Cait Flanders on Mindful Living and Creative Growth
I really want to make sure I'm talking about being a consumer in a way where people are understanding that, like this is just who we are and taking back what the word consumer means, because it doesn't actually just mean like the things that we buy or even the things that we drink or like, eat or put into our bodies, like we as human beings, are consumers of everything...
Ever felt overwhelmed by the constant cycle of buying and consuming? Cait Flanders knows the feeling all too well. In this episode of Real Talk Radio, host Nicole Antoinette chats with Cait, a former binge consumer who transformed her life through mindful living. Cait's journey from overconsumption to intentional choices is nothing short of inspiring.
She dives into the challenges she faced while shifting her habits, offering practical advice on how to be more mindful about what we consume—whether it's food, media, or experiences. Cait also opens up about the trials of self-employment and the anxiety that comes with a scarcity mindset. She encourages experimenting with personal finance to find what works best for you, emphasizing the importance of long-term thinking and creative collaboration.
One particularly touching part of the conversation is when Cait discusses the connection between binge drinking and binge shopping. Both behaviors often stem from a desire to fill an emotional void.
