When couples fight about money but it's really about safety

My partner and I keep having the same fight about money but we're not actually fighting about money — we're fighting about feeling safe and neither of us knows how to say that without it sounding like we're blaming the other person for our anxiety. We grew up so differently around scarcity and abundance and we can't seem to bridge that gap.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two different relationships to security are colliding in the space where love meets practical life.
