Episode Synopsis

Consumerism is an American past-time, affecting the millennial generation more than others. For many, purchasing can be a short-term comfort and bring satisfaction in a stressful world. Did you know that 84% report impulse purchasing? And 40% of online buying is impulse purchases. Think about the abundance of marketing and advertising that we are inundated with online, on tv or the radio. With the  overwhelming ads we see everyday, no wonder impulse purchases are so common in our culture.
 
Listen in as Jen and Courtney discuss statistics and personal experiences with consumerism. Being more self-aware and creating intentionality and accountability with our time and resources can benefit any consumer to think twice about purchases, ensuring that the purchase is worth the financial, mental and physical costs.
