Why Every Woman Needs a Prenup: The Truth About Love, Money, and Protecting Your Future

Описание: Prenups aren’t about divorce — they’re about clarity, protection, and building the marriage you actually want.

This conversation with California family law attorney Deveney Wells-Gibson breaks down everything most people get wrong about prenups, why so many women end up blindsided in divorce, and how financial transparency can strengthen — not threaten — your relationship.

❤️‍🔥 About The Scarlet Edit
The Scarlet Edit is where we get real about divorce, affairs, situationships, infidelity, and everything else that’s often swept under the rug in today’s dating world. No shame, no judgment - just the truth.

I’m Nikki Corbett. I’ve been divorced, had an affair, and lived through a heartbreaking situationship - experiences that prove there’s more to modern relationships than what we’re taught. On this podcast, we dive deep into the raw realities of love, emotional intimacy, power dynamics, painful endings, and fresh starts.

If you’re tired of cookie-cutter love stories and want something that speaks to the real truth of what we’re living through, this is your place. If you’ve ever felt like your relationship journey doesn’t fit the traditional mold, you're not alone. You deserve to be seen, heard, and loved. No exceptions.

This podcast is for anyone who’s ever questioned their worth, fought to rewrite their own story, or felt the sting of a love that didn’t fit the fairytale. You are not defined by your past choices. You are allowed to want more, and you deserve a life that's full of the real, genuine love you crave. So grab a drink, settle in and enjoy. The Scarlet Edit was created by me, for you.
