Summary
"Money touches every aspect of our lives and colors our interactions with others. If we don't get our relationship with money right, our relationships with others hardly stand a chance." ~ Jonathan and Amanda Teixeira
Boy do we have a treat for you! One area in which we have always been hesitant to talk about is family finances. But we figured, when you know what you are not good at, you outsource! This is why we are bringing in Jonathan and Amanda Teixeira, founders of WalletWin, a financial-success program and podcast that help everyday Catholics get intentional with money. In 2012, they were $24,500 in debt, but in less than eight months, they had paid off all their loans and closed the doors on debt forever. Since kicking debt to the curb, they've focused on saving, investing, and giving, and they're now teaching others how to do the same. We have found their advice to be very balanced and helpful to couples who desire to learn how to work together and manage their money in a way that brings peace and stability to their home. Listen into this crucial conversation!

| 0:28.7 | Advent. It is the first Monday of Advent, I believe. If you're listening to this as it's released, |
| 0:34.6 | this is the first Monday of Advent. If you are listening later, |
| 0:37.5 | what are you doing? It's probably still Advent. If you're listening later, you're panicking |
| 0:42.6 | because you have missed the first Monday. People don't think about Advent until Advent Sunday. |
| 0:48.5 | Yeah, except people, at least we should say for ourselves, we didn't really ever think about Advent |
| 0:53.3 | until we started this |
| 0:55.0 | ministry. And then we were like, oh, we have to like help other people get ready. What? And so we, |
| 1:00.6 | actually, that's exactly what we did. And so it's, it's now been. Hey, as we say, guys, this ministry is |

| 1:13.9 | this, this nonprofit organization, this ministry full time, four years ago, which is pretty crazy, |
| 1:20.2 | we actually, one of the first things that we offered for those who helped support us was an Advent |
| 1:26.2 | kit. We put into this little kit, this little box, all the things that a family would need to |
| 1:32.2 | celebrate Advent. |
| 1:33.2 | Because I felt like there was all of these feast days and celebrations and traditions |
