rest of the time my parents were at home. Still to this day, my parents love to hang out at home. They watch their TV. My mom reads her books and, they're happy, you know, but that's not the life I want. And my partner knows it so we have a plan and Vision Board to meet our goals and needs.

Now this isn't a fix it program. This is a strategize program from the business perspective that can be applied to any person or couple easily. I am not a relationship counselor. 

Let me give you the reality. The person you fell in love with is going to be the same after you have a child. So if they were a partier then most likely, unless they carry the baby, are going to continue doing whatever habit that they were in before you had the baby.

Our goal here is to use business strategies for happiness with the intent of hopefully baby proof your marriage or relationship. So that not only is your relationship stronger. It's ready to prepare that child for an amazing life and an amazing future because that is the intent. You created another creature and you want them to give the best back.

I'm happy to be here. This is Angela DiCarlo and I've consulted many businesses in all aspects, everything from startup companies to $300 million brands to companies that have grown into billion dollar companies. So I've definitely seen a little bit of everything. Hopefully I can provide some strategies that will help you to achieve more happiness, keep reading.
