Today, I’m speaking with Rivky Rothenberg. Rivky is a CPA and financial coach who helps families make sense of their money and build a strong, values-based financial foundation.
She works with couples to create clear, practical systems at home so they can raise children with healthy money habits and avoid the patterns that lead to entitlement. She also guides engaged and newlywed couples through the early financial decisions that shape their future, helping them get organized, communicate well, and start off on the same page.
Drawing on her background in accounting and years of hands-on experience, Rivky focuses on giving families both clarity and tools—so they can feel confident in their finances and in the example they’re setting for the next generation.
I loved speaking with Rivky because money is one of those things that is still a bit taboo and nice to speak about with a real professional, someone who has seen a lot and can speak from that experience.
In the episode, we speak about:
-How she got into financial coaching
-The language we can use to speak to our kids about money even from a young age so they develop a healthy mindset around it.
-How to speak to teens and older kids about money in a way that makes sense to them and teaches them the value of it
-How to deal with money differences that come up in marriage, which almost always happens as each person comes in with their own money styles, backgrounds and triggers
-How to develop more emunah and bitachon into your money mindset
…and so much more!
