Episode Description

This week, we’re following Beth, a 52-year-old federal attorney from Kentucky who earns $230K a year and is raising a blended family, a 14-year-old son, two grown stepsons, and two adorable grandkids.

Beth walks us through a week of intentional spending, including:

  • Snagging $10K worth of high-end furniture on Facebook Marketplace for just $750
  • Treating herself to monthly DryBar blowouts
  • Managing skyrocketing teen food bills
  • And staying mindful through a hybrid work schedule and variable family expenses
