Joshua Z. Tabin is a husband, father, entrepreneur, and author. He grew up in the cornfields of central Illinois in the 1980s – back when "screen time" meant the window and "influencer" meant the guy who could fix your tractor. He attended the University of Illinois and received degrees in Accounting and... maybe you guessed: Sociology. Which lends at least a minimum amount of credibility to this work on marriage and relationships, and a maximum amount of disappointment to his somewhat traditional parents – his mom a psychotherapist, and his dad a psychiatrist. Josh has been married to his wife Zora for over twenty-five years – which, by modern standards, qualifies as either a miracle or a case study worthy of scientific investigation. Together they have built several businesses that didn't fail, raised children they didn't screw up, and exposed the popular theory that "you can't work with your spouse" for the nonsense it is. Apparently, if you actually like each other, proximity isn't the problem everyone claims it is. Josh has built a number of businesses over the years, including: one of the world's first multi-user online computer games (before "gaming" was a career and "addiction" was the diagnosis); one of the world's first Internet browsers in 1992 (back when explaining "the Internet" to people required hand puppets); a computer integrations & development company called Tabin Technology that he successfully sold to a public company in 2002; co-founder of the world's first Starbucks franchise, which grew to hundreds of coffee shops across Central Europe (fueling the caffeine dependency of entire nations); Founder and Managing Partner of a venture capital firm focused on natural food brands; and most recently, a freeze-dried food manufacturing and distribution business that he runs with his wife Zora – because apparently twenty-five years of marriage wasn't enough togetherness. Josh enjoys writing about relationships and other topics with the humility of someone who's made enough mistakes along the way to know he's not an expert, just a practitioner. He's still figuring it out, still proving that it's good to have a wife – and, presumably, that it's good to have a husband too. She hasn't filed any objections. Yet.
