Ending the Financial Feud – Couples and Money
How to Resolve Relationship & Marriage Money Problems & Issues
Online Workshop & Webinar
Love and relationships can bring us tremendous joy in our lives. However, combining love and money adds a layer of complication that most of don’t expect when we fall in love. In fact, the frequency of money-related fights in a marriage or relationship is one of the biggest predictors of divorce.
Does it seem like you and your spouse / partner are constantly fighting about money and financial problems? Do you find it hard to even get onto the same page with your finances without it turning into a fight? The good news is there’s hope! Your spouse / partner isn’t trying to make your life difficult financially and create issues; they’re just different than you. In the Ending the Financial Feud workshop / webinar, you and your person will learn how to:
- Identify your money histories – more specifically, how money was handled in each of your households;
- Recognize the money messages you heard growing up and how those shaped your perceptions of money;
- Identify your own relationship to money;
- Name your money values and how these guide our spending;
- Identify your money triggers (what makes you feel angry) and learn how to communicate this with your person;
- Set goals as a couple and understand why and how the goals meet each partner’s values and needs;
- Decide who has the desire, skill, and ability to create and implement a household money management plan in your marriage or relationship (e.g. budgeting, savings, planning for the future, etc.);
- Identify the 3 ways couples can handle their money to prevent issues (everything together, everything separate, or a hybrid version);
- Consider if this is a second time around relationship and the things to think about to ensure success and avoid problems;
- Implement various financial systems to make life easier, and
- Create a financial agreement where no “thing” is more important than the relationship.
This webinar is free. It’s 1 hour long, interactive, and even fun! We take a “grab and go” approach – grab an idea or two and go try it. All participants will walk away with ideas, resources and the full curriculum upon request.
