What do conversations about money and sex have in common in your relationship?

Do conversations in your relationship about money, and conversations about sex, have a similar uncomfortable vibe? This is common for many couples because there can be a lot of societal and personal fears and misunderstandings around these topics.

On the new Sage Money Conversations podcast, I got the opportunity to talk about all the ways that money conversations are similar to sexual conversations!

For example, we discussed:
-The similarities between money and sex and why they are so difficult to talk about.
-How discussions around both money and sex require emotional vulnerability.
-How couples can reduce awkwardness in money and sex conversations and build skills.
