Hi everybody, welcome to the women's dating and confidence podcast. My name is Amber, and today we're going to be talking about emotional responsibility in relationships.

Before we get into that, I want to share with you my free guide called copy and paste texts for when he's pulling away or acting flaky.

The link for that is going to be in the show notes of this episode. Also, if you're interested

in working together and learning more about my coaching program, check out the link in the show

notes, depending on where we're at with our enrollment cycle. You can either get on the wait list

for the next coaching program or enroll right away. So what we're at with our enrollment cycle, you can either get on the wait list for the next

coaching program or enroll right away. So what we're talking about today is emotional responsibility

in a relationship, which leads to an emotionally wealthy relationship. So the metaphor that we're

going to be referring to today is financial responsibility,

which is also something that you may look for in a partner. In the same way that financial

responsibility leads to wealth, financial wealth, emotional responsibility leads to emotional

wealth, both in your friendships and in

your romantic relationships. So let's just first define what we would consider a financially

responsible person to be like. Because if you make, let's say, what a lot of people would consider a lot of money, like $300,000

per year in the U.S., in Kansas, or wherever, wherever, if you make $300,000 a year somewhere,

and you spend $300,000 per year. You are not financially responsible or wealthy.

And if you make $300,000 per year, but you spend $500,000 because you care about getting a car that you can't afford in a house you can't

afford and clothes you can't afford to impress people, then you are also not financially

responsible or wealthy because you spend as much or more than you actually earn. So in this situation, while there's a lot of

potential for financial wealth, the potential is not actualized because the person is not

financially responsible. So similarly, we want to think about this in terms of creating emotional

wealth in our relationship.
