See My Interview In The Financial Diet Book!

I’ve been champing at the bit to share a really, really big piece of business news with everyone, and today is officially the day to spill the beans. If you’re a newsletter subscriber (sign up here if you’re not!), than you already know the news, but I wanted to pop on and shout it from the rooftops right here on the blog, too, just in case it’s something you missed.

Without further ado…I’m featured as an expert in the brand new book from The Financial Diet! I still remember the day back in June of 2016 when I received the invitation from Chelsea Fagan and Lauren Ver Hage to be part of their book. I couldn’t respond “Yes!” fast enough, and, nearly two years later, the book has finally arrived.

Just as you’d expect from the TFD brand, their book is full of easy to follow financial advice. You’ll hear Chelsea’s personal story all about where she started on her money journey (spoiler alert: it’s a humble beginning!), plus find out what has helped her turn things around.

Of course, you’ll also find tons of expert interviews in the book from leading names in all sorts of areas—from fashion and traditional financial planning, to home décor (from yours truly!). Here’s just a little taste of what you’ll get out of your read:

  1. How to get good with money in the span of just one year.
  2. How to talk with your friends about money.
  3. The best way to make a budget and stick with it
  4. Budget-friendly home maintenance and décor tips.
  5. What it means to invest and how to do it.

Grab your copy of The Financial Diet: A Total Beginner’s Guide To Getting Good With Money here, and be sure to share the news with your fellow financially illiterate pals. Trust me—I wouldn’t recommend this book unless it was really as good as it sounds. Personal feature aside, the book is filled with great tips that you can start implementing right away. It’s never too late to get better at managing your money, and this book will definitely show you how in language you’ll understand.

Speaking of, consider this your warning that the book is a little PG-13 in terms of language. The tone is totally casual and like you’re talking to a friend, but that includes curse words and all. Word to the wise in case colorful language puts you off!

As always, thanks for following along, and for celebrating this exciting news with me. I couldn’t be more grateful to Chelsea and Lauren for valuing my words and perspective enough to put them in print. Money is something that I’ve always felt pretty comfortable talking about, and I hope that the book helps get you to that place this year, too. Happy reading!

DIY Look-A-Like Designer Striped Felt Tote

I’ve tried to make it a point to get out and about more often this year, so most weekdays you’ll find me spending time at the clay studio, enjoying a coffee at The Farmhaus here in town, or wandering thrift stores (mostly) just for fun. With all this extra time spent out in public, I’ve had to ditch my daily outfit of yoga pants and a graphic tee. Instead, I put a little more thought and effort into my outfits, which almost always includes jeans and a tucked-in button-up collared shirt.

Where I like to get a little bold, though, is with my accessories. I have a half dozen chain necklaces that I like to reach for depending on my mood, and I find myself changing out my tote bag or purse quite often, too. Just the other day I added a newbie to my collection, and it’s actually a DIY project that you can do at home with just a few key Oriental Trading craft supplies. Click the link to see my tutorial for this DIY Look-A-Like Designer Striped Felt Tote, and scroll on to find out from where I got my inspiration.

It all started with that ultra pretty (but ultra pricey!) bag from Kate Spade. I happened to spot it on a fashion blog that I used to follow, and remember thinking, “I could totally make something like that!” Turns out that I could, and you can learn how to make your own for right around $16 here. Now, tell me: what color stripes would you do?
