Two moms from my kids’ school, Megan and Tori, started a boutique together a few years ago. Megan had the eye for clothes, Tori was better with numbers, and after talking about the idea over coffee for what felt like forever, they finally formed an LLC, rented a small storefront, and opened.

I had never heard the phrase “financial infidelity” until a couple of months ago. Since then, I’ve heard it three times: once from a friend going through a divorce, once at a birthday party, and once in a group chat that got very quiet very fast. The definition is pretty simple.
