Wanting a Prenup Doesn’t Mean You’re Planning to Fail

Wanting a prenup doesn’t mean you’re planning to fail.It means you’re planning thoughtfully.

Prenups and postnups are often misunderstood. They’re associated with distrust, pessimism, or worst-case thinking. In reality, they’re about communication and clarity.

The assumption that holds couples back

Many people worry:

• “This will feel unromantic.”

• “It sends the wrong message.”

• “It means we don’t trust each other.”

But the couples who approach these agreements intentionally often report the opposite—they feel more aligned afterward.

Why these agreements matter

Prenups and postnups can:

• Clarify financial expectations

• Protect both partners

• Reduce uncertainty

• Encourage honest conversations early

They create space for transparency—before stress or conflict enters the picture.

What these agreements are really about

At their core, prenups and postnups are tools for:

• Mutual understanding

• Fairness

• Respect for both partners’ futures

They don’t predict failure. They support stability.

A common misunderstanding

Many couples believe these agreements are only for the wealthy. In reality, they’re about clarity—regardless of income level.

You don't have to do this alone

If you’re unsure how to even start this conversation, you’re not alone. Most couples need guidance to approach it calmly and constructively.
