During this 16th episode of I Am the Future Me podcast, host Tyler Philbrook interviews the blogger and author Cait Flanders, who has most recently released the book "The Year of Less" that tackles the topic of consumption. Cait shares the shifts in her life that took her from becoming a blogger about debt and money to being a writer dealing with simplifying your lifestyle to allow you to focus on consuming the elements in your life that provide the most value and make you feel good. Show Notes: Cait Flanders has had many business projects: Blonde on a Budget, Honest Money Conversations, and Budgets and Sense. She began blogging about her journey to get out of debt in 2011, and eventually achieved getting out of debt in 2013.
