Episode 02: Money & Me (Part 2)
Money Story - Our Collective Story
This is part 2 of a 2-part series called “Money & Me” where we dive into the world of our money stories. These are the narratives that define our relationship and perspective on money, encompassing our upbringing, experiences, influences, and attitudes towards money.
In this episode we reflect on the highs and lows, the trials and triumphs as we merge our distinct paths and individual money stories to craft a new and shared narrative together – our story.
Crafting a new collective story is often overlooked in our individualistic society where the mentality of “I do me” and “you do you” prevails and is often carried into marriage. This is particularly true when it comes to money. Whilst it’s important that each individual is able to express and be who they are, we must not to under estimate the power and importance of crafting a shared narrative together, particularly in a marital relationship where, as cliché as it sounds “two becomes one”.
But we don’t just want you to listen to our collective story. We’re sharing our stories to inspire you to explore and articulate your collective story. Here’s how you can begin by discussing these three questions with your partner:
- How has your upbringing and experiences influenced the way that we view money?
- What are some differences and similarities in your money stories?
- What compromises have you made or do you need to make in your collective story?
Practically, there are heathy practices that you can adopt together as a couple to help you be more cohesive and united with your management of money.
- Regular check-ins on your budgets and bank accounts
- Transparent with your income and expenses
- Open communication with each other – willing to be transparent and talk about money and to not avoid it
