Marriage and Money with Cynthia Meyer

Real Life Planning Podcast

In this episode of Real Life Planning Podcast, I will talk about the relationship between money and marriage. When couples get married, they expect that their marriage will be a romantic and spiritual partnership, and for many couples, a parenting partnership. However, one thing couples often overlook is that marriage is also an economic partnership. How can you achieve financial harmony with your spouse and use that synergy to build financial independence? I share stories from my own marriage as well as wisdom learned from working with couples as a financial planner.
The Real Life Planning Podcast is a 25-30 minute interview/conversation recorded in both audio and video. In each episode, our host, Cynthia Meyer, sits down with amazing people who share their real life stories of how they are realizing their financial potential.

The Real Life Planning Podcast aims to provide:

• 1-3 practical, realistic takeaways of actions the listener can try
• Encouragement to learn from different paths to creating results
• Possibility and optimism
