Nick Lachey co-hosts 'Love is Blind' with his wife Vanessa and says they follow a 'golden rule' to keep their marriage strong
Nick Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, host Netflix's "Love is Blind" together. He says they follow a "golden rule" that keeps their marriage strong, even while working together. "Try and keep it as separate as you can," Nick Lachey said. Working with your spouse isn't easy, and that's why Nick Lachey and his wife, Vanessa, have a strict rule about mixing business and their personal lives. During an appearance on Wednesday's episode of " Richer Lives by SoFi" podcast, Lachey spoke about what it's like to co-host " Love is Blind" with his wife. "I think the best thing you can do is not bring your work home with you," Lachey told host Vivian Tu. "Which is tricky when you work with your spouse, you know, and I think we do a really good job of doing that for the most part." The 98 Degrees boy band member says that he and his wife try to set clear boundaries: Whatever happens at work stays at work, and vice versa. "Sometimes you show up for work and there's an argument at home that you brought with you to work, and you don't want that to bleed over," he said. "I think it's kind of good to compartmentalize and recognize that, you know, you're here doing a job," he said. The couple started dating in 2006 and got married in 2011. They share three children together. They began hosting Netflix's " Love is Blind" in 2020, now in its eighth season. In 2022, they also started hosting another Netflix reality dating show together, " The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On." "So, I think that's our golden rule. It's 'Don't bring work home. Don't bring home to work.' Try and keep it as separate as you can," Lachey said. In a joint interview with Brides in February, the couple shared that they go to marriage therapy and set aside two days a week to prioritize their relationship. "Anything that's worth having takes work," Lachey told Brides. "To me, that's a cornerstone of life, and marriage is no different. There's no shame in that." Lachey isn't the only star sharing insights on what it takes to maintain a strong relationship with their spouses. Jay Shetty and his wife run a business together, and like the Lacheys, they avoid talking about work over dinner. Gordon Ramsay and his wife, Tana, make it a point to dress up and go on regular date nights. On the other hand, there are celebrity couples who would rather not work with each other — like Usher and his music executive wife.

SKIMS co-founder is worth $390 million, but she's still careful with her budget: 'I question the price of everything'
Even with a reported net worth of nearly $400 million, SKIMS co-founder Emma Grede still counts pennies. The 42-year-old serial entrepreneur — she co-founded the apparel company Good American as well as natural cleaning product brand Safely — said in a recent appearance on the "Richer Lives by SoFi" podcast that her "very interesting relationship with money" comes from having grown up without much of it. Grede was raised by a single mother in East London, and said that her mom instilled in her the value of meticulously looking after her finances. "She would sit down every weekend and go through her budget meticulously, planning out down to the pint of milk," she said. "Paying attention to what is coming in and what is going out, but also knowing the price of everything." Indeed, Grede said that she has held onto that attention to detail even though her ability to afford the things she wants has grown exponentially. "To this day I literally know the price of everything and I question the price of everything," she said. "It doesn't matter if it's a massive line item in the company or some powder that I got from Erewhon." Remembering what it was like to struggle to make ends meet and "trying to make money any way possible" has made Grede determined to give back. The executive said that while she is extremely ambitious and is always looking to grow her businesses and try new things, she is also focused on how she can help people who grew up like she did. "Thinking so much about where I come from, and how lucky I got, I think about how those opportunities can be extended," she said. "Success becomes much less about me and much more about what else and who else I can affect." In a 2021 conversation with CNBC Make It, Grede said that the "frustration" of not making as much money as she wanted in her first post-college job is what led her to think about starting her own business. "I have a rule: You have to do things that scare you," she explained. "I think that's so important for growth." Early on, there were points in her first venture — entertainment marketing agency ITB Worldwide — when she hired employees who were paid more than she herself was earning. Bringing in the best talent, she said, helped her compensate for the gaps in her own knowledge. "Some people, they'll be like, 'I'm the CEO. I'm the top dog. I should be getting paid the most money,'" she told Make It. "For me, it was never about that. I wanted to win by any means possible." Grede elaborated on this in her conversation with SoFi, saying that part of what has helped her become so successful is her willingness to mess up. Every quarter she writes down the things that have happened, both good and bad, and "digests" her learnings to see how she can improve. "When you're doing a lot, you're going to make a lot of mistakes," she said. "The thing that I worry about the most is not making mistakes, it's inaction."
