Money in Marriage: It's a Matter of Value with Shaunti Feldhahn

What would you call a marriage where spouses see “eye to eye” about money? Some might call it bliss.It's true that most couples at least occasionally quarrel about their finances. But could a better understanding of each other's values help spouses avoid that bickering? Shaunti Feldhahn thinks so, and she joins us today to talk about it.Shaunti Feldhahn is a Harvard graduate, former Wall Street analyst, social researcher, best-selling author, as well as a prominent public speaker. She is the co-author of Thriving in Love and Money: 5 Game-Changing Insights about Your Relationship, Your Money, and Yourself with her husband, Jeff, and has written several books with him revealing impactful truths about relationships at home and in the workplace.A Lesson Learned Over DinnerShaunti and her husband, Jeff, learned this lesson early in their marriage. Living in New York, they often ate out due to their demanding schedules. However, a seemingly small issue—ordering a Diet Coke—would trigger recurring arguments. Jeff, concerned about their financial future and mounting student loan debt, saw the expense as unnecessary, while Shaunti viewed it as a simple enjoyment that enhanced her meal.It wasn't until years later, during their research for their book Thriving in Love & Money, that they realized their conflict stemmed from differing values. Jeff prioritized financial security, while Shaunti valued the experience and enjoyment of a meal. Once they uncovered this, they could better communicate and honor each other's perspectives.The Root of Money Conflicts in MarriageFinancial disagreements often arise because couples fail to recognize and respect each other's values. In Shaunti and Jeff's national study, they found that:67% of couples in financial conflicts believe their perspective is the logical one.Couples often perceive their spouse's spending habits as irrational simply because they prioritize different things.For example, one spouse might see value in spending money on a gym membership for networking and health benefits, while the other might believe household essentials from Costco are a better use of resources. The key takeaway? Neither perspective is wrong—both are rooted in deeply held values.The Power of CommunicationThe solution to money conflicts isn't just budgeting or financial planning; it's communication. It's crucial that couples discuss not just what they want to spend money on, but why it matters to them.By having open and honest conversations about financial priorities, couples can:Build mutual understanding and trust.Find compromises that respect both perspectives.Create a financial plan that aligns with their shared goals and values.While couples can work through these issues on their own, it can be very beneficial to seek guidance from financial advisors—especially those with a biblical perspective. Kingdom Advisors, for example, are trained to address not just the numbers, but the relational and spiritual aspects of money management.Advisors can help couples navigate tough conversations, align their financial goals with their values, and ultimately steward their resources in a way that honors God and strengthens their marriage.At the heart of every financial decision in marriage lies an opportunity—to foster unity rather than division. God cares just as much about the marriage as He does about the finances. By understanding and honoring each other's values, couples can turn money from a source of conflict into an instrument of peace and purpose.Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly PublicationTo dive deeper into this topic, read Shaunti Feldhahn's full article in the first edition of Faithful Steward, FaithFi's new quarterly publication.

I'm wondering if I should start converting some of that traditional IRA to a Roth IRA since I'll be required to take required minimum distributions (RMDs) when I turn 73.My husband is not a believer and doesn't believe in tithing; he thinks it's a scam.

239 Stories Series: Experiencing the Supernatural with Jackie Coleman   Genesis 50:20 + 21 (NIV) "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for you and your children.” And he reassured them and spoke kindly to them."   Questions and Topics We Discuss: Are you willing to share some of the supernatural happenings you experienced with you family and  your dad near the end of his life? Will you share a few of your God stories you've experienced through your daughter, Olive's medical journey? What are some recent things the Lord has been teaching you?   Jackie Coleman completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Georgia in 2005. She later earned an M.A. in Counseling from Richmont Graduate University and an M.Ed. from Harvard Graduate School of Education, where she was named an Urban Scholar. While in Boston, she worked as a bilingual Family Counselor for Youth Villages, and later launched the Transitional Living program, which is designed to assist at-risk youth aging out of state custody. While in Atlanta, she worked on marriage and family issues with Building Intimate Marriages and research and writing projects for best-selling author Shaunti Feldhahn.

Shaunti Feldhahn: How Being Kind Benefits You More Than The Recipient

I really appreciate taking a topic where we think we know what drives us, and discovering the motives are actually coming from somewhere else. It allows us to come into better alignment and realize more benefit. In this case, the concept is kindness. We think we should be kind because it's the right thing to do. And if we're kind, then others will reciprocate and be kind to us in return. It's usually under the “should” category of life. We “should” be kind. Especially to those we perceive as not so kind. Be kind to the person who cut you off in traffic. Be kind to the surly person behind the coffee counter. Be kind to your spouse who seems grumpy to you. When I'm interviewed on other podcasts, I'm often asked who some of my favorite guests have been or the most profound topics. I often cite Shaunti Feldhahn. Shaunti is a social researcher and best-selling author who investigates life-changing truths about relationships. I first got to know her through her book, “The Kindness Challenge – Thirty Days To Improve Any Relationship.” In it she uncovers that whether we thrive depends far more on how we choose to treat others than on how we ourselves are treated. The path to our happy place starts with one choice: whether or not to be kind. Especially when we really don't want to be. The punchline? Being kind benefits us far more than who we choose to be kind to. I had this conversation with Shaunti nearly seven years ago and here I am still talking about it today. As I keep bringing her message back up, I'm re-publishing our talk so you can hear Shaunti's full research. Find her at shaunti.com Got a comment or question about an episode?

The following is an encore presentation from 2023.Shaunti Feldhahn is a relationship expert and the author of several very helpful books about marriage, including Thriving in Love and Money.There's a saying about marriage: “When money troubles come in the door, love goes out the window.” But Shaunti has 3 steps for couples to keep that from happening.  3 STEPS TO ERASE TO AVOID FINANCIAL TENSION IN YOUR MARRIAGE1. ENSURE MARGIN: Make sure you have a cushion — some margin in your budget and finances. The Feldhahns conducted a three-year study involving a couple-thousand people. They found that no matter the income level, it wasn't the topline income number that mattered. The key to avoiding tension was to spend less than they took in. This was true across all demographics. You've got to have a cushion to be able to make that car repair or whatever life throws your way. It's great stewardship and helps keep you out of debt and bondage. But as it turns out, it's not just protective of your finances, but of your relationship as well. 2. COMMUNICATE: You have to be able to talk to your spouse about money. It can't just be a one-person thing. It must be BOTH of you, and you have to be able to openly and honestly communicate about money. Communication really is the secret weapon. Most couples have trouble communicating about money. It's a very common problem. But the Feldhahns found in their research that communication even trumps having a financial cushion or having the perfect budget. If you can talk about money, even if the technical stuff isn't perfect, you are far more likely to avoid tension and resentment. So start opening those lines of communication! It's vital! 3. BUILD AWARENESS: You have to understand what's going on underneath the surface and how you and how your spouse respond to money. Shaunti explains that if there is tension around money in your marriage, it's not really about the money. It's about how money makes you feel, and how it makes your spouse feel. It's about all of the insecurities and worries and beliefs about how money should work that are running under the surface. And we have two different sets of those. On today's program, Rob also answers listener questions: What are a couple of good options for online banking?How do you determine whether you should roll over an IRA? RESOURCES MENTIONED:Ally BankCapital One 360 CheckingMarcus Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
