Episode Details

If you don’t know what’s in your bank account… could financial abuse already be happening?

Many women assume that letting their spouse handle the finances is normal. But sometimes what looks like convenience or trust is actually financial control. In this episode, Heather Quick sits down with Plutus Award–winning personal finance writer Emily Guy Birken to uncover how financial abuse often hides in plain sight and why even intelligent, successful women may not recognize it until divorce is on the table.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

1. The subtle warning signs of financial abuse that many women overlook in marriage
2. Why capable, high-achieving women often miss the red flags of financial control
3. How to protect yourself financially and avoid costly mistakes during divorce

Listen to this episode to understand the hidden dynamics of financial abuse and learn how to reclaim control, confidence, and financial security.
