    S6 Ep3: Identifying Financial Abuse in Partner Relationships

    Domestic abuse isn’t just physical—it can also shatter a person’s financial stability. Financial abuse often goes unnoticed, yet it deeply impacts victims by limiting access to money, sabotaging financial independence, and creating lasting economic dependency. It’s a hidden form of control that can affect anyone, regardless of income or background. In this episode, we dive into this critical yet under-discussed issue. Tejeswi Dodda, Maitri’s Self-Sufficiency Coordinator, engages in an insightful conversation with Ariadne Horstman, a certified financial planner. Together, they share essential financial knowledge and practical tools to empower you to protect yourself and others from the devastating effects of financial abuse. Tune in to this important discussion and learn how to reclaim financial independence and resilience. ----------------------------------- ARIADNE HORSTMAN, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ Appreciate Finance was founded in 2015 to help individuals and families realize personal goals and dreams through comprehensive financial planning and investment management.
