Spend Less, Enjoy More: The Art of Frugal Hedonism with Annie Raser-Rowland

What if the secret to enjoying life more actually costs you less? Today we have on Annie Raser-Rowland, co-author of The Art of Frugal Hedonism, to talk about her book that simply put, changed my life perspective on spending money, and what it takes to feel pleasure. We chat about how we've been psychologically conditioned to associate buying things with value , why experiences beat purchases every single time, and how the novelty-seeking itch we're always trying to scratch can be satisfied for free.
