Al Jones shares the story of his mother who worked multiple jobs after divorce to provide for her family. Despite her hard work, she found herself feeling tired and frustrated. She turned to shopping as a way to ease her pain.
Sadly, this led to a spiral of debt and bad credit. Unfortunately, her overspending affected Al in unbelievable ways.
But he soon learned that wasn't the way he wanted to live. Listen to the full interview to hear Al's story. https://bit.ly/3QHC6Z6
The lesson here is that overspending is not self-care. Meaning retail "therapy" only works if you have the money to spend. So get some help to deal with stress and overwhelm.
