Episode: Decluttering Your Spending: How to Align Your Money with What Matters Most (with Jill Sirianni)

Are Your Spending Habits Aligned With What Matters Most?

This week, I’m joined by Jill Sirianni, co-host of the Frugal Friends Podcast and author of Buy What You Love, to tackle an area of life that’s often overlooked in the decluttering conversation: your spending habits. If you’ve ever felt that impulse buys, sales, or the influencer-driven “must-have” culture were derailing your financial goals, this episode is for you.

Jill shares practical strategies for curbing impulse spending, aligning your money with your values, and building mindful financial habits that stick. Spoiler: Spending is a skill, and you can learn it at any age!

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why impulse buying is so common—and how to stop it in its tracks.
• The psychology behind sales and discounts (and how to resist the pull!).
• How to navigate a world of targeted ads and influencer culture with confidence.
• Practical tips for making small changes that lead to big financial results.
• Why spending is a skill—and how you can develop it.
