78 | What I Learned From My 38-Year Struggle with Contentment
About 2 months ago, I added a tagline to HER Style Podcast: Buy Less, Shop Smarter, Build a Wardrobe You Love. I’d be lying if I said that came naturally to me. When I let myself go on autopilot, I want to buy all the things. I shop with abandon. And my wardrobe gets out of control. I’ve confessed my former shopaholic ways. I used to believe more was more when it came to my closet. I wanted options and to have a wardrobe brimming with trendy pieces! I never wanted to be photographed or seen in the same thing twice. I depleted my bank account many times on the quest to have it all. It’s taken years of not only discipline, but discernment about what really matters to me, where I want to invest my finances, and learning the hard way that material possessions never satisfy. After 38-years, I no longer define my worth by what I own. But it’s taken a long time to get to this place. In today’s episode, following on the heels of what I shared about my parallel battle with perfectionism, I’m diving deep into what I’ve learned during my lifelong struggle with contentment. If you’ve ever felt like you need something —anything– outside of you in order to feel happy, confident, or just plain peaceful, then pull up a chair, my friend. We have much to discuss.
