One partner handles the money, the other looks away until that approach quietly creates risk. In this episode, Glenn breaks down why finances shouldn’t be treated like chores in a relationship, but more like parenting: shared responsibility, open communication, and a clear end goal. Using real-world analogies, he explains how couples can move past avoidance, align around what they truly want, and reduce the fear that often surrounds money conversations. The discussion explores budgeting, communication gaps, and why planning for survivorship changes how couples live and spend today.
