79. Navigating Financial Pressure

Money can be a tough topic for marriages and relationships, especially in today's challenging financial climate. Finances can become a minefield for some couples, but achieving a life of peace and power in every area, including finances, is possible. Peace isn't about the absence of conflict or troubles; it's about having a plan.

In this dynamic and empowering episode, Jason Vallotton sits down with his good friend Chris Lamm, owner of Mortgage One in Redding, California, and host of the Money Whole podcast. Together, they address the keys to moving towards financial freedom and fostering financial harmony in relationships.

1. Seek Expertise: Find someone who’s better at managing finances than you and ask for help.
2. Budgeting: Utilize a personal family budget to track and manage expenses effectively.
3. Long-Term Vision: Create a long-term vision for where you want to be financially, then reverse-engineer that vision to set achievable goals.
4. Strategic Financial Management: Be strategic with income, investments, and savings by either increasing your income, cutting unnecessary spending, or both.
5. Overcoming Barriers: Address barriers to financial growth, including fear and uncertainty.
6. Take Action: Take proactive steps towards your financial goals, no matter how small they may seem.
