  • Is it OK to Have a Car Payment? & How To Avoid an Auto Loan
    May 9 2025

    Auto loans aren’t automatically bad. But they’re not automatically good either. In this episode, Jen and Jill talk through when taking on car loan debt makes sense and when it’s a financial trap in disguise. They share their own experiences with auto loans, why a long loan term could cost you big time, and the rising interest rates that might surprise you (even with good credit).

  • Start Here to Become Frugal in 2025 | Frugal Living Tips
    May 6 2025

    Frugality is not a dirty F-word that so many people associate it with. In this episode, we are chatting about the heart of what frugality means to us (our “frugal manifesto” if you will!). We're flipping the script on frugality and ditching the idea that it’s all about restriction. Instead, we’re talking about how being intentional with our money, time, energy, and space can actually lead to a fuller, more satisfying life.

I love this podcast and look forward to hearing a new episode each week. I began my debt free journey a couple years ago and this podcast quickly became my top choice for finance podcasts. I love listening to Jen and Jill read advice from topical articles and talk about their own experiences. I also am motivated by listening to their guests amazing debt free journeys. Jen and Jill are fun and relatable and cover a variety of topics that make you feel like you can take control over your finances. Take a listen and join their Facebook community for even more support and advice.

Best Podcast Ever!

Do you love fun, frugality, and friendship? Then this is the perfect podcast for you! Jen and Jill are true friends who break down finances and frugality in a way that shows they understand we're whole people. They don't talk down to the listeners and they put the "personal" in "personal finance." You won't find any one size fits all recommendations here because not everything works for everyone. But you will find practical advice for everyday situations. Love this podcast and love these girls!

Fun! Frugal! Friends!
