Talking Money with Your Partner (or Family): Avoiding Financial Fights


Listen Later

Talking about money isn’t always easy—but it is essential. In this episode of The About Podcast, Jeremy Scott and Roy Hucke break down why finances are one of the top sources of conflict for couples and families, and how open communication can completely change the game.


Whether you're newly engaged, newly married, blending families, or simply trying to get on the same page with someone you love, this conversation digs into:

  • Why money is such an emotional topic
  • How your childhood shapes your financial mindset
  • The importance of knowing your financial values
  • How to have honest conversations without judgment
  • When and how to get “financially transparent” (yes—financially naked!)
  • Why shared goals matter more than identical habits
  • How couples can align around budgets, priorities, and long-term plans


You’ll also hear real stories from Jeremy’s premarital counseling sessions and Roy’s work with engaged couples who are just starting their financial journey together. From managing debt to merging budgets to figuring out who handles the bills, this episode is packed with practical insight and plenty of laughs along the way.


If you want fewer fights and more clarity around money in your home, this one’s for you.
