The Emotional Side of Money with Ed Coambs, CFP
Manage episode 364174097 series 3471748
We’re joined by Ed Coambs, a Certified Financial Planner and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who owns a company offering Therapy-Informed Financial Planning™ for couples.
We start our conversation talking about financial intimacy and getting "financially naked" with our partners. We discuss the importance of talking about childhood money memories and how even our early experiences with siblings impact later romantic relationships.
Ed explains the four attachment styles and how your style may impact your behavior with money, your reaction to your partner’s behavior, and decisions around combining money as a couple.
Later, we learn about the emerging field of financial therapy. Ed tells us how it differs from both financial planning and traditional therapy, before explaining his practice of Therapy-Informed Financial Planning ™.
We close by addressing the way internalized gender expectations around money can impact straight couples, and Ed uses his personal story to illustrate the contradictory feelings straight men can have when their wives earn more.
