      • Relationships & Money

        Did you know...

        Nearly half of Americans (48%) who are married or living with a partner say they argue with their partner over money?

        Money is a taboo subject, thanks to society, and it's time we talk about why! My good friend and fellow podcaster, Professor Liquid (of Liquid Wisdom Podcast), and I have an open conversation about why money is such a difficult subject for many. PLUS we tackle some roadblocks that some of us may endure in our current relationships.

        A recent study shows that couples who argue about finances at least once a week, are 30 times more likely to get divorced.

        TUNE IN NOW to join the conversation!

        We will be taking money questions for our future episodes, so email us at [email protected] to submit your question!
