A caretaker is someone who uses their time, money, or energy to assist their immediate family members, friends, or colleagues.  Are you always stepping up to meet the needs of those around you?  Do you support a spouse or partner by working a lot or in a job you don’t enjoy so they can pursue a hobby or dream job? If you ask yourself often, but “What would they do without me?” If so, you may fall pretty high on the spectrum of caretaker tendencies. As financial coaches, we sometimes have to coach our clients to balance their caretaker tendencies with taking care of themselves and their own finances. We support people to give, but in ways that don’t cause stress on their health or finances.  In this episodes of the Fiscal Fitness Podcast, learn: What care taker tendencies are How they show up How to balance the need and desire to help with your own financial goals Ways to flex your non-caretaker muscles
