In this episode of Her Money Revolution, Angela Brooks, CFP®, examines the powerful connection between MONEY and RELATIONSHIP—and why financial challenges are rarely just about dollars and cents.

While interest rates, budgets, and investment returns play a role in financial outcomes, Angela explains that most money-related tension stems from deeper issues such as values, expectations, emotional security, and past experiences. Drawing from her work as a certified financial planner and behavioral financial advisor, she shares insights into how financial harmony is built through communication, intention, and shared understanding rather than financial perfection.

This episode outlines five practical strategies to help couples and individuals create greater alignment around money. From establishing regular financial conversations to defining shared goals, to clarifying roles and preparing for unexpected life events, Angela provides a thoughtful framework for using money as a tool to strengthen relationships rather than strain them.

Whether you are navigating finances with a partner or building a healthy financial foundation on your own, this conversation offers clarity, perspective, and actionable guidance to support long-term financial and relational well-being.

In this episode of Her Money Revolution, Angela Brooks, CFP®, returns after a deliberate pause to share the clarity and direction that emerged from slowing down and reflecting at the start of the year.

Rather than approaching a new season with more hustle or louder goals, Angela explains why January became a time of prayer, journaling, and asking deeper questions—about purpose, alignment, and the true role money plays in our lives. She unpacks why money is never just about numbers, and how misalignment often shows up as stress, overwhelm, or a lingering sense of falling behind, even when we are “doing everything right.”

Angela introduces her word for 2026—PUSH—and reframes it not as pressure or grind, but as intentional forward movement rooted in clarity, faith, and conviction. Through personal reflection and real client experiences, she explores why momentum—not knowledge, discipline, or income—is often what’s missing when women feel stuck financially.

This episode sets the foundation for the evolving vision of Her Money Revolution: a more intentional, holistic, and values-driven approach to wealth. It is an invitation to step away from perfection, release guilt and shame around money, and build a financial life that supports the life you are called to live.

If you’re seeking a more thoughtful, holistic approach to wealth — one that supports your values rather than competes with them — this episode is for you.
