    Open Yun Opinion S01E09: How Couples Split Expenses

    In this episode of the Open Yun Opinion podcast, we delve into how couples split expenses. It can be a tricky subject for many couples, whether they are newly dating or have been together for years. We discuss different methods for splitting expenses, such as dividing them equally based on income or who pays for what. We also explore the importance of communication and setting boundaries regarding relationships' finances. Disagreements over money can strain relationships. Couples with different views on managing finances may struggle to split expenses and argue over even the smallest expenses. These arguments can lead to resentment and frustration and, in some cases, damage the relationship. Couples should communicate their financial goals, values, and expectations openly to avoid these pitfalls and maintain a healthy relationship. Trust issues and power imbalances can arise if two people cannot find common ground. To prevent this, couples need to work together and find a way to manage their finances that works for both of them. Join us as Debbie and Jazmin navigate this common issue and provide helpful tips for couples navigating their finances together.

    Open Yun Opinion S01E07: The Process of Achieving with Coach Rob

    Understanding the difference between "success" and "achievement" can help you on your path to personal growth and satisfaction. While success is accomplishing a specific goal, achievement is mastering a skill or reaching a significant milestone. Tangible outcomes often measure success, while achievement is more personal and subjective. Both are equally valuable and important in your journey toward your aspirations. Our guest, Robert Velhagen, tells Jazmin his proven steps in unlocking achievement. These steps were the very ones he learned as he got knocked out and rose victorious in life. Coach Rob, as called by his mentees, learned via experience. He enumerates the four steps in the process of achieving: decide, learn, do, and persist. Learn more about it in this episode of Open Yun Opinion.   Link Page: ⁠https://lnkj.in/p/openyunopinion⁠ YouTube: ⁠http://youtube.com/@OpenYunOpinion⁠ Spotify: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/2vmQrZPLWR6wZs5FU6aPzh⁠ Apple Podcast: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/open-yun-opinion/id1692365217⁠   Robert Velhagen Facebook https://www.facebook.com/coachrobvelhagen Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/robvelhagen/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@coachrob   0:00:20            Introduction            0:01:40            Becoming a coach 0:02:50            Achievement VS Success       0:05:20            Steps in "The Process of Achieving"              0:07:23            Decide              0:10:40            Take action and "do" to achieve their goals 0:12:40 Persistence and resilience throughout "The Process of Achieving"?                               0:16:40            Common obstacles and challenges in "The Process of Achieving" 0:21:25            Timeline or plan to achieve goals 0:25:40           When to consider having an achievement coach? 0:29:52            Advice for viewers ⁠ #achievement #OpenYunOpinion #processofachievement #achievementvssuccess #success #goals #achieve #achieveyourgoals #CoachRob #RobertVelhagen #jazminated #achievegoals #achievementcoach
