Hey there, There’s this thing my husband and I do that I used to dread. I’d avoid it. Brush it off. Not ever bring it up. It wasn’t a blowout or a financial emergency. It was a quiet moment, years ago, in our tiny Shanghai apartment—just the two of us sitting on the bed, realizing we were making big life decisions together… without ever really talking about money. We didn’t have a financial vision, even though it shaped everything else. Back then, we didn’t call them money dates. But now? They’re a ritual. Sometimes it’s 10 minutes with a cup of tea. Sometimes it’s a walk. But those intentional check-ins— This week’s podcast episode is all about money dates—what they are, how to start, and why they matter so much, whether you’re single, partnered, or figuring it all out. 🎧 Episode: Want to finally feel confident about your money?
