Julie and her husband make good money and have combined their finances, but talking about spending decisions almost always ends in frustration and fighting. She manages the budget and feels like she’s constantly stuck playing the “bad guy” while her husband would rather avoid the conversation altogether.

In this coaching session, I help Julie rethink how she approaches budgeting with her husband. Instead of trying to force another budget conversation, we focus on understanding what actually motivates him, creating a shared vision for their future, and using the budget as a tool to help both of them get more of what they want.

In this episode, we cover:
- Why getting your spouse “on board” starts with vision—not the budget
