We’ve all heard them — the money “truths” that sound wise… but actually keep us stuck.

In this episode, we’re taking on five of the most common financial myths that many couples (and let’s be honest, even we at times!) believe — and we’re breaking them down one by one. If you’ve ever felt restricted by a budget, scared to invest, or like it’s too late to fix your finances, this episode is for you.

We’re busting myths like:

🚫 “If we budget, we’re being restrictive.”

🚫 “Investing is too risky—we should just save.”

🚫 “We’ll start saving when we earn more.”

🚫 “It’s too late to fix our finances.”

🚫 “Combining finances means losing independence.”

Instead, we’ll show you:

✅ Why budgeting actually gives you more freedom

✅ How saving without investing can cost you in the long run

✅ Why waiting to save until you earn more is a trap

✅ That it’s never too late to start moving forward

✅ And how combining finances can actually strengthen trust — not erode it

Whether you’re just starting out or have been managing money for years, this is the refresh you didn’t know you needed.
