MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode
We all like to think that love transcends all other issues, especially that of money.    But our BELIEFS about money say a lot about what we value, our fears, and dictate the way we choose to live every day.   Do you believe in saving every penny? Would you stay in a fancy hotel on a vacation? How would you feel if your partner bought themselves an expensive car without talking to you first?   In this episode, Matt is joined by money expert Ramit Sethi (host of the hit podcast “I Will Teach You To Be Rich”) to discuss how money affects our relationships and how we can have a healthier partnership when we have better communication and control around the topic of our finances. --- Join my Virtual Retreat before January 31st and get $200 off your ticket + some amazing limited time bonuses!
