Childhood scarcity shapes financial meaning

James Sexton is the world's most famous divorce attorney — 26 years, thousands of cases, and clients ranging from billionaires to celebrities. His verdict? Money isn't what breaks marriages. It's disconnection. James and Natalie discuss:

• Why 71% of marriages fail, and why money is a symptom, not the cause
• What billionaire divorces reveal about wealth & happiness
• How Bitcoin and crypto are dealt with in divorce proceedings (you won't believe one of his stories)
• The truth about prenups, financial compatibility, and why "enough" is the only number that matters
• The free daily practice James says could save more marriages
