Negotiating financial terms is one of the most stressful parts
of a divorce settlement. Understand your "money story" so you don't
get angry - or get taken. This episode will help you learn why
money is such a hot button in a divorce, define your money story
and set yourself on course to reach agreement, work out a fair
divorce settlement with a new mindset, and transform your
relationship to money following divorce.
Key Points:
- Understand the underlying concerns, needs, fears, and desires
that drive our beliefs about money.
- Avoid short-sighted or destructive decisions by becoming aware of
your personal money beliefs and motivations.
-Be prepared for potential pitfalls and conflicts with your
newfound awareness.
-Hear about how people like you have transcended money beliefs to
achieve the life they want on their terms.
