Episode notes

Calvin Russell: We both want to live a life of adventure where we spend freely on the things that bring us happiness. He says he and his partner are more aligned than the average couple on money specifically. But at the same time, there could be a road where maybe there needs to be a change based on your preferences or potentially my preferences. "Money is extremely emotional, regardless of where you came from," said Russell.

Money is a leading cause of problems in relationships. It’s not just not having money, it’s conflict around money, lack of alignment, and the downstream effects of that.

Money is complicated because it’s influenced by your direct circumstances, but also by your childhood, psychology, and trajectory. It's also complicated because so few people talk openly and honestly about money.

In this episode, Steph and Cal open up the kimono and explore how they deal with and think about money in their relationship. They share their current working philosophy on money and stories about the things they struggle with and are still working on.
