How Your Money Story Is Sabotaging Your Relationships with Thomas Blottenberger
In this eye-opening and transformative episode, Joel sits down with Thomas Blottenberger - financial advisor turned men’s mindset coach to reveal why most men are fighting the wrong battles… and how money becomes the mirror that exposes everything we haven’t dealt with.
Thomas spent years as a successful advisor on the outside, but a confused, reactive, and frustrated man on the inside - stuck in patterns formed in childhood, sabotaging relationships, and preaching financial discipline he wasn’t living himself. Today, he helps men stop fighting about money, rewrite their internal programming, and finally take ownership of their lives, marriages, and futures.
In this conversation, you’ll discover:
💥 How childhood money experiences silently shape your adult relationships
🔥 Why men feel the need to “perform” for love - and how it destroys connection
🧠 The difference between awareness and control (and how most people get trapped)
💰 Why traditional financial advice creates fear, rigidity, and small thinking
❤️ How Thomas transformed his marriage by taking radical responsibility
⚡ Why money problems are rarely about money - and what they actually reveal
If you’ve ever felt pressure to earn, frustration with money conversations, or stuck in cycles you can’t explain, this episode will shift how you see yourself, your partner, and your financial life forever.
