Money is the number one cause of friction between couples. Out of the 50% of marriages that end in divorce, 70% of them end because of financial issues. This is a staggering number, but money in marriage is not something we are taught to navigate, and we don't know how to show our kids a good example either. Today we have The Money Couple, Scott and Bethany Palmer on The Dad Edge. They are financial advisors who got tired of seeing their clients' marriages destroyed because of money. Together they wrote The 5 Money Personalities and The 5 Money Conversations to Have with Your Kids at Every Age and Stage. Scott and Bethany reveal the 5 money personalities, the reasoning behind each one, and how we can learn to work with our spouse's and our children's money personalities. They also discuss how harmful it is to argue about money in front of the kids and how to use money language to actually bring your marriage and family closer than ever before. (You'll also get a link at the end of the show to a money personality assessment for you and your whole family. Visit the show notes for the link to the test and receive a 19-page money personality report.) For the show notes and exclusive links mentioned in this episode go to gooddadproject.com/248.

How can you learn how to be a good dad if your father wasn't there for you? What does it mean to be a good dad? How can you learn to be the father your kids need? Today we have retired Navy SEAL Senior Chief Luis Rivera on the show. He served with the SEALs for 24 years and was featured in Discovery Channel's documentary Navy SEALs BUDs Class 234. Luis has been married for 14 years and has three kids. Growing up, Luis's father never made an effort to be involved in his life. Luis admits, he wasn't always a good dad either. Military life always came first, until he realized what an impact his behavior was making on his kids. Luis is now a fully present and invested dad. He's also part of Mighty Oaks Programs, an organization that helps veterans, active duty military, and first responders deal with PTS and life trauma. Luis opens up about his struggles and failures as a husband and father. He tells us how he spent 9 days in a hotel with his daughter to help her through drug withdrawals. He also talks about the free 5-step program that helps men get a full understanding of who they are and what their purpose is in the world. You've never heard this side of Luis Rivera before.
