When Lindsey Galbraith’s marriage ended over financial infidelity, she swore she would never mix money and relationships again. Then she met someone new.

Don’t forget to subscribe to our newsletter! This week, Reema chats with a counselor about how couples can work through money issues. It’s all exclusively for our email list, so don’t wait! Here’s the latest issue, in case you missed it.
