Episode 220: Money and Relationships: It’s Not Always About The Money with Bari Tessler

Hi ass-kickers! Following February’s month-long daily diary episodes, we are back with guest interviews and our regularly scheduled programming. Today, I have an amazing guest with me, Bari Tessler. Bari is a financial therapist and mentor coach. She is also the founder of The Art of Money: a global, year-long money school, which integrates Money Healing, Money Practices and Money Maps. No matter what economic class you were born into or what class you are in now, money-shaming exists. Bari talks about how money shaming affects our ability to reach our goals. Plus, we touch on money stories, your relationship with money and how money can affect your relationship with your partner or spouse (and what to do about it).

In this episode you’ll hear:

• Bari’s relationship to money and her own money story (5 minutes and 20 seconds)
• The origins of our money stories and savers versus spenders (9:43)
• Bari’s body check-in tip to help you build a better relationship with money, she calls it the anecdote to money shame (22:08)
• How to connect with your partner on a deeper level, starting with “money dates” (29:35)
