Join your hosts Katherine and Shelbi for an open dialogue on how our individual and personal finances play a role in the shared experience of friendship, from career choices and partnerships to bachelorette parties and the dreaded birthday dinner.

Money Moves 101

Our first experiences with perceiving our own and others’ money situations often happen in childhood, with memorabilia like custom NikeID Shox serving as their form of (social) currency

From high school jobs to careers in our 30s, people's various journeys can paint a picture of how people prioritize money

There’s importance in paying more attention to our means and spending values than comparing them to what others seem to have

Envy and Money are Different Shades of Green

Help and resources that people receive (or don’t receive) often go beyond just financial support, but that’s frequently overlooked when people compare their situations

The opportunity to learn and apply insights from curiosity about others’ money journeys

Showing up on friends’ big (and expensive) days like weddings and bachelorette parties and spending quality time with them can often feel like very different financial and emotional experiences

Family Dinner Vibes

Thinking through the emotional and more tactical elements of dual-income households, single life, and community in a society that builds social norms around partnership.

Normalizing casual hosting moments with friends to help each other meet our basic needs and share fulfilling times

Debating if homemade ice cream parties are in our future or not!

Question of the Week:

How do you feel like your finances influence or don’t influence how you interact and spend time with friends, with the warmer weather coming up, how do you think you can change that? What new things can you add to your rolodex and how can you be creative with the time you spend with people?
