True abundance is about having the money, health, and time for a fulfilling life.
Virginia talks with Jen Smith, a leading voice in financial education and co-host of the Frugal Friends Podcast. Jen helps people manage their money better so they can have the freedom to pursue their passions and strongly believes business owners must use their time and energy wisely to achieve success.
Her decision to prioritize publishing her book “Buy What You Love Without Going Broke” over launching a YouTube channel speaks to the power of making intentional decisions that honor your current life stage and personal values.
Redefining Abundance
(00:14:41) Intentional Resource Management and Stewardship
(00:25:44) Tips for SEO Podcasting and Video Content
(00:37:06) Releasing Perfection to Make Room for Authenticity
(00:43:35) Creating Alignment by Spending with Discernment
"We will always spend money. We will always spend time. So to think of frugality as just wanting less, consuming less, less, less, less is a lie. It's a good spending of it. That's why we shifted away from how do I spend as little as possible to how do I spend as intentionally as possible?” - Jen Smith
