In this episode, Priya Malani is joined by marital attorney Ian Steinberg for a candid conversation about prenups: what they are, what they aren’t, and why they matter more than you think. More than just legal protection, prenups are a tool for clarity, communication, and financial partnership. Especially when caregiving roles, debt, or business interests are involved. If you think prenups are only for the wealthy, this conversation will change your mind.

Priya and Ian break down the difference between marital and separate property, the risks of commingling assets, and how state laws can shape what happens in divorce if no agreement is in place.

• Why prenups aren't just for rich people and how they protect both partners
