What to read after Mindful Money?

Does thinking about money stress you out? Does the concept of ‘having it all’ seemed more like a taunt than an aspiration? Do you want to make your money work for you, rather than the other way around? Has the Covid lockdown forced you to reconsider how you live your life and awakened a desire to develop a better work–life balance?

In 2018 Kel Galavan was living and working at breakneck speed, spending endless hours commuting, and felt like she saw more of her children asleep than awake. Realising this wasn’t the life she wanted for herself or her family, she quit her job, and with the family income reduced, embarked on a No-Spend Year in January 2019. Her journey through self-doubt and hard-won life lessons culminated in savings of over €27,000 and changed the life of her family for the better in ways she could never have imagined. Now she wants to bring these lessons to you as we adjust to the post-Covid world and hopefully an understanding of the importance of family and health above the consumer-driven rat-run of life in the twenty-first century.

Mindful Money is about building good spending habits and a positive money mindset to build a fulfilling, happy life no matter what the income. Part personal story, part how-to guide, Mindful Money provides deep insight into the emotional journey of Kel’s own experience, along with a background on how money works, and details the seven habits of mindful spending so that anyone can build a life of their own design on their own terms.

Mindful Money is more than a journey; it is a transformation in mindset that allows for more money, more freedom and more happiness in all our lives.
