Coping With Frugality

Deskripsi

We’re in a cost‑of‑living crisis (but you knew that already). While being frugal isn’t a choice for most of us, it’s seen influencers take a hard pivot to de-influencing, underconsumption core, frugal chic, and month-long spending freezes. Somehow not buying things has become a trend of its own and, inevitably, an industry.This week, Alice Griffin and Jannah Anderson share their favourite case studies of frugality – from Bradley on a Budget to Hollywood’s infamous poverty cosplays to the influencers thrifting their way through fashion week voxpops. And because the wellness zeitgeist never sleeps: we’ve got a man on the inside of an IRL wellness challenge, plus the rise of parasite cleanses (DON’T try at home).Shout out to Laher for supporting this episode of Coping !
