Financial Self Care for Couples with Guest Amy Scott

Today’s guest on the Worth Listening podcast is Certified Financial Coach, author, wife, and mother Amy Scott. Amy is passionate about working with couples to help them get on the same page about money so they can live life with less conflict and more space to focus on what really matters. 

Amy has taught hundreds of couples her unique budgeting system over the last seven years to help them reduce financial stress and disagreements while allowing them to pursue dreams that had previously gone unfulfilled.

Self-care has become a popular topic over the last few years around our mental health, but self-care also applies to our finances. Amy shares about the tough financial decisions she and her husband made to begin living lives that aligned with what they really wanted. She shares practical tips that couples can use to practice financial self-care in their marriage and families.
