More money, more problems? Says who? This week, we sit down with Investment Advisor, Co-Founder of Peak360 & Author of The Power of Enough: Finding Joy in Your Relationship to Money, Elizabeth Husserl for a conversation about money, and let's just say this episode is RICH. Elizabeth breaks down the reasons why money is still such a taboo subject, how childhood and family dynamics shape the way we spend, save, date (and argue) & why financial security and emotional safety are NOT always the same thing. We also talk about how to invest, identifying your “money archetype”, the pressure to constantly chase money and the societal effects of women who out earn men.

This week, Reverend Ken Daigle explores how shifting our consciousness around money moves us from scarcity to sufficiency. He addresses everyone listening, explaining how deep-seated beliefs often hold people back from living a life of true sufficiency. This talk was recorded live at Unity San Francisco on April 19th, 2026.
Money. It's one of the most charged topics we face—filled with hope, fear, judgment, and possibility. It can bring up questions of worth, security, freedom, and even identity. And for many of us, it's the place where our spiritual beliefs and our lived experience don't always seem to match. In this talk, drawn from Unapologetic Manifestation, we'll take an honest and compassionate look at our relationship with money. Not just what we have or don't have—but the beliefs, patterns, and unconscious scripts that shape how money shows up in our lives. Because the truth is, money is not just a financial issue—it's a consciousness issue. Guided by Rev. Ken Daigle, we'll explore how scarcity thinking takes root, how it keeps us stuck, and—most importantly—how to begin shifting into a deeper experience of sufficiency, alignment, and flow. This isn't about bypassing reality or pretending everything is fine. And it's not about magical thinking. It's about doing the real work—spiritually, emotionally, and practically—to transform your relationship with money from the inside out. Because when we change our consciousness, we change our capacity to receive, to circulate, and to create. And that's where true abundance begins.

In this special “girlfriend chat” episode, Caterina Rando invites you to look at your relationship with money and why women often don't talk about it enough, even though it's a major stress factor in business and life.

Caterina introduces seven stages of money in business, and asks you to identify where you are, how long you've been there, and what actions you'll take to progress. This episode is essential for any woman who wants to amplify her money confidence and her money savvy.
I am so excited to share this week's conversation with you. I had the joy and honor of being a guest on the Money, Manifestation, and Business podcast with my friend, former life coaching client, and brilliant coach Jamie Berman. We had a deep conversation about navigating money and manifestation in your relationships. And when I say manifestation, it's really just about managing different values and approaches, no matter what you're talking about with your partner. In this episode, Jamie and I dive into my Soul-Centered Communication framework — Solution-focused, Open-hearted, Uncomplicated, and Loving. We talk about stress cycles and how to recognize when you're in fight, flight, freeze, or appease mode. And we explore the concept of psychological safety and how to create it in your money conversations. This conversation is practical, strategic, and will shift how you approach not just money conversations, but all the harder conversations in your marriage. Here is the scoop on what's included — ✨ Episode at a Glance The Soul-Centered Communication framework: Solution-focused, Open-hearted, Uncomplicated, Loving Why our entire life happens inside of a conversation The three elements of connected conversations How to recognize stress cycles: fight, flight, freeze, appease Why someone saying "yes" but never following through is actually a stress response (not lying) What psychological safety is and why it matters in money conversations How the words we use create and inspire feelings and results The difference between "we have a problem" vs. "we have an opportunity" Why loving yourself equally matters in conversations about money Resources Mentioned In This Episode: The Questions for Couples Journal Private Coaching with Maggie Free Workshop: The Growth Gap Marriage Mindset Makeover The Money, Manifestation & Business Podcast with Jamie Berman

Is inflation silently stealing your time and purchasing power? In this episode, Wojciech Salski explores the powerful ideas behind Bitcoin, scarcity, and the nature of money inspired by the book Bitcoin: Everything Divided by 21 Million by Knut Svanholm. The conversation dives into how scarcity creates value and why the expansion of the money supply can lead to the opposite effect: abundance of money but scarcity of real goods. As governments and central banks increase the supply of currency, inflation erodes purchasing power and changes the way people save, spend, and plan for the future. We explore the concept of inflation as a “time thief,” where the value of saved money gradually disappears, effectively reducing the value of the time and effort people spend earning it. This leads to a system that encourages consumption rather than saving and long-term thinking. The episode also explains the Cantillon Effect, showing how those closest to money creation benefit the most from inflation, while others experience the loss of purchasing power. Understanding scarcity, money creation, and economic incentives helps explain why scarce digital assets like Bitcoin can maintain value over time. Beyond economics, the discussion touches on deeper philosophical ideas about time, entropy, and value. Time is ultimately the scarcest resource, and the way money functions in an economy directly shapes how people use it. Bitcoin's fixed supply of 21 million coins introduces a fundamentally different monetary system built on predictable scarcity. Finally, the episode explores how a world built on sound money could change saving behavior, reduce wasteful consumption, and encourage more thoughtful economic decisions. If you want to understand how inflation, scarcity, and Bitcoin intersect, this episode offers a thought-provoking exploration of money, value, and the future of the global economy.

Money is a hard topic for any couple, but in a blended family, it often carries even more weight. It's rarely just about numbers. It's about history, protection, prior commitments, loyalty, fear, values, and the future you're trying to build together.In this episode, we sit down with Brian K. Peterson to unpack why money conversations feel so loaded in stepfamilies, and how couples can approach them with more wisdom and unity. Instead of treating money like a scoreboard, Brian invites couples to ask a better question: What are we trying to build together? That shift can move you from conflict and anxiety toward collaboration and peace.You'll also hear why a unified financial vision matters, especially with child support, co-parenting stress, legal battles, and shifting seasons that can make stability feel fragile. Join us as we explore why unity isn't sameness, it's honoring each person's story while intentionally building a shared future. Brian is a husband, dad, and stepdad, and the founder of Blended Family Financial. He created the Planning Built for Life® process to help stepfamily couples move from financial tension to shared clarity and direction. He and his wife, Cara, are passionate about building strong blended families, and he's the upcoming author of Blended Family Finances: How to Talk About Money, Plan for the Future, and Build a Life You Love.If money has become a source of stress, silence, or disconnection in your relationship, this episode will help you slow down, get honest, and start moving toward a more intentional and united path.You'll Discover:Why money conversations feel more complicated in blended familiesHow fear, protection, guilt, and past experiences quietly shape financial decisionsWhat a unified financial vision is, and how it helps couples move from conflict to collaborationHow to think about legacy as something you live now, not just something you leave laterResources from this Episode:Get your FREE copy of Blended Family Finances (limited offer) by Brian K.

Who really controls the flow of oil, metals, and food around the world? In this episode, we explore the hidden world of commodity trading and the powerful traders who shape the global economy. Inspired by the bestselling book The World for Sale by Javier Blas and Jack Farchy, this conversation reveals how a small group of traders influence global markets, geopolitics, and financial systems. We discuss how commodity trading works, who the key players are, and why companies like Glencore, Vitol, and Cargill hold enormous economic power. The episode explores how these traders operate in high-risk environments, often navigating political instability and global crises to secure valuable resources. We also examine the four major global developments that transformed commodity markets: the opening of previously closed economies, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the rapid economic rise of China, and the growing financialization of global markets. Along the way, we explore how fear and greed drive markets, why traders often buy during times of crisis, and how financial instruments such as futures and options allow speculation on commodities without ever touching physical goods. If you want to understand how global markets really work - and how politics, finance, and natural resources intersect - this episode offers a fascinating look into one of the most influential yet secretive industries in the world economy.

In this episode of The Catholic Money Show, Jonathan and Amanda tackle one of the most common (and emotionally charged) issues in marriage: how to talk about money with your spouse without starting a couples war. Drawing from their own early money struggles and years of coaching Catholic couples, they unpack why these fights happen and how to prevent them.In this episode:Why wives are usually the ones pushing for financial change (and why husbands resist)How temperament (sanguine, choleric, melancholic, phlegmatic) affects money fightsThe importance of assuming good intent and choosing the right momentWhy a shared vision does more heavy lifting than any budget conversationHow to take one small step this week toward financial onenessShownotes & Resources
There are two sentences that can ruin a perfectly normal evening – “We need to talk”, and its evil twin, “We need to talk about money.” Even if your relationship is good, that phrasing makes it feel like somebody's about to get graded. Even when things are fine, nobody wants to be the person who turns a decent Tuesday night into a full relationship audit. So this week, we're introducing a better way: small doors. These are quick, low-stakes, real-life openings that normalize money talk without turning it into a whole thing.And the best part is, they're not just for couples. Small doors can be used with parents, siblings, friends, or any relationship where money differences create distanceWe get into:Why “we need to talk about money” is basically a panic alarm for most people, even if they're in good relationshipsThe difference between avoiding conflict and avoiding judgment, weirdness, and role shiftsWhy money conversations work better as appetizers than a full-day “financial summit”What “small doors” actually look like in real life (aka: our kid's expensive cherry habit

What's more romantic than roses and chocolate? How about not fighting about money. Joe Saul-Sehy and OG welcome Douglas and Heather Boneparth, the financial planning power couple who literally wrote the book on navigating money in relationships. Broadcasting from the basement (where love is patient and spreadsheets are kind), the crew dives into how people can build financial trust, avoid money secrets, and actually enjoy talking about dollars without it turning into a heavyweight title fight. Whether you're navigating finances with a romantic partner, a roommate splitting rent, an accountability partner keeping you honest, or a family member you're in business with, these principles apply. Because let's face it: our Stacker avatar isn't trying to impress Wall Street. You're trying to build a great life with the people who matter, without money becoming the thing that creates tension. Douglas and Heather break down what healthy financial communication really looks like, how to spot and prevent financial secrecy, and why shared goals matter more than perfectly matched spending styles.

What's more romantic than roses and chocolate? How about not fighting about money. Joe Saul-Sehy and OG welcome Douglas and Heather Boneparth, the financial planning power couple who literally wrote the book on navigating money in relationships. Broadcasting from the basement (where love is patient and spreadsheets are kind), the crew dives into how people can build financial trust, avoid money secrets, and actually enjoy talking about dollars without it turning into a heavyweight title fight. Whether you're navigating finances with a romantic partner, a roommate splitting rent, an accountability partner keeping you honest, or a family member you're in business with, these principles apply. Because let's face it: our Stacker avatar isn't trying to impress Wall Street. You're trying to build a great life with the people who matter, without money becoming the thing that creates tension. Douglas and Heather break down what healthy financial communication really looks like, how to spot and prevent financial secrecy, and why shared goals matter more than perfectly matched spending styles. They also tackle the tricky stuff: different money upbringings, emotional baggage around finances, and how to reset when conversations go sideways. And since this is the basement, you'll also get practical reminders about key financial deadlines (because nothing kills momentum like IRS penalties), smart ways to teach kids about money, and Doug's festive trivia to keep things light.

I talk about money a lot—and there's a reason for it.Money is the single biggest limiting factor in most people's lives, especially for consultants, coaches, and advisors who are doing meaningful work but still feel financially stuck. I didn't start with a trust fund or a straight path. I moved from teaching to consulting to entrepreneurship, and with every transition, my income and quality of life changed dramatically.In this episode, I break down why money isn't just about strategy—it's about transformation. It's about becoming the version of yourself who knows how to create cash flow, regulate their emotions when things get hard, and stay the course when uncertainty shows up. This is the work that actually creates freedom.If you want to make great money without burning out—or abandoning your values—this episode will change how you think about cash flow, confidence, and what's actually possible for you.And if you're ready to turn this mindset into real, consistent revenue, join me inside my free 30/30 Revenue Blueprint Workshop, where I'll show you how to land clients and build momentum in the next 30 days.Sign up here: https://www.chrisdonohoecoaching.com/the-30-30-revenue-blueprintRoyalty Free Music from Tunetank.com Track: Urban Legend by Musical Bakery https://tunetank.com/track/3362-urban-legend/
Episode 8: Ditch the 9–5, Break the Matrix & Let's Talk About Money (Without Having a Meltdown) Sooo… what if the 9–5 isn't the dream? What if it's just… the program?
One of the most powerful (and often unspoken) ways we shape our kids' relationship with money is through our own financial values and beliefs. The way we talk about money, how we feel about money and the habits we build around money ultimately become inherited by our children.In this solo episode, I reflect on the big hand we play as parents in creating our kids' money stories. I also explore what it looks like to model healthier financial skills with intention, clarity, and compassion—and why this work is as much a gift to ourselves as it is to the next generation.Modeling Healthy Money Skills for the Next GenerationOur kids look to us for guidance. They're always watching us, listening to us and absorbing everything we say and do, and it's no different when it comes to money. We're the ones teaching them and planting those seeds—whether we mean to be or not.The way we talk about money, react to stress, or make everyday decisions becomes the foundation of their financial narrative, shaping what they believe is normal, possible, or scary. That's why it's really important to stop and think about what we want to be modeling to our kids about money.Start by getting clear on your own values around money, including:What you want your kids to emotionally associate with money (stress, confidence, neutrality, joy).The beliefs you want to model around responsibility, self-sufficiency, generosity, and justice.When you become more intentional with both your beliefs and your emotions, you create space for open conversations, skill-building, and confidence—helping your children develop a relationship with money that feels grounded, empowered, and aligned with the life you want for them.Raising Money-Aware Kids in an Intentional WayLook for moments where everyday language and emotional reactions become powerful teaching tools. You'll notice how small shifts in awareness can transform money from a source of stress or silence into something you and your kids can talk about with honesty, clarity, and care.(00:06:45) Modeling Healthy Money Habits(00:08:01) Teaching Kids to Talk About Money(00:11:16) Navigating Emotional Reactions Around FinancesBuilding a Healthier Money Story at HomeYour words, reactions, and everyday habits quietly shape the money stories your kids carry into adulthood. By getting honest with your own values around money, you can model what you actually want to pass on to them, instead of defaulting to inherited beliefs or unconscious patterns. You'll also start to notice how emotional responses like stress, avoidance, or openness become powerful teachers, often more impactful than any formal lesson.This creates space to rethink money as a tool and a form of power that can be used responsibly and in alignment with your values. Ultimately, it's about giving your kids practical skills, emotional confidence, and a healthier relationship with money than many of us were ever taught.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

Money is one of the biggest sources of stress in modern relationships — especially when you're raising kids, building careers, and managing caregiving all at once.

You may be surprised to hear that billionaires get divorced at roughly the same rate as the general population, which demonstrates that no amount of money protects couples from the tension that can arise when finances are at play. Dr. Alexandra often says that money is a tricky topic because at one level, it is very concrete – dollars and cents, spending and saving. But at another level, the topic of money evokes deep and meaningful questions about our core beliefs, our sense of identity, our desires, and our insecurities. To help us explore all of this, Dr. Alexandra is joined by financial-planning power couple Douglas and Heather Boneparth. You will hear them talk about:why money continues to be a source of tension for couples, even after couples become objectively successful. “financial infidelity”, the role shame plays with it, and the Boneparths' case for financial transparency in your relationship. how to get past the tangible, more surface-level topics around money to curiously dig deeper and explore why you and your partner feel the way you do about money (and spoiler alert: that story started being written long long ago!). how to approach prenups.Resources worth mentioning from the episode:Money Together: How to find fairness in your relationship and become an unstoppable financial team by Heather and Douglas Boneparth https://bookshop.org/p/books/money-together-how-to-find-fairness-in-your-relationship-and-become-an-unstoppable-financial-team-douglas-boneparth/273465fcc086fc3dSubscribe to The Joint Account newsletter: https://www.readthejointaccount.com/Learn more about The Boneparths: https://domoneytogether.com/Continue the conversation with Dr. Alexandra Solomon:Ask a question!

But he has such a gift for helping us recognize the stories and wounds that are shaping our efforts to be good stewards now.So whether you're thinking about end-of-year giving or hoping for a fresh start in the new year, we hope this conversation helps you feel more grounded in your values and more empowered to live—and give—from that place.If you want more of Carl's insights, definitely check out his podcast 50 Fires—it's full of honest, thought-provoking conversations about money with really fascinating guests, and his new book, Your Money: Reimagining Wealth in 101 Simple Sketches.

According to Ramit Sethi, a personal finance author and coach, a lot of couples get stuck bickering about everyday purchases. If you're hung up on what's in the cart at Target, or who's buying too many iced teas on the way to work, Sethi says you're missing the bigger picture, and a chance to live what he calls a truly “rich life” together. Sethi is the author of “I Will Teach You To Be Rich” and “Money for Couples.” He has a podcast, also called “Money for Couples,” and was host of the Netflix show “How to Get Rich.” On this episode of Modern Love, Sethi fields questions from listeners who want to have more constructive, and less tense, money conversations. He also explains how a little curiosity and compassion can help couples through emotional processes like merging their financial lives, disclosing their debts, and mapping out their dreams for a shared future.
