The Russian invasion of Ukraine has had global ramifications, driving the cost of fuel and food up significantly. As a result, Business Insider released an article that suggests that Americans budget an extra $5200 this year. Join the Amigas today as they discuss this article and how the price increases have affected their parenting. We dive into the discussion with why Marcy feels that $5200 is not enough, and how each of the Amigas are tightening their belts. As mothers, it's important to the Amigas not to let their kids suffer the same way they did, but how do you get them to appreciate the value of money when they have never been exposed to it? Daimy talks us through how she has changed her attitude towards what she cooks, while GG breaks down the challenges of being a yes mom. The key takeaway from today is to be mindful of your finances, and to parent in such a way that your kids are mindful (but not stressed!) about finances too. For all this, and so much more, press “Play” now.
