No New Things
Book • 2025
Ashlee Piper challenges herself to buy nothing new for nearly two years.
In the process, she got out of debt, cut clutter, crushed her goals, and became healthier and happier than ever.
After a decade of fine-tuning, No New Things guides readers through the same revolutionarily simple challenge.
The book follows the rise of what Piper calls “conditioned consumerism” and how it sneakily hijacks our time, money, and mental bandwidth, as well as harms the planet.
From there, readers follow customizable daily action items that bring about the ease and richness of a life less bogged down by spending and stuff, without compromising on style, convenience, or fun.
