What's your business, and who are your customers?
The Relationship Paradigm uses my Relationship Model to help couples develop better relationships. My customers are couples anywhere in the English-speaking world.
Tell us about yourself
I got started about 15 years ago when I was in a fading relationship and running businesses that gave me little, if any, fulfilment. I sold my businesses, retrained as a psychotherapist, and started working to change people's lives. I realised that one of the greatest gifts in life is a loving and fulfilling relationship with another person, but who teaches us how to have a great relationship?
I have written two books and 370 articles on relationships. These have been read by over 4.8 million people. My mission is to impact and improve 10 million relationships around the world in this decade.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Making a real, positive difference in many people's lives.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Staying focused. There is so much to do that you can drown in being busy!
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Follow your dream.
- Do what makes you feel fulfilled.
- Pause and seek affirmation that you are doing the right thing.
