Money is one of the biggest stressors in relationships, yet it’s often the most avoided conversation. From dating to marriage to divorce, financial conversations evolve, and knowing how to navigate them can make or break a relationship.
Join financial coach Elizabeth Michelle, marriage and divorce coach Kara Francis, and dating coach Lauren Fondriest for a candid panel discussion on how to talk about money at every stage of a relationship.
