Love, Then Money episodes

  • Bumble & Bills - Meet Nick & Angela Part 1

    What I love about what I do is that every couple is different. Their origin stories are different. Couples meet all kinds of different ways. In classes, in offices, in the frozen section aisles of groceries store. Each has their own cute meeting story! Dynamics are also different. Some couples go on date nights every other week while others choose to lay out quality time by traveling. This holds true, as no surprise, for finances as well. Not all couples handle money the same way. Heck, not all PEOPLE handle money the same way.

    And, this brings us to our next couple, Nick and Angela.

  • In-Between the Sheets - Money & Anxiety

    Last week, we finished our sessions with Matthew and Leslie. Before we moving on the next couple, we talk about a topic that can help listeners and their partners with their money conservations and journeys. On today’s episode, we talk about anxiety in relation to money. Let’s be honest, not everyone has anxiety when it comes to money. It’s all dependent on your background and experiences. As we’ve learned in previous episodes, where you come from can shape how you think both money and finances. For those of us who do have anxiety toward money, I have a couple of tips and bits of advice to share.


    On next week's episode, we'll meet our new couple Nick and Angela.

  • The Security Seeker - Matthew & Leslie Part 3
    Leslie and Matthew don’t agree on everything. That is not a surprise. It’s part of the human condition and disagreements. And in my opinion, life would be boring. We wouldn’t grow at all if everybody just agreed with us all the time. Disagreements allow us to open our mind and think of other possibilities. But when it comes to relationships, money and the mixing of the two, agreements, compromises at least are necessary. And these compromises look different for everyone. They can be written, signed by the necessary parties, or put the handshake or not between friends. It also may look like what we are doing now, talking over Skype between screens trying to work through the conditions and factors that can help Matthew and Leslie come to agreement about their financial relationship and their marriage, and their corresponding roles. Remember, their homework was to write about how their money personalities meet their primary needs.

  • How to Have The Money Conversation - Matthew & Leslie Part 1

    Leslie was born in Dallas and she moved to Atlanta with her family when she was 10. She went to college in Boston at Brandeis University. She then came back to Atlanta and she actually one of Matthew's cousins. They one day ended up being at this cousin's Bar Mitzvah but they didn’t know each other and they didn’t even meet each other. Years later when they were both living in New York, they met and began dating. Leslie and Matthew then got married and moved to Atlanta. They have been married for almost 10 years.


    Matthew's financial role after he got married was to execute taxes and to consolidate their bank accounts and their checking accounts and credit cards. Some bills are usually set to go out at the beginning of the month and some after the middle of the month. He is always looking out for how they can optimize the bills. On the other hand, Leslie has been kind of the watchdog making sure that Matthew is doing what he's supposed to be doing. She helps double-check and second guess Matthew's role and believes that her role is to kind of calm him down a little bit when it comes to the light bulb burning for an extra hour.
