Episode How to Design a Family First Life - Before Kids w/Chandler Bolt
How to Design a Family First Life - Before Kids (w/ Chandler Bolt — Founder of selfpublishing.com)
How high-achieving newly married men design a family-first life before kids arrive. Chandler shares the blueprint he and his wife are implementing now: build the village, align your circles (work, friends, faith), and create a home that becomes the hub for family and community.
He explores identity shifts, integrating ambition with family values, and the big question entrepreneurs ask: How do I build a great business without sacrificing a great family?
You'll learn: • The Pre-Kids Family Blueprint: how to architect life around marriage & future kids • Why integration beats balance — combining work, community & family in one place • How to design a "home as hub" — the modern village model • Smart moves now: church, neighborhood, office, travel and future homeschooling • The truth about kids + ambition (and the fears most founders won't admit) • How blue-collar grit shaped Chandler — and how to pass it on without hardship • The "We're rich. You're not." mindset for raising grounded kids • Why legacy assets like books & family videos matter long-term
If you want to build a thriving business and a thriving future family — this is your playbook.
