It's trending to share your hauls, it's trending to share your capsule wardrobe, it's trending to buy a new water bottle, it's trending to show off your old water bottle. Consumption and consumerism are always trending, but why? We get into this and more in this week's episode of Money Feels.
We're your hosts, Alyssa and Bridget. Welcome to the podcast, where we talk through our money trauma and create a better understanding of building a healthy relationship with finance.
In today's episode, we discuss the following:
- Underconsumption as a trend
- Why we spend in the first place
- Overconsumption as a trend
- Stress-induced purchases
- Our lack of connection
- Romanticizing a trend and creating an idealized version of ourselves
- Change your algorithm, change your life!!
