## Resource

When Belle Burden started writing after her husband left her with no explanation, and no money, she couldn't stop. And when she sat down to talk to Haley for this recording, they couldn't stop! Not only is Burden's phenom bestseller 'Strangers' a Memoir of Marriage (and Divorce), it's first and foremost a memoir of MONEY. Haley and Belle sit down for a fiercely honest financial interview, where they discuss the pre-nup mistake that allowed Belle's ex to leave her with nothing, the generational legacy of infidelity and financial trauma, and what it means to be financially independent after decades of marriage. Financial Tea with Mrs. Dow Jones is a Sony Music Entertainment production.
