One of my very early blog posts I wrote was about my experience of cutting down to part time hours while in pursuit of financial independence. The post itself is a bit rough as it was written in literally my first month of blogging, but it's still one I'm very proud of. On the path…
I met Liz back in November of last year at the inaugural Cents Positive. While I was so excited to meet blogger friends in person, again or for the first time, I really hadn't given a lot of thought to the other women who would be attending the event, considering well over half of them…
To start out with today, I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who commented or reached out after reading my post on anxiety on Monday. I had debated writing something on anxiety for a very long time but I hadn't worked up the courage to share it so publicly. As much…
This month's guest post comes not from another blogger, but someone I've known through Facebook for a year and a half since I first started my "No Spend November" challenge back at the end of 2017. This past January, she let us all know in the group that she would be embarking on a pantry…
When I got the opportunity to write a guest post for JD Roth over at Get Rich Slowly, I knew it was time to finally put to paper the idea for a post that had been marinating in my head for quite some time. So often we hear people talking about what they consider to…

While at first blush, personal finance, financial independence, ad sustainability don't seem to have that much in common, I'm finding that again and again,…
Quite obviously, I am personally not vegan. My husband and my extended family hunt and fish and I grew up crabbing even though I don't eat much in the way of seafood. We share in the purchase of a half or quarter cow every summer. We talk about some day adding chickens and honey bees…
I had been toying with the idea of starting to share a few guest posts on this blog when my friend Budget Epicurean reached out to me with the post she wrote on her journey toward zero waste. It was an absolute perfect fit for this blog and solidified that I absolutely wanted to start…
