Good morning! Gender plays a key role in the presidential election, the American Stroke Association addresses women's risks, and millennials and Gen Z are getting prenups. Have a great Thursday.

- I do. Over the past few years, Libby Leffler noticed a handful of trends. Women were outpacing men in earning college degrees; single women owned more homes than single men did; and women were poised to benefit from the upcoming $80 trillion Great Wealth Transfer.

Taken together, those trends boiled down to a realization: women—including young women—had assets to protect. Leffler—who was Sheryl Sandberg's first chief of staff at Facebook, where she worked from 2008 to 2015—decided to launch a startup that would make it easier for women to decide their financial future when they get married.
