The Truth About Retail Therapy: Why Shopping Won’t Heal You (But These Tips Might)
Update: 2025-09-23
Description
We’ve all been there — bad day, stressful week, and suddenly we’re adding 12 things to our cart at midnight like it’s going to fix everything. Retail therapy feels good in the moment, but let’s be honest… it’s not really therapy.
In this episode, I get real (and a little funny) about:
💸 Why shopping gives us that quick dopamine high
🛒 My worst impulse buys (including lashes I wore once + $750 worth of subscription junk 😅)
📺 Throwbacks to The Flintstones and Friends that prove retail therapy isn’t new
⚠️ Red flags that shopping is becoming a problem
✨ Simple, practical steps to break the cycle (without giving up the joy of treating yourself)
If you’ve ever felt guilty after a shopping spree, or wondered why influencers make it so hard to resist hitting checkout, this episode is for you.
👉 Don’t miss the part about the 24-hour cart rule — it’s a total game changer!
