I'm In Debt, Does My Partner Really Need...

Shari Rash, Money Podcast for Women, Personal Finance, Relationships & Mental Health
About this episode

Does this podcast episode resonate with you? I can't tell you how many times I'm asked this question and the answer is always more complicated than you might think - but, it always end up with a yes.

There are lots of things to hide from your partner - your secret mac and cheese addiction and the fact that you really don't like to work out. However, when it comes to debt, honesty is the name of the game. (I promise you it's not that scary).


On This Podcast Episode:

A recent question to the podcast prompted this episode, but I have a feeling a lot of the listeners are wondering the same question. On this episode we're tackling this question and I'm offering guidance on why you should always talk about debt.

  • Learn how to figure out the right time (and way) to talk about debt
  • Understand why disclosing debt is super duper important
  • Find out how to set boundaries with your partner around debt
  • Take a listen to my own story about talking about debt in a relationship
  • Have a lightbulb moment and come to peace about this scary question
