"As a couple, we struggled to communicate about money, which caused alot of tension in our relationship. Shay helped us bridge our individual perspectives to create a joint blueprint in setting our financial goals. We now have something to focus on together that challenges us and we have learned to make it fun. We look forward to our Financial Date nights but I'm definitely winning at finding cheap dates, my husband can't keep up."
