Should you start a startup with your spouse?

This week, Justin is joined by Michele Hansen (co-founder of
Geocodio). We explore a bunch of questions:


What it's like to bootstrap with your spouse

6:30 – where Michele and Mathias found the idea for their
company

7:00 – when you have kids you need diapers at 1am

Why people start companies

7:55 – how getting pregnant motivated them to build a product

10:15 – Matthias initially built a really basic geocoder for
their purposes

11:30 – a lot of bootstrappers get motivated to start a
business after they have their first kid

Tyler Tringas: "Building, Owning (& possibly Selling) a
profitable remote SaaS business is the new American Dream."

13:20 – "we were so surprised that people wanted to pay us."
