Most couples don’t break up because of infidelity — they break up over money.
And worse? They never saw it coming.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the 5 biggest money mistakes that silently sabotage relationships… and how to actually fix them.

We’re joined by Heather and Douglas Bonaparth, the real-life couple behind the new book Money Together: How to Find Fairness in Your Relationship and Become an Unstoppable Financial Team. From navigating breadwinner role shifts, to recovering from resentment, to building a shared financial practice — they’ve lived it and now teach it.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why your childhood money stories matter more than you think
• The biggest mistake couples make with “fairness”
• What to do when one partner earns more (and tension builds)
• How to protect your relationship as life seasons change
• The money practice every couple needs — no spreadsheet required

Whether you’re dating, married, or running a business together, these insights will help you build a healthier relationship with both money and each other.

Are you walking blind when it comes to your finances?

In this episode, Jessica and Brandon are going back to basics because too many people are waking up to financial realities way too late. They're breaking down why it’s so dangerous not to know where your money is, how your bills are being paid, or even what accounts exist. Whether you're married, partnered, or handling things solo, this episode will give you the tools and mindset shift to take back control.

We cover:

• The hidden risks of not knowing how your household finances work
• Why women are disproportionately affected and how to change that
• What “financial visibility” actually means (and how to get it)
• The first steps to organize your bills, accounts, and debt
• Tools we personally use to track everything in one place
• What to do today to protect yourself and your family

This isn’t about shame. It’s about empowerment. Let’s help you build a financial system that works even if life doesn’t go according to plan.
