Description

This week we meet Grace, a 46-year-old single mother from Northern Arizona who is struggling to set boundaries with her siblings who continue to borrow money from her without paying it back. To help Grace find a way to hold onto her money--without jeopardizing her relationships with her family--Stefanie interviews Marsha Barnes, founder of The Finance Bar, a company dedicated to helping people achieve financial wellness.

Money Confidential, a new podcast from Real Simple, explores the many aspects of money: making it, saving it, investing it, giving it, spending it and—sometimes, hardest of all—talking about it. Each week, Stefanie O’Connell Rodriguez, a nationally recognized money expert, delves into your (confidential) money problems and delivers smart, practical, and completely doable solutions that will help you work toward your ultimate financial goals. She cuts through the confusion of investing beyond your 401(k), eases the overwhelming pressure of paying off student debt while saving for the future, and even tackles the stress that comes with mixing money and relationships (Is it really OK to keep money secrets from your partner?!). This is the place to come for real talk about money—and real solutions that actually work.
