I realised through watching this that I'm a closeted minimalist. I have 1 back-up shampoo because my shampoo was on sale. I have 1 bottle of conditioner in my shower, 1 facewash that I love, a body wash that we got gifted, a 3 step skincare routine that I'm faithful to and only ever buy back when I finish something... I've had the same shoes for years, I rarely buy clothing. If I was a cishet man I would probably have a weekly podcast about this.

Let's talk about proper pajamas! I feel you on this. I just recently starting buying myself actually pajama sets and it's honestly life changing. Budgeting and saving is so important but so is investing in the things that truly matter. I'm really taking my running seriously this year, and I've been putting a good chunk of money towards all things running. It's all about intentional and thoughtful spending vs just throwing money around. Loved this video!

I’m a stay at home momma of a 3 year old and newborn and I’ve had to stop myself from buying outfits that I can’t wear at home. I love cute clothes but need to be practical that I’m running after toddlers all day so investing in athletic clothes is what I need to do! Also, my husband and I have been saving to redo our bathroom (new floor tile, vanity and shower tile). So we have saved for 10 years and are finally doing it this year!

Lovingggggg the long hair! Looks so good! Omg my husband used to have a dog (before we got married) and training was definitely one of the costly items on his budget and I felt the same way you did about the training. It was so expensive for very little results. With him working 8 - 5 plus an hour+ long commute each way, there was hardly any time to put into continuing the training after the trainer was gone.

As someone who has trained a lot of dogs in the past, 90% is training people. Honestly you’re training yourself as well what to do to help your dog. Separation anxiety is a tough one but the reality is that it just will take persistence with your training.

They're known as a more middle-aged mom brand but their Cool Nights collection is insanely soft even after literally hundreds of washes. I have a pair of shorts from there that I am still wearing over 10 years later. I hope they sell to Canada!

Things I'm not spending money on: eating out (although I was never really bad at it before), any new video equipment (unless a HUGE project warrants it), I've NEVER been a shoe/purse person, extra lotions and potions that don't really do anything to fight aging. lol Things I will spend money on: I do love my candles, experiences (particularly travel if work picks up, and workout gear (because I practically live in and I end up having to do laundry a couple times a week because I go through it so fast, and hair cuts (because I have shorter hair and I got complacent for too long and was just doing ponytails). ETA: also invest in my hobbies like tap dance classes, which I started about 2 years ago.

Sony headphones are so much better than the apple ones! Noise cancelling, comfort/ fit.

I've been using the library exclusively but its tough if you're looking to get a popular book quickly. My trick is to place myself on many many holds and wait for whichever come by. Sometimes an entire bunch comes and sometimes one or two, but it gives me the sense of urgency to read them. This year I'm cutting back on eating out and meal prepping with Stasher bags. I've also been thinking about getting the Hatch alarm for the winter season since it's so hard to wake up in the dark...did yours help?
