What if the most dangerous conversation in your marriage isn’t the one you’re having — it’s the one you’re avoiding?

In Episode 3 of the Thriving Partnership series, Jeff Gerhardt tackles the money conversation that entrepreneurial couples avoid most. He reveals why variable income, differing risk tolerances, and blurred lines between business and household wealth create hidden tension — and gives you a practical framework to fix it.

Jeff breaks money talks into three separate conversations every couple needs: Vision, Operations, and Risk. He shares personal stories from his entrepreneurial journey with Heather, practical prompts for date nights, the “oxygen mask” household floor, and why keeping these conversations distinct prevents arguments and builds trust.

If money creates friction, anxiety, or silence in your marriage, this episode will give you the clarity and tools to align financially and move forward together
