In this heartfelt and humorous episode of The 3L’s Podcast, hosts Eman and Mimi open up about how finances tested, but ultimately strengthened their marriage. They revisit their early days: one income, a new baby, and the illusion that love alone would carry them through. What followed was redundancy, career shifts, and the humbling reality of rebuilding from scratch. Eman reflects on going from corporate success and luxury cars to riding the bus in a suit, while Mimi recalls turning her cake hobby into a business to help make ends meet. Through candid storytelling, the couple dives into how societal expectations of gender roles complicated their communication about money, and how they learned to reframe their marriage as a true partnership. Despite moments of tension, especially during major financial lows, they both emphasise that mutual respect, honesty, and shared goals kept them grounded. Mimi’s unwavering support during Eman’s hardest times becomes a recurring theme, one that redefines what “providing” truly means in marriage. They also discuss how they’re teaching financial literacy to their children, not just through conversations, but through real-life lessons in saving, spending, and delayed gratification. Their “legacy” segment highlights their desire to raise emotionally and financially intelligent kids. The episode ends on a lighter note with a “Petty Moments” segment, where Eman jokingly calls out Mimi’s hidden Vinted and Amazon packages, a playful reminder that in every real relationship, humour helps carry the load. At its core, this episode is a powerful message about unity: that chasing money can break a marriage if you let it, but with love, communication, and shared vision, you can build something even greater, a legacy.
