Sure, this post comes right on the heels of Cyber Monday\\u2026but is there ever a perfect time for a message like this? Yes, I run a business, but I still don\\u2019t mind kicking the cultural hornet\\u2019s nest. Some things don\\u2019t change.

But that doesn\\u2019t mean there isn\\u2019t contradiction. Here I am doing my own holiday shopping today (don\\u2019t tell Carrie)\\u2014and offering my own deals to those who are interested. The holidays\\u2014with all the shopping and parties and prep\\u2014are fun. No doubt. Simultaneously, I know financial stress takes a major toll this time of year, and it doesn\\u2019t have to be that way.
