🎙 Through the Noise with Trevor Steel — Episode 22 | Married to the Business (with Fred & Christine Hodge + Ashby Steel)

In this special episode, I’m joined by Fred & Christine Hodge of Clearview Washing in New Jersey, along with my wife Ashby Steel, VP of Clean Image Pressure Washing and Broker-in-Charge of Steel Realty.

We dive deep into what it means to be married to the business — the unique challenges, opportunities, and dynamics that come when your spouse is also your business partner.

🔥 What you’ll hear in this episode:

Fred’s story of starting Clearview Washing from scratch in 2004 and growing it into a powerhouse exterior cleaning company

How Christine transformed their business operations and later launched The Process CEO, helping other service companies systemize and scale

Ashby’s perspective on balancing marriage, entrepreneurship, and leadership as she helps drive growth at Clean Image and manages her real estate career with Steel Realty

The unfiltered truth about dividing roles, handling conflict, and protecting relationships while running businesses together

Practical advice for couples who are in (or considering) business partnership with their spouse

This episode is packed with raw honesty, lessons learned, and a ton of wisdom from entrepreneurs who live at the intersection of family and business.
