Couples and Money: How to Stop Waiting for Your Partner to Get on Board","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":1199,"description":"Are you waiting for your partner to get on board before you fully step into your financial life?\nWhat might shift if you stopped waiting—and started leading your own transformation?\nWhat if the thing holding you back financially isn’t your partner—but the belief that you need them to change first?\nIn this episode, I share a perspective that can feel both confronting and incredibly freeing: waiting for your partner to get on board with money work is a limiting pattern.\nI walk through why making someone else the reason you can’t move forward is one of the sneakiest ways we give our power away—and how this pattern is often rooted in our own survival wiring.\nWe explore what’s actually possible when you take full ownership of your relationship with money, regardless of what your partner is or isn’t doing. Because the truth is, you don’t need your partner’s buy-in to create meaningful financial change.\nAnd at the same time, I also share how powerful it can be when couples do come into alignment—not through pressure or ultimatums, but through invitation, embodiment, and trust.\nThis episode is really about shifting from waiting… to leading. From needing external permission… to reclaiming your own agency.\nBecause when you change your relationship with money, it doesn’t just impact you—it has the potential to transform the entire dynamic of your relationship.\n“Waiting for your partner to get on board is a limiting money pattern.” –Kate Northrup\n“Anytime we make someone else the reason we can’t have what we want, we are giving our power away.” –Kate Northrup\n🎤 Let’s Dive into the Good Stuff on Plenty 🎤00:00 Introduction to Plenty and Relaxed Money\n02:32 You Don't Need Your Partner to Do the Work\n04:59 Waiting for Your Partner: Limiting Patterns and Secondary Gain\n07:17 Meeting Your Edge: Practices, Sequencing and Nervous System Work\n09:37 Couples' Success Stories and Program Benefits\n13:15 How to Invite Your Partner Without Pushing\n14:19 Practical Conversation Steps and...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/o03JRta_QRrWYpVnGEniH9ofqOD9uyABk7kkXvT0B_E/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ1MzMzLzE2OTUz/ODkwNzQtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
