This week’s episode was inspired by my ten-year-old daughter, who suggested I talk about kids and money—when to say no, how to teach value, and why happiness can’t be bought. I share real-life tips for setting boundaries, helping kids understand needs vs. wants, and finding joy in connection instead of consumption. From money jars to replacing “treats” with shared experiences, this episode is all about raising mindful spenders who know that value comes from gratitude, effort, and love—not stuff.

Also, a quick note: new episodes will now release on Mondays, giving you a fresh start to the week with a little grit, grace, and good ol’ mom life.
