Shame, conflict, and alternate perspectives about how money should be managed in the home can cause arguments and assumptions about how each other feels and begin to drive a wedge between partners. Intimacy and connection might decrease during times of financial tension if thoughts about conflict, finances, and intimacy are intertwined.
Intimacy Life Coach Deise Clements shares how to recognize patterns and separate thoughts for what they are… just thoughts. Creating happiness and abundance in our lives also includes nurturing romantic relationships, even when money is a tense topic. You might be surprised when intimacy and communication in one area resolve issues in another area of the relationship.
“This is for me, not against you.” - Deise Clements
There will always be disagreements and conflicts in a relationship, no matter how much love is present. Family finances are a frequent source of friction in marriages. Today we’re diving into family budgeting, money meetings, and how spenders and savers can happily coexist in a healthy relationship.
When we want to make a difference in our lives, it all begins with our own point of view, our personal priorities, and how we show up in our relationships.
As women, it’s natural to believe it’s our “job” to shoulder all-the-things, but we’re telling you today that you don't have to. Drop that baton, mama! The one-woman relay is over!
Many women tend to put their careers on the back burner while raising a young family. This can cause feelings of inferiority when it comes to self-worth, financial empowerment, and self-confidence. The truth is, you still have a voice, an equal share in financial decisions (no matter who’s earning the income), and can contribute to the family’s well-being in ways you might not have considered before.
In this episode, listen for:
- Deise’s perspective on money and relationships. Money is simply a tool that can be used to make life more convenient, fun, and peaceful. There’s more than one way to accomplish financial goals, and it’s up to both partners to communicate.
- It’s okay for one partner to want something, even if the other doesn't find value in those things.
- The invisible conversation we have within ourselves that causes assumptions about our partner. How to identify it and stop it from happening.
In this episode, you’ll also hear:
[00:10:25] Money and Motherhood intersect whether we like it or not. How ever-present financial challenges affect your decisions and the rabbit hole of “what ifs”
[00:20:24] Finding the confidence to recognize (or admit) you need help and how outsourcing might be beneficial for your entire household
[00:32:36] During times of conflict, partners are less likely to seek intimacy, which often drives the conflict deeper.
