BONUS: Frugal Ain't Cheap | Jen & Jill x How To Money Podcast Dec 22, 2024

Show notes

Today’s episode offers a peek into what your favorite personal finance podcast might be like, if only it was hosted by two ladies! Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni are hosts of the Frugal Friends podcast which is all about embracing a more intentional and frugal lifestyle… but not THAT kind of frugal. They challenge the idea that frugality is about deprivation and instead highlight how it can empower you to achieve financial independence while living a life filled with joy and purpose.

Jen and Jill drive this point home in their new book, Buy What You Love Without Going Broke, which is exactly what we’re talking about today- spending money! We cover the ways that we’re doing it wrong, how to spend money in a healthy values-driven way, and strategies to support those new habits!
