Why do married men tend to earn more, while women don’t see the same career boost? In this episode, I dive into the “marriage premium” backed by studies from the St. Louis Federal Reserve, Pew Research, and more, and break down why marriage often works like a career cheat code for men. From Olivia Pope’s truth bombs in Scandal to the real-life story of Big Eyes painter Margaret Keane, we’ll explore how women have historically been the hidden force behind success—without the recognition.

I’ll also share personal stories from my own life, funny Reddit takes, and cultural commentary that’ll make you laugh while you think. Spoiler: the guys yelling “she’ll take half!” usually only have about $3k in their bank account.

So grab your cafecito and tune in—we’re talking money, marriage, validation, and why women have always been their own biggest hype squad.
