    Ep 131: Is Car Debt Really Debt?

    For many of us, owning a car with monthly payments feels as normal as paying rent or utilities. It’s just how people buy cars, right? But what if accepting this as the norm is actually holding us back from financial freedom? Car loans, often touted as manageable “good debt,” are still debt. They tie up our income month after month, sometimes for years, in exchange for a rapidly depreciating asset. It’s time to challenge this mindset and explore a path to car ownership that doesn’t involve life-draining payments. Tune in to this episode to hear about how we navigated vehicle purchases and what it could be costing you to keep them long-term.       Our website: www.forbetterandworth.com Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung

    Ep 130: Love in Transit: Juggling Work Travel and Relationships

    Work travel isn’t easy on any relationship. Being apart meant missing daily routines together, the spontaneous laughter, the small but significant little things that bind a family. In our early days, it felt like two lives moving in parallel, connected yet separate. Now, after years of learning, growing, and adjusting, we've weathered every phase of work travel together. It took time, growing pains, and intentional effort, but we’ve figured out ways to keep our relationship solid, no matter how many miles apart or what time zones we are in. Whether you’re traveling for work, or holding down the fort at home, listen to this week's episode to hear the strategies that have helped us stay connected.       Our website: www.forbetterandworth.com Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung

    Ep 129: Did We Succumb to the Beyonce Effect?

    If there's one thing that consistently shakes up decision-making, it’s Beyoncé. Her name alone seems to create a gravitational pull strong enough to draw in even the most calculated among us.  We talked all about this phenomenon in a recent podcast episode, The Beyonce Effect, where we explored how Beyoncé’s sheer influence impacts everything from ticket sales to big life choices.  But now, it’s time for a follow-up. The question is, did we fall under her spell and use the free Bey concert tickets that landed in our laps?       Our website: www.forbetterandworth.com Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung

    EP 128: Do We Renovate or Wait?

    In this episode, we dive into a question that’s been on our minds for a while now—should we renovate our bathrooms? It’s not just about tiles, fixtures, or a fresh coat of paint. It’s about balancing finances, finding peace of mind, and nurturing the home we’ve built, both physically and emotionally. If you’re considering a big renovation project or feeling stuck a the decision-making process, tune in as we break down our thoughts and weigh our options. While we don’t have all the answers yet, we hope our journey sparks some clarity for your own situation.     Our website: www.forbetterandworth.com   Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung

This is proof that you can find inspiration in unexpected places.  Tune in to hear our insights about the show and how it relates to achieving any financial goal.       Our website: www.forbetterandworth.com Get Ericka's book, Naked and Unashamed: 10 Money Conversations Every Couple Must Have Check out our local TV spotlight Connect with us: Instagram: @forbetterandworth YouTube: @forbetterandworth Ericka: @erickayoungofficial Chris: @1cbyoung
