Serena Williams' husband, Alexis Ohanian, who is also the co-founder of Reddit, recently shared his perspective on how he balances his family life with his entrepreneurial pursuits.

Ohanian believes that embracing parenthood has helped him become a more effective CEO for his venture capital firm, Seven Seven Six (776).

Three years ago, Ohanian made a conscious decision to resign from Reddit's board, recognizing the need for personal development in his life, particularly for the sake of his wife, Serena Williams, and their daughter, Olympia.

On Wednesday, May 3, Ohanian took to social media to share how he balances his family life along with his businesses. He emphasized the significance of family meal times.

The 40-year old made a promise to Williams and Olympia that he would always be present at the dinner table, no matter how busy his schedule gets. To keep this promise, he and his team work together to ensure that he is always on time for family meals.

"I promised my wife & daughter I'd be home 6pm every night for family dinner and that time is damn near sacred for me. My team knows that and we schedule around it," Ohanian tweeted.
