Emma's Dilemma: HELP! I stopped buying clothes, but kept spending everywhere else...
from The Broke Generation · host Emma Edwards
Welcome back to another Emma's Dilemma. Today we're unpacking a curly one about what happens when we cut off one area of spending... but just spend the same amount in another area. In this episode I dive into: The difference between being pulled to spend on one specific area vs spending as a behaviour more generally An exercise to understand the unmet needs we might be responding to with spending transference The concept of hedonic adaptation and how we can combat it The PERMA model from Positive Psychology and how it can help us get more meaningful value from our money PREORDER THE WARDROBE PROJECT!
