About Us
Life partners. Business partners. Best friends.
Working to become the best version of ourselves, while living our dream life...and helping others do the same.
We are Meredith & Craig, we left the 9-5 corporate grind, to become full time entrepreneurs....and had no idea what we were doing.
But we knew we were unhappy and unfulfilled in our corporate careers and that life is just too short to be unhappy and unfulfilled, so we decided to make a massive change and leave.
We wanted to be more intentional about building a life that we loved. Not the one we grew up believing we were destined for because that’s what we were told.
So, we went completely against our nature and decided to jump out of the plane and build our parachute on the way down.
Which made for some interesting, amazing, stressful, awesome, painful, insightful, scary, awful, awesome, unbelievable decisions, moments, experiences, relationships, and quite honestly, we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Through it all we’ve developed a growth mindset, and grew exponentially as individuals, we built businesses, most of which sucked, got in the best shape of our lives in our forties, and did all of it while strengthening our marriage and making it bulletproof.
Our marriage is the foundation for everything else we build in our lives. It is a cheat code for life, and we believe that having that dialed in helps every other facet of life and that has become our passion.
We help others live their dream life and that starts with having that rock solid relationship where you don’t need to spend valuable time and energy repairing a relationship.
When you have that dialed in it only requires maintenance which leaves so much time and energy to focus on building the life of your dreams together.
We love helping others get that part of their lives exactly where they’ve always wanted it, so they can crush the rest of their lives.
