Keys to Financial Peace with your Partner

Ed’s Edge – Season 2, Episode 14

Whoever you may share financial responsibility with whether it be your partner, your child, your parent, or someone else close to you, understanding their Money Mind is pertinent to having a healthy and harmonious relationship with one another. Similar to love languages, it is not detrimental to communicate using different languages, it’s just a matter of understanding, respecting, and working with each other so that nothing becomes lost in translation.

Join us for our second episode on this topic where we dive into the different Money Mind combinations and how they impact your decision-making as an individual and a family. We talk through the common shortfalls that many have experienced with opposing Money Minds and what you can do today to be mindful and proactive.
