Talking with your spouse about money can be very difficult when you have differing views. However, it is important to be able to speak about such an important topic because a lack of communication can lead to arguments, blown-out budgets and less than ideal savings accounts. So, how do you approach this conversation without starting a fight? In this episode, I will be sharing four tools to use to discuss tough money topics with your partner.

Listen in as I explain how everyone’s views on money stem from their childhood and why it is essential for you to remember that before getting upset in a money conversation. You will learn the benefit of looking at the data, when you may want to think about involving someone else in the conversation and why you should think about the words that you use in this conversation.
