Money can be funny. But, most of the time talking about money isn't funny at all! In this episode, Chris and Ericka discuss how it takes courage to have meaningful money conversations in relationships. Identifying personal hot buttons around money helps people understand what is required in order to elevate the conversation. We share our own experiences where courage was necessary. It took courage to make some financial decisions but the outcomes are worth the effort. Although you may not be able to see that right away. Having these conversations can help people make lemonade out of lemons. An important element of these conversations is the ability to recognize individual discomfort around certain topics, along with taking courageous steps to address them. Listen in to learn more.
