Show Notes
00:00 Introduction 06:24 Many couples struggle not just with money decisions, but with who thinks about the money. How do you see the mental load showing up in financial management? 5:50 What advice would you give couples where one partner is the “default financial manager” and the other is disengaged? 17:58 Why do we keep making the same money mistakes even when we “know better”? 23:55 You’ve said “getting ahead is a trap.” That’s countercultural. What should people aim for instead? 29:10 Rapid fire questions: For these questions, say the questions back and provide a succinct instinctual response: One money belief you’ve changed your mind about? A financial rule people should break? A financial rule people should never break? Best way to start a money conversation with your spouse? One word you want people to associate with money? 34:38 Where can listeners learn more about you and purchase your new book, Your Money? 35:39 If listeners take away just one idea from your work, what do you hope it is?
