On today's Financial Clarity for Doctors Podcast, we speak with popular author, Carl Richards, about having a discussion around finances with your spouse.
Our conversation with Carl Richards is essential listening for anyone who is or plans to have a partner one day. It's never too early to begin thinking about or talking about your financial future. Our guest lays out some ground rules to help make this conversation productive, healing, and eye-opening.
Family histories, lifestyle expectations, and identities all live within our views of finances, which can make the money discussion a personal and sometimes painful topic. Richards is here to show you how to start the money conversation. Provide you with rules like no shame, no blame, focus on what you can control, and time out. After listening to this podcast, you'll have the tools to begin the process. Remember, this is typically a process, not a one, and done conversation.
Tip of the day: Take some time to think about your earliest memory with money.
