What this episode covers
Join Our Community Here: https://www.lifeintransition.online/ What would your marriage look like if you ran it with the same intentionality you run your business? Jesse Hurst didn't plan on getting married again. His first marriage ended after years of counseling that never quite fixed the underlying problem, and the financial and emotional cost of that experience left its mark. When he met his now-wife Rochelle on a 47-minute flight from Atlanta to Jacksonville, she was even more resolved than he was — she told him flat out she would never remarry. Twelve years later they run two integrated businesses together, have built what Jesse describes as the life he always imagined was possible, and implement a weekly marriage check-in that Jesse credits as one of the most practical tools in their relationship. That check-in is the most immediately useful idea in this conversation. It's not therapy. It's not a structured exercise. It's a weekly 30-60 minute conversation with a simple format — what's working, what's not, what do we want more of — that keeps small things from becoming big things and keeps two people who are busy running businesses and lives from drifting apart without noticing. Jesse also goes deep on the business side of his transition — from founding partner at Millennial Group to launching Impel Wealth Management with a clear philosophy: only do what you're actually good at, and invest in getting everything else off your plate. His financial planning framework and the pop culture lens he uses to make complex concepts accessible are both worth the listen.
