How I Use KPIs & OKRs To Keep My Marriage Healthy as An Entrepreneur (#375)

About this video

Sam shares his approach to maintaining a healthy marriage and long-term relationships while working long hours. He emphasizes having explicit conversations early about life goals, values, and deal-breakers—treating relationships with the same intentionality as business partnerships—and implementing regular check-ins using OKRs and relationship journals to track progress against shared objectives.

Key takeaways

• Sam advocates for having difficult conversations upfront in relationships (marriage, business, friendships) to identify misalignments and deal-breakers before years of potential conflict accumulate
• He and his wife created a detailed life plan together covering finances, number of children, lifestyle, location, and values—then work backwards from those specific goals to determine what each person is willing to sacrifice in different life phases
• Sam applies business tools like quarterly OKRs and weekly check-ins to his marriage, tracking progress on adventure, relationships, finances, and physical fitness to ensure both partners stay aligned on shared priorities
