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
