Kat and Geo have been married for two and a half years, have three sons, and are living paycheck to paycheck. They say they make everything work but can’t seem to make their money work for them. Their bad communication doesn’t help either. While Kat likes to talk things through, Geo shuts down when they talk about money. Can Financial Advisor, Misty help them communicate better and make the changes they need?

Together they have a combined income of $55k, $60k in debt and $3k/month in expenses. Kat works part-time and just got certified in microblading to start her own beauty business. Geo holds on to the past and often gets stuck on how to think about money in a way that’s not greedy. But his mindset is holding him back from making money decisions that’s mindful for the whole family.

Misty suggests they open a joint bank account and create a budget together. She said they both need to know how much money will go into that account and discuss their budget regularly. She also suggested that Geo practices mindfulness and lets go of the past to not perpetuate bad feelings from past mistakes. For Kat, she suggests practicing time blocking to work on her business. Will Kat and Geo be able to implement Misty’s suggestions and make better money decisions for themselves and their family? Watch the full episode of Heartbroke.
