Episode notes

I think having a rule around maximum spend is important. I recently thought of an investment that would be good for me and staff, which was more than a thousand dollars. And in this case, you were comfortable with it. If you weren't, you would have been able to voice that. So we have some sort of trust there around that thing, which actually helps with bigger purchases and longer term decision making as well.

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.
