376. Can Frugal mean Abundance? Jen and Jill from Frugal Friends say YES

Published: April 7, 2024, 2:01 p.m.

What is Frugality felt good? What if it was about abundance and positive mental health and a great contribution to wasting less and doing more of what you love? 


Well\u2026 that is what Jen and Jill from Frugal Friends Podcast have made it about and I love it so much I\u2019ve recorded a show with them. We discuss: 


  • Why the negative connotation of frugality and how to flip the script in your life? 
  • How does one start to think about living frugally in a way that doesn\u2019t conjure 1 jar with a year\u2019s plastic, making everything from scratch wearing a linen dress in the woods and homeschooling your kids if the stereotype doesn\u2019t resonate? 
  • What got you both feeling frugal? Did you grow up that way? A crisis? Awakening?
  • Frugal in the kitchen, walk us through your fave ideas that you love to get people onto when they\u2019re exploring/trying to change
  • Frugality with appliances and fixing things 
  • Frugal living with kids who want \u2018all the things like their friends have!\u2019 - how can we make it a potentially positive experience in raising kids? 
  • Frugal success - little by little? Personal priorities? Best ways to make change stick?

And so much more. I hope you love it as much as we enjoyed having this conversation.
