1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 Love, Money &amp;amp; Legacy: Chris on Balancing Business, Creative Purpose &amp;amp; the Future of Finance In this refreshing episode of Espiritu Coffee Chats, we sit down with Chris, co-founder of Surje Coffee and Valerie’s partner, for a soulful and smart conversation on navigating love, business, and the evolving economy. Chris is the first masculine energy to grace the podcast, bringing grounded wisdom, intuitive financial literacy, and a unique blend of creativity and discipline. From how to survive building a business with your fiancé to why everyone needs a &quot;tripod life&quot; (doing what you love, who you are, and how you earn) — this episode is full of gems. ☕ Highlights from this episode: The unexpected intersection of love and entrepreneurship How Chris balances being a founder, full-time employee, and actor Why financial literacy is an act of self-responsibility and legacy The power of plant medicine in conflict resolution (yes, really) What the history of money teaches us about adapting to economic change A surprising question that left even Chris speechless: What has entrepreneurship taught you about love? This conversation blends money mindset, relational maturity, and creative ambition in a way that’s rarely heard especially from the male perspective. A must-listen for founders building with heart, purpose, and partnership. Grab your favorite drink, hit play, and get ready to reflect on your own relationship with business, purpose, and the people you love. 👥 Connect with&amp;nbsp;Chris &amp;amp; Surge Coffee on Instagram 📢 Join the conversation!
