Black Friday can be exciting and overwhelming. The deals are everywhere, the prices are tempting, and suddenly your cart is full of things you didn’t even know you needed. In this episode of Accountable, I share a simple 3-question process to help you make smart, guilt-free purchases this Black Friday (or any time you’re tempted by a “too-good-to-pass-up” deal).

You’ll learn:
How to identify whether something is a real investment or just a distraction
The 3 questions to ask before you buy
Why guilt-free spending starts with aligning your purchases to your goals
How to audit your past purchases to make better decisions this season

Your Accountable Action:
Before buying anything this Black Friday (even my deals!), ask:
 1️⃣ Do I already use and love this?
 2️⃣ Does it directly support my current or near-future goals (3–6 months)?
 3️⃣ Do I realistically have time to use it?
If it’s a “yes” to one (or more), you’ve got a smart investment.
