#020 Money Planning Red Flags in Relationships – How to Fix a Money Plan That Isn’t Working
You and your partner created a money plan—but it’s not working the way you hoped. One of you may be sticking to it while the other isn’t, or unexpected expenses keep throwing things off. If money planning is causing tension instead of teamwork, this episode is for you.
Josee Mbamba, your Money Planning Coach at Green Wealth Legacy, shares 4 major red flags that show your plan needs work—and how to fix them so you can build a budget that brings you closer, not apart.
