Episode 55: A Year of Mindful Spending with Cait Flanders

Cait Flanders, author of The Year of Less,  shares what she learned about mindful spending (and living) from her “shopping ban” year. 

 

You’ll hear:

• Why you should track your spending 
• The difference between buying things for “you” vs. “the idealized you”
• How you can become more mindful in your spending

 

Be a mindful spender.  Don’t spend money unconsciously.
