Marriage is a covenant. Business is a commitment. When the two come together, clarity and structure matter more than ever. In From Vows to Ventures, Dr. Lilly Mbinglo, CPA, shares practical insight for married couples who want to build a business together without compromising their marriage, finances, or long-term goals. This book serves as a guide for couples who believe partnership at home can extend into partnership in business, when done intentionally.
Why This Book Matters for Married Entrepreneurs
Starting a business as a couple comes with unique challenges. Without clear roles, financial structure, and open communication, even strong marriages can experience unnecessary strain.
This book addresses those realities head-on. It helps couples understand how to build businesses that are structured, compliant, and aligned with their shared values, while protecting both the relationship and the enterprise.
What You'll Discover Inside
This book walks couples through the critical phases of building a business partnership with clarity and purpose. Inside, readers will learn how to:
-
Build a strong foundation before starting a business together
-
Clarify roles and responsibilities to avoid confusion and resentment
-
Choose the right business structure and understand its financial implications
-
Manage money transparently while maintaining trust
-
Protect both the marriage and the business through intentional planning
-

Rather than offering generic advice, the book focuses on practical decision-making and financial awareness, two areas where many partnerships struggle when left unaddressed.
"Whether you and your spouse are dreaming of starting a business or nonprofit, already running one, or simply exploring new ways to grow your family's financial future, this book is your guide to turning marital teamwork into marketplace success."
