256: Values-Based Holiday Spending with Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni
I am so excited to welcome back co-hosts of the Frugal Friends Podcast - Jen Smith (personal finance expert) and Jill Sirianni (social worker) here on Minimal-ish to talk about all things values-based spending during the holiday season. Around here, we are no stranger to intentional living in many areas of our lives, including our spending habits. I absolutely loved this conversation because Jen and Jill bring such an incredibly gentle yet practical approach to navigating holiday budgeting with that same level of intention we strive for in our day to day life.

Today we have special guest Sara McCarty, the founder of Run Wild My Child which is a parent resource and community all about encouraging families to start doing outdoor adventures and in turn spend more time away from screens.
