What’s the real cost of unpaid labour, emotional load, and being the ‘nice girl’ in a relationship? In this fiercely eye-opening episode, author Melissa Browne blows the lid off the money myths holding women back. From the dangerous mindset of “it’s not worth her going back to work” to why 7 out of 10 men manage long-term investments for control, this conversation is packed with jaw-dropping stats, empowering reframes, and financial red flags every woman needs to know. Melissa shares practical advice on retirement savings splitting, negotiating unpaid labour, protecting yourself before and during relationships, and the truth about why investing is never selfish. If you’ve ever felt uneasy talking money in your relationship, this episode will give you the clarity, tools, and confidence to change the game.
