Episode 120 – The Money Conversation Most Couples Keep Avoiding

Money is one of the most important conversations in a relationship. It’s also one of the most avoided.

In this episode of Building Wealthy Habits, Jeremiah and Laura share a candid look at how they handle financial conversations in their own marriage. As financial planners, business owners, parents, and spouses, they’ve learned that money discussions are rarely just about budgets and bank accounts. They’re often about security, trust, priorities, and the future you’re trying to build together.

Many couples avoid talking about money because they don’t want conflict. Others assume they’re already on the same page. But as life becomes more complex, avoiding these conversations can create stress, misunderstandings, and missed opportunities.

Jeremiah and Laura discuss the questions every couple should be asking, common communication mistakes, practical tools for creating financial clarity, and how alignment around money can strengthen both your finances and your relationship.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re having the right financial conversations with your partner, this episode is for you.
