Consumerism and Capitalism are words that are referred to a lot in conversation in our world, but understanding it can feel overwhelming. Breaking it down into bite sized pieces was something that I wanted to do. Being armed with information about our money is SO powerful and helps us make decisions with our money and practice our Financial Sobriety. 

Unfortunately Consumerism and Capitalism is something we deal with daily.

The world we live in today is full of racism, sexism, colonialism, elitism, anti semitism, ableism and SO MUCH more. A lot of these movements are driven primarily by capitalism. It actually feels really hard to write this as I know I am a privileged white woman who is in recovery from many things.

We are in recovery from capitalism and consumerism. 

This weeks lesson will give you more insight into what this means for you and your Financial Sobriety.
