Bonus Episode: Divorce-Proof Your Marriage – Why Obsessing over Business Success Will Always Destroy What Truly Matters!
In this heartfelt bonus episode of the Pretty and Punk Podcast, hosts iLdiKo Ferenczi and Dan Caldwell tackle one of the most overlooked truths about entrepreneurial success: Your marriage is the foundation for everything. It’s not just a catchy phrase—it’s a reality backed by years of experience and therapist insights. When parents focus more on building their businesses than nurturing their marriage and family during the critical early years, the damage can be lasting. The truth is, children who feel abandoned emotionally or physically will gravitate toward the parent who is present and trustworthy. Once that bond is broken, rebuilding it becomes nearly impossible. Dan and iLdiKo get raw and real, share the struggle of marriage, obstacles, building, selling, businesses while prioritizing their marriage and raising strong, connected children. They reveal the warning signs of putting work over family and the devastating impact it can have—not just on your marriage, but on your relationship with your kids. This is the episode for entrepreneurs who are striving to excel in both their personal and professional lives. You’ll discover how to balance love, family, and business, creating a legacy that lasts for generations. Don’t miss this chance to learn how to divorce-proof your marriage and build an unshakeable foundation for success. P.S. Leave a review with your @handle—we’ve got a surprise waiting for you!

Are You Struggling to Balance Marriage, Kids, and a Thriving Business? You’re Not Alone.
Do you ever feel like you’re constantly being pulled in a million directions? Like no matter how hard you work, there’s never enough time for your business, your marriage, and your children, all while still trying to take care of yourself?
Maybe you’re chasing financial success but feel disconnected from your spouse. Maybe you’re growing your business, but your kids are growing up faster than you can keep up. Or perhaps you’ve built something incredible, yet deep down, you’re still wondering: Is this what success is supposed to feel like?
If you’ve ever wrestled with these questions, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to the Pretty and Punk - Entrepreneur Parent Podcast, Where Ambitious Entrepreneurs Build Thriving Families.
Hosted by Dan Caldwell, founder of the $300M+ brand TapouT, and his wife Ildiko Ferenczi, actress, social media star, and the founder of Canada’s first woman-owned luxury architectural concrete company, this podcast is a game-changer for entrepreneurs who refuse to choose between their family and their dreams. Together with their two young children, the world’s youngest podcasters, Daniel and Destiny, they invite you on their journey of building a thriving business while raising a strong, connected family.
This podcast was born during one of the most challenging seasons of our lives. While facing one of our greatest obstacles, we realized that success in business means nothing if we’re losing the people who matter most. We wanted more, we wanted financial freedom without sacrificing our family, our faith, or our dreams. And we know so many families are searching for that same balance.
This isn’t just another business podcast. It’s a real, raw, and powerful conversation about what it actually takes to build a successful business, a strong marriage, and raise future leaders, all at the same time.

Parenthood doesn’t mean losing your identity; it’s a superpower you didn’t even know you had. And this podcast will help you tap into your God-given destiny.
