Dr. Jennifer Dragonette – Understanding the Role of Money Conversations in Relationships
Manage episode 440717061 series 3262460
How do you have money conversations with your spouse or partner? And just as important, what are you trying to achieve by having them?
Today, we're diving deep into the intricate dance of relationships, communication, and money with our resident therapist, Dr. Jennifer Dragonette. We explore the importance of understanding each other's upbringing and values, particularly hot-button topics like finances.
Dr. Jen stresses how curiosity can replace fear in these conversations while sharing techniques to bridge communication gaps and foster empathy by delving into each other's painful stories and experiences.
Fear and shame frequently serve as roadblocks to open communication, but Dr. Jen offers insights on how vulnerability and openness can help break down these barriers, leading to a stronger, more intimate connection.
Together, we'll discuss practical strategies like regular "walk and talk" sessions and financial date nights to keep the lines of communication open and reduce anxiety around tough conversations.
Please enjoy my conversation with Dr. Jennifer Dragonette.
