Money Skills For Therapists

170: Healing Financial Trauma with Ed Coambs


Listen Later

What does it really take to talk about money with your partner—without shutting down, spiraling, or avoiding the conversation altogether?

In this episode, I sit down with Ed Coambs, a financial therapist and former firefighter who brings a unique blend of skills to the world of financial planning and couples therapy. We dive deep into the concept of financial intimacy—what it is, why it’s so hard to cultivate, and how your upbringing, attachment style, and even sibling roles can shape your relationship with money and the people you love.

Ed and I unpack why so many therapists struggle with financial shame and fear, even when we “know better,” and explore how integrating therapeutic insight with practical money systems can transform not just your finances, but your whole relational life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck around money in your intimate relationships or wanted a clearer path to building financial confidence without abandoning your values, this episode is for you.

Start Feeling Calm and Confident About Your Group Practice Finances

Feeling overworked and underpaid in your group practice? You’re not alone.

Running a group practice can feel like carrying the weight of everyone’s paychecks — including your own — and wondering if it’s all really worth it.
That’s why I created a free guide called “How to Stop Feeling Overworked and Underpaid in Your Group Practice.” Inside, I’ll walk you through the four keys to becoming the confident financial leader your practice needs — so you can start feeling calm and in control of your money again.
This guide is the first step toward the same kind of financial clarity and confidence I teach inside my deeper program, Money Skills for Group Practice Owners.
