Welcome to the Modern Husbands podcast, where any combination of Dr. Bruce Ross, Christian Sherrill, and Brian Page host national experts who share winning ideas to manage money and the home as a team.
I’m Brian Page, founder of Modern Husbands. Sometimes our listeners want more support than a podcast can give, individual or couple support, which I provide as a Certified Financial Therapist, Accredited Financial Counselor and Fair Play Facilitator. Details can be found at modernhusbands.com.
Today we welcome Dr. Megan Ford and Dr. Christine Hargrove. Dr. Ford is the University of Georgia Director of the Love and Money Center, Certified Financial Therapist, and Licensed and Marriage Therapist. Dr. Hargrove is the Love and Money Center Assistant Director, UGA Clinical Assistant Professor, Certified Financial Therapist, and Licensed and Marriage Therapist.
For today’s episode, Dr. Ford and Dr. Hargrove share research on financial conflict, the emotional burden of day-to-day money management, and how roles like “bean counter” shape stress within relationships. The conversation also offers practical, research-backed strategies for couples and neurodivergent individuals to manage money with greater awareness, compassion, and teamwork. Enjoy the show.
