82. “My husband won’t let me spend the money” – what to do when you feel financially limited

Dec 10, 2024

Have you ever felt financially limited because you and your partner aren’t on the same page about how you spend money? Navigating financial disagreements can feel tricky, but it doesn’t have to leave you feeling powerless. In this episode, I’ll guide you through reclaiming your financial sovereignty and fostering more compassionate, productive conversations around money with your partner.

As we explore this topic, I invite you to reflect: Is there something you might unconsciously gain by feeling financially powerless? It’s a bold question, but uncovering the answer can transform your financial life.

Remember, no one ultimately controls you. Whether in a partnership or not, you can step into your financial sovereignty, reclaim your confidence, and move forward with more ease and abundance.

“When we realize that we are giving our power away, our job is to ask: what is the secondary gain? How is this serving me?” -Kate Northrup
