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.
