Announcing the release of, “Coupleship Inc: From Financial Conflict to Financial Intimacy.”
Through the lens of IFS/part work, authors Debra Kaplan and Rick Kahler, provide readers a unique perspective to understand their own and their partner’s emotions about money.
We write, "A romantic relationship is one of the most important emotional—and financial—decisions we ever make. When partners commit, they merge their individual relationships with money to form a complex emotional and financial partnership, which we call Coupleship Inc."
Couples will:
· Identify the unconscious beliefs driving financial decisions that seem illogical.
· Turn self-defeating beliefs and behaviors about money into healthier behaviors that build and financial intimacy.
· Develop compassion for their internal “companies” of well-intentioned inner parts.
· Learn effective skills to turn arguments into constructive conversations.
The book is available for purchase on and all online booksellers.
