Money Together: Building Love, Equity, and Wealth Without Keeping Score
Description
Money and love don’t come with a rulebook—but they do come with plenty of emotions, power dynamics, and unspoken expectations.
In this episode of Everyone’s Talkin’ Money, I sit down with Heather and Douglas Boneparth, the husband-and-wife team behind the new book Money Together.
Heather, a lawyer-turned-writer, and Douglas, a nationally recognized financial advisor, share candid insights about the real challenges couples face when it comes to money—and how to turn those challenges into stronger, more equitable partnerships.
You’ll hear:
- Why “trust” isn’t enough when one partner disengages from money decisions.
- How caregiving and emotional labor factor into financial fairness.
- The biggest money missteps couples make (and how to avoid them).
- How to move from financial independence to true interdependence without losing yourself.
- Why “fair” doesn’t always mean “even”—and how to redefine equity when income levels differ.
- How to start money conversations earlier in dating to gauge compatibility.
- Practical ways to bring more joy and balance to your financial life as a couple.
If you’ve ever wondered how to merge love and money without resentment, hidden debt, or endless fights, this episode will give you the tools and inspiration to start building wealth together.
