As the primary parent, you're also the primary spender. Every grocery run, every kid's activity, every household decision—it all flows through you. And somehow, that makes you feel like you're doing something wrong. Jen Smith, from the Frugal Friends podcast is back to flip that narrative on its head. In this conversation, we dig into why moms carry so much guilt around spending, why studies show you're probably spending less than you think, and how reframing your role from "the one who spends the money" to CFO of your family changes everything. Plus: a simple 90-day exercise that takes the shame out of your numbers and puts you back in control. If you've ever felt the weight of every purchase (even the groceries) this one's for you.

Jen and her husband paid off $78,000 of debt in 2 years and bought a house on a combined income of less than $90K. Jen didn’t want to change her spending to pay off debt and opted for side hustles instead. She quickly took on so many that she contracted shingles due to stress. Shingles led her to try a no-spend challenge to control her spending. The experience was so life-changing she wrote a book about it. It has over 2k reviews on Amazon. She feels personally victimized by budgets, doesn’t make one, and tells others they don’t have to either. Jen is the co-host of the Frugal Friends Podcast and co-author of Buy What You Love Without Going Broke.
