Episode notes

This episode is your ultimate guide to afford the holidays without all the stress and debt that can come with it. With that said, I get that it is hard to do. The holidays always feel like a time when you are expected to spend money, even when you might not have money to spend. Maybe you have a family member who is always trying to one-up your gifts, or you feel pressured to have the best gift for your boss. And what about Dad’s? I never knew a good gift to get my dad, so I always overspent when I could’ve just got him a new t-shirt, and he would’ve loved that. So, I called in my new friend, Pattie Ehsaei. If you don’t know Pattie, she is known as the Duchess of Decorum on TikTok and has a raving fan base. She teaches financial literacy and social and workplace decorum. For the last 22 years, she's had a multifaceted career as a lawyer and manager in financial services and currently stands as Senior Vice President of Mergers and Acquisitions Lending. In this episode, Pattie shares her best tips to afford the holidays, why she thinks regifting is socially acceptable(I didn’t even know that was a thing), and how to DIY your holiday decorations and gifts in style.
