A study from the American Psychological Association also shows that marriages with high levels of intentional effort and shared goals are significantly more likely to thrive—just like startups that have strong leadership and aligned mission.

According to research from Harvard Business School and the Gottman Institute, the key pillars of successful companies—clear communication, long-term vision, conflict management, and consistent effort—mirror the foundations of successful marriages.
Both require emotional intelligence, trust-building, and the ability to navigate uncertainty.

Bottom line: sustainable success, whether in business or love, isn’t about luck—it’s about deliberate investment and daily commitment.

: We Need to Talk About Death: An Important Book About Grief, Celebrations, and Love by Sarah Chavez -- recommended by ADEC volunteer and FT Kailey Bradley
---
This book normalizes that death is a difficult topic to discuss. We Need to Talk About Death is written a historian and museum curator (Sarah Chavez), and provides an overview of various aspects of death, dying, and bereavement. Through beautiful illustrations, Chavez introduces topics like eco-friendly burials, catacombs, and various death-related celebrations and rituals such as Mexico's Day of the Dead. This book provides a wonderful sampling of how humans have always revered and memorialized those who have died. While We Need to Talk About Death is geared for young readers, I feel it will capture the imagination of a range of readers (including adults).
