Cuffed 2... The Bag, the Boo, and the Boundaries

What does it actually cost to chase the bag — and who pays the bill with you? This week Nai and Rae dive into corporate culture and all the messiness that can come with. They open on the act-your-wage discourse and the line nobody's drawing properly (boundaries or disengaged?). Then they get real about choosing passion vs. money the first time around. That conversation can't stay in the office only. Career identity sometimes bleeds into partner choice, so they take it to Cuffed 2 Connection: ambition in partners (do you actually want someone as driven as you?), Think Like A Man's Taraji P. Henson and her Morris-Chestnut-to-Michael Ealy character arc, and whether Janet Jackson really owed half her book money in Why Did I Get Married. Send this one to your work bestie. (Maybe even your work spouse — but only the okay kind.) Cuffed 2 the Culture drops new episodes every Monday — wherever you get your podcasts! Follow us at @Cuffed2theCulture on TikTok & Instagram.
