Today on ABQ Connect, we’re sitting down with Brian Cochran, President of John Moore Associates in Albuquerque, to talk about a powerful truth—money is never neutral. Every financial decision impacts both spouses, whether accounts are shared or separate, and especially for younger couples, the desire for independence can sometimes overlook how deeply connected marriage really is. Brian shares how money can become either a source of unity or division, and while financial stress is common, there’s hope—because healthy communication can be learned, strengthened, and rooted in a biblical perspective.
