Summary

Most couples struggle to get on the same page regarding money and relationships. Less than 40% of married couples discuss their finances in detail—a staggering statistic that often leads to miscommunication, conflict, and, for some, divorce. But today’s guests, Jessica and Brandon Norwood, are trying to change that narrative.

Jessica and Brandon are the dynamic duo behind The Sugar Daddy Podcast, a show dedicated to helping millennials break the stigma around money conversations and build wealth as a team. As a married couple who have navigated everything from student loans to merging their financial lives, they bring a wealth of personal and professional insight. Jessica, a tech professional and the breadwinner in their family, and Brandon, a licensed financial planner, have developed a proven 5-step framework for creating financial harmony in relationships.

In this episode, we dive into:

The importance of shared values and financial alignment—why dreaming big as a couple is key.
Tackling financial dealbreakers—and why financial infidelity might be a red flag you can’t ignore.
What it’s like being a female breadwinner—and how Jessica and Brandon embrace modern parenthood and partnership.
And a bold take on affording kids—why waiting for financial “readiness” might mean you’ll never leap.

Check out this download to better understand the couple's D.R.E.A.M Framework for navigating money in your relationship.
