For those of us married men aspiring to SF; how do we determine if our wives can handle the lifestyle? I only ask because I know my wife is a tough girl and could handle it. However she is having trouble seeing this in herself.

Your profile mentions a baby due in September. I image you on your knees pleading with her to support your SF dream but it must be hard to see her sweet face over that tummy she's sporting.
Giving birth to a child and selection have a lot in common. (Effort, pain, devotion, long-term commitment . . .
shush ladies I'm navigating at night here. . . )
Your Reason For Living may be reluctant to support
your dream right now because she is in the middle of Phase One of her/your dream. Are you as "there for" her -- right now -- as you are asking her to be" there for" you once you enter the pipeline?
Can you see how she might not quite see it that way as she tries to see your point over her swollen tummy?
Timing is a big part of life. It might be that now is not your time for SF. You may want to reconsider your family schedule. Baby now, SFAS in 3 years.
