On ‘Life Quakes’, hosts Jessica Reyes, Patricia Wu, and guest therapist Joann ‘JoJo’ Venant gives advice to a viewer’s situation where her partner concealed a $50,000 debt as they prepare to be married.
Pause Before Reacting
While discovering hidden debt is a breach of trust, it’s important to approach the situation with empathy and seek to understand your partner’s reasons.
Root of the Problem Matters
Is the debt due to poor choices, a hidden addiction, or difficult circumstances beyond your partner’s control? Understanding the cause is essential.
It’s NOT Just About the Money
This secret is a betrayal. Before marriage, you need to address the trust issues this creates and how decisions will be handled as a couple going forward.
