How does financial abuse silently infiltrate relationships, and what can be done to combat it?
In this eye-opening episode of the Healing Through Love Podcast, host Sharlene Lynch sits down with Michael de Haan, a seasoned financial planner turned certified money coach and accredited Financial Abuse Specialist. Michael sheds light on the pervasive issue of financial abuse in Australia, where 1 in 6 women and 1 in 13 men experience economic abuse by an intimate partner. (IGTO)
Drawing from over two decades in financial planning, Michael discusses how financial abuse often serves as a control mechanism in relationships, frequently preceding other forms of abuse. He emphasizes the importance of early detection and education, not only for potential victims but also for financial service providers who can play a crucial role in identifying and supporting those affected.
Listeners will gain valuable insights into:
- Recognizing the subtle signs of financial abuse
- Understanding the impact of financial control on victims
- Strategies for reclaiming financial independence
- The role of financial institutions in preventing abuse
Michael also shares resources and support pathways available for victims, aiming to empower individuals to take control of their financial wellbeing. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the dynamics of financial abuse and how to foster a supportive environment for those affected.
