The Luxury Dropout

It can feel overwhelming to decipher how exactly to channel this inner strength with the flood of conflicting information that flows through our newsfeeds every day. Let Stephanie Joplin be your guide through it all, here on The Luxury Dropout Podcast! Stephanie is a former designer junkie who ditched $1200 sweatshirts to spoil herself with meaningful experiences.
