Financial Mission
Welcome to the Financial Mission podcast, where we empower women entrepreneurs and moms to take control of their finances, achieve business success, and create a life they love. Hosted by Jess Wayne, a former burnt-out nurse turned inspiring coach, this podcast is your go-to resource for financial wisdom, business strategies, and personal development tips tailored for women.
Hi, I'm Jess Wayne. After 13 years in nursing, I found myself overwhelmed, stressed, and trapped in a cycle of people-pleasing. My turning point came when I decided to take charge of my finances and paid off $100,000 of debt in less than two years while healing from a mental health crisis. This journey transformed my life and ignited my passion for helping other women break free from financial stress and achieve their dreams.
Today, as a financial and business coach, I leverage my personal experiences and proven strategies to guide women entrepreneurs and moms through their own financial journeys. My goal is to inspire you, provide practical advice, and support you in building a financially secure and fulfilling life.
In each episode, you'll find:
- Expert Interviews: Insights from industry leaders, successful entrepreneurs, and financial experts who share their wisdom and experiences.
- Actionable Tips: Practical strategies for managing your finances, growing your business, and achieving work-life balance.
- Inspiring Stories: Real-life success stories of women who have overcome financial challenges and built thriving businesses.
- Personal Growth: Tools and techniques for personal development, mental health, and self-care to support your journey.
Whether you're just starting your financial journey or looking to take your business to the next level, Financial Mission is here to provide the support, inspiration, and practical advice you need.

#94 Joint Vs Separate Finances: What Works Best For Couples?
In this episode, we’re diving into a hot topic for couples—joint vs. separate finances. What’s the best approach, and how do you determine what works for your relationship?
Why this topic matters:
Money is one of the top causes of stress and conflict in relationships. Finding the right financial system can strengthen communication and trust.
· Approximately 43% of couples have completely joint accounts, while about 34% use a combination of joint and separate accounts, and 23% keep their finances entirely separate. (Source: TD Bank’s Love & Money Survey)
· This shows that while joint accounts are common, many couples are exploring hybrid approaches to balance transparency with financial independence.
Do you want to keep sending a Venmo payment to your partner for your half of the bills? How do you decide who pays how much for each bill? Do you pay for food, daycare, and clothing and your partner pays the mortgage, fuel, and utilities? Do you pay for all kid-related expenses and your partner does the housing and vehicles? What happens if you cover daycare and you have 1 kid, but then you want to have a second kiddo, does that mean you end up paying daycare for both kids? Does your spouse pay for 1 kid and you pay for the other?
There are no right or wrong answers here, but this episode will give you questions and topics to ask and discuss with your significant other. What works for me might not work for you. Communication is key here!
