Working With Your Spouse Can Get Spicy 😂

Working With Your Spouse Can Get Spicy 😂

From CMJJ Headquarters

October 3, 2026

What’s it really like when your spouse is also your business partner? 👀

In Episode 31 of Coffee Time with Carlos Machado, Lindsay Machado opens up about the challenges of working alongside your spouse while juggling business, marriage, family, and everything else life throws at you.

For Lindsay, it’s not really about finding the perfect “work-life balance.” It’s about recognizing what needs attention and stepping in where you’re needed most.

Her analogy? Sometimes running a business feels like being a trauma nurse—solving problems on the fly, putting out fires, and helping people become capable of handling those problems themselves.

☕ Episode 31 with Lindsay Machado is OUT NOW!

Watch the full episode and join Carlos and Lindsay for a candid conversation about marriage, business, teamwork, and the realities behind building something together.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
