So excited to chat today about stress, anxiety, couples, dealing with that, and finances. Tell us just a little bit about who you are.
Well, I'm glad to be here. Thanks for having me, Delene. It's great. I'm a therapist. I see adult individuals and couples. I'm licensed in nine states. And I also do quite a bit of keynote speaking for professional organizations, educational organizations, companies, continuing education events, retreats, conventions.
Yeah, very good. So excited to dive into some of the questions I've got and hear the expertise from your side. I know when I was doing my coaching certification, you know, we dabbled a little bit in financial therapy just so we could understand that's beyond you and that recognition so we could actually move forward. So I'm excited for this to kind of go a To kick us off, how can couples create a safe space for discussing finances without conflict?
That's such a good question and it's such a meaningful question, yes? Because very few people aren't dealing with finances in some way. There are very few people I know, I don't know about you, where that's not some kind of consideration. Most people are not avoiding that, yes? And I also think it's so interesting that we, as a culture, are super aware of how hot button other issues are in couples and relationships. But to your point, we were talking just a minute ago, you know, financial discussions, money still seems awfully taboo. And it's really interesting because many people have gotten to a point where they're very comfortable saying something about how their family history or how they were raised or the culture in their family impacts XYZ in their adult life.
but not money. They don't talk about that almost at all. And I find that really interesting because in many ways, it's no different than how did your family culture influence your attitudes about any other thing, right? That's a part of your adult life. And yet it remains this police lines do not cross kind of territory. So when it comes to cultivating a safe space for discussions about finances and money and goals and priorities, the same rules apply as every other safe space.
