Parenting and Finances - Reducing Stress to Increase Joy with Ryan Johnson - S7 E86
Episode description
Everything changed when our son entered the world almost 3 years ago. We moved to a new state, launched a business, and my wife (who originally never wanted kids) decided to stay home. We now have 2 kids (our youngest, a daughter, just turned one).
I'm excited to share parts of my own experience becoming a parent and why those early years completely reshaped how I think about money, stress, and family life. My mission now is to help parents feel more grounded and confident in their financial world so they can be more present with the people who matter most.
I work with families in their 30s and 40s who are juggling careers, childcare, saving, and the constant pressure to “get everything right.” I’ve seen how money stress quietly drains joy and energy from the home, and I believe clarity is one of the most powerful gifts we can give ourselves (and our kids).
My work focuses on simplifying decisions, removing guilt and overwhelm, and helping parents align their money with the life they’re trying to build. If you’ve ever felt behind, unsure, or stretched thin, my goal is to show you that you’re not alone, you’re not failing, and there’s a clearer way forward.
I run a solo financial planning firm focused on high-earning parents ($200k+ per year).
