48. “My husband needs a better job, but he hates the idea of earning more”

48. “My husband needs a better job, but he hates the idea of earning more”

Kara and Sean make $150k annually, with $100k of that coming from Kara’s salary in healthcare. They have a baby daughter, and Kara would like to take a step back in her career in order to spend more time with her. The problem is, Sean’s happily (and hopelessly) stuck in a dead-end job. What do you do when one partner is passive when it comes to money? It’s so easy to make things personal, to escalate and unravel, but I steer this conversation to the numbers—where it’s illustrated, plain as day, what Sean needs to do. But will he see it? And if he does, will he actually make any changes? Let’s see if I can get Sean to start dreaming bigger.
