Nicole was recently sent a Reddit post written by someone feuding with their daughter over money. Today, Nicole settles their argument— and gives you a script to use if a loved one asks you for money you don't feel you owe.

Picture the moment at the end of dinner with a friend when the bill arrives and you lock eyes with one another, silently asking…how should we split this? It’s awkward, and it’s one of many conversations about money – small and big – we have to navigate with the ones we love. We’re diving into mutuals & money in this episode with a story from Kristen Meinzer (author and host of How to Be Fine, Daily Fail and many more) who lent money to a friend with the right intentions, but the wrong logic. We also hear from financial expert Gigi Gonzalez (aka The First Gen Mentor) who spills all her etiquette tea around talking money with friends.

Aurora James (the brilliant entrepreneur behind Brother Vellies, the Fifteen Percent Pledge, Friends and Family Collective) was preyed on by a loan shark. When she fought back, he offered to reduce her debt by $500,000 to sign a NDA. She didn't sign. Instead, she's used her story to protect female entrepreneurs from having to suffer the same challenges she did. Today, Aurora tells Nicole that $500,000 story.
