This Ask Shannah episode was inspired by a question from Nicole who wrote, “Shannah, I’m so thrilled to have found the Everyone’s Talkin’ Money podcast. You cover so many topics that I never knew I wanted to learn about and I’m always sharing them as you ask me to do with friends, so thank you. Ok, I’ve got a doozy of a question. My partner and I are always getting into fights over money. We’ve been together for 5 years now and are considering marriage but I’m pretty scared. We’ve gone to therapy about money but it feels like nothing changes. My partner and I both sneak and hide things we’re buying that we both know are bad. I’ve listened to a lot of your episodes on mindset and money trauma and I really get into them but then I have a hard time talking to my partner about what I learn and what I’m feeling. I don’t know, I just feel like all we’re doing is fucking up our relationship by letting money take such a front seat. Any advice and tips and anything else you can share I’d so appreciate it. I’m going to be bold and say that I’m sure I’m not the only one listening who is also letting money f-up the relationship.”SPONSORSThanks to Chime for sponsoring the show.
