Loved the video!

Ahhh I loved the part of you lying down contemplating your socks purchase 😂 you look sweet.

It's my first time watching you and I watched the whole video which I usually don't. Your energy and voice is so calming. I'll keep watching your videos and very interested in another video about your no buy year- especially about managing the temptations you had. Thank you!! and happy new year already :)

Thank you for the recommendation! I will also mention yoga with Kate Amber, found her in 2024 and helped me get to the next level🎉

Thank you, planning for January, this helped.

I've always been a cheap skate that won't spend, but the last two years with both my children going to college I find myself shopping because of a combination of boredom and loneliness. I need a way out of the suburbs, which is good for children, but not parents after children move on. Housing prices have went up and interest rates went up too, so I don't see an easy way to move on. My house is cheap and low interest, I can afford to keep it, but I can not afford to buy another at the higher prices. Buying nothing won't make a difference, I still buy less than 1/4 the price of a new house. I would fall behind financially if I downsize my house. I want to downsize but don't see a way yet.

I couldn't manage a no buy but I'm going to try a low buy. I just know with my shopping habits a no buy would last five minutes.

Would really like to see a “how-to” kind of video from you Mollie ❤ really enjoyed this video - as always x

Learning French in my thirties is proving to be difficult but even with minimal effort I'm noticing improvement. In 2025 I wanna put more effort into it though! Thanks!

Love your energy and your vibe. I've been discovering a lot of the same things as all your videos on my own personal journey through life. Very relateable and helpful content, thank you for posting and sharing with us 🙏

So tempted to do this too, but I desperately need to upgrade my phone ;(

Doubt it!!!

As a contractor, I am buying tools and materials all the time to work on clients houses. I would love to have all that money back in my pocket, but the truth is, I pass the cost of tools and materials onto my clients in order to complete the jobs. It is all in the initial bid and I try very hard to stick to my original bid. Inevitably, I end up buying tools, gloves, safety glasses for myself to make the job easier and safer. So in the end, I still spend too much money on myself. I don't think a "No Buy Year" is practical in my case, but I should definitely make a much greater effort to minimize my spending.

I am relocating to a different climate in 2025 and had to buy a ton of stuff for it (athletic wear, sunscreens etc) beforehand. But I might consider this once I'm settled in my location as I don't have to buy anything really once there. Thanks for your perspective. I've for sure felt the fever shopping this past year and it's made my physically ill to see how much stuff I have that I don't actually need (junk). Now I am downsizing before putting it in storage to get the better storage price with less items.

You make it sound so enriching and doable, thank you❤

Great job and very inspirational. Did you follow a particular programme or just picked and chose randomly from Boho?

I decided after over consumption during Black Friday week I was going to do a no buy January to March and then see how it went after that. I love that you name dropped HLP 🥰 as her no buy in 2018(?) was the first time I was introduced to this concept. I have been consuming a lot of no buy / no spend content to prepare myself for January, I have also unsubscribed to a lot of emails and am not on social media as much. I find if you don’t see the products and the sales the FOMO is less/gone.

You are leighton Meister are sisters?😊

kinda funny how consumerism sneaks into everyday life. good on you for pushing back

I like you

You look very fresh. ❤

Thank you for this video. I am going to start with 6months.

I really appreciate how you described debts - I've been thinking of it lately as being in integrity (in all ways)

had this in my recommended a couple days ago, watched it and loved it, so now coming back to it to compile a list and get ready for 2025 :) i love the idea of setting yourself up for success, instead of saying "january 1st is my deadline and then i'll magically have it all figured out"

I don't understand the statement where spending less money would be a privilege

Really nice video, thank you!! And I would be interested in your goal-setting-routine:)

Love this topic, so motivating 🥰

Please make a video on how to build muscle with yoga or how you gained muscle with yoga. I love building muscle and yoga and I want to combine them. Are there any useful channels in this field that can help me as well?🥺🙏🏻

Very inspirational

lovely + inspiring video!! on a side note, where is your sweater from, it is so lovely!! (not that I'm going to rush to buy it since that would be... ironic... considering the theme of this vid hahaha)

I’m super inspired by your experience - seriously considering doing this in 2025!

I'm wanting to do a year without shopping too. I'm buying a lot more than I need and this habit is hurting my wallet and affecting me mentally too. I know it will be a big challenge for me, but I will work hard to achieve it. Your video was certainly very useful to me at this time, thank you!

Great video! I'm planning on doing a no buy for 2025 and I'm actually looking forward to it! Wanting to slow down on my consumption and just use what I have

You are so dang cute and charming. Congratulations on your major achievement! :)

Great vid❤

❤❤❤

This has inspired me❤ this year I’m going to concentrate way more on what I HAVE, not what I WANT. 😊

Quick question, how did you manage to start the challenge and not but things just before, like to “prepare” for it? Btw, lovely shot with the cat, te mug and the candle!

i love this. i relate to so much of what you said about your relationship with money, scarcity mindset and the feverish urge to buy more. can’t wait to implement this in 2025! x

love this!!! feeling super inspired watching after doing something on a much smaller level (75 hard style challenge/no buy of clothing/accessories for 75 days)

I didn't even watch this video for more than 2 min and I'm already annoyed that people are doing a video about restraining themselves not to buy stuff while in poor countries we barely have money to buy food from month to month, with an 8h/day job, paycheck to paycheck. This is so in your face to the people that work their a** off and struggle day by day. I haven't bought clothes in 10 years, I only bought the cheapest things that were an emergency in 10 years and if I do, I have to give up on food for a bit at the end of the month, eat once a day and cheap. You guys are trying to make it sound fancy(frugal) instead of just saying you're poor. But if you have the money and decide not to spend it it's a whole different situation and with that, you are just making poor people feel bad, because how is this inspiring for the poor that can barely afford food? what else is there that you can give up in order to survive?

Where did you get your sweater? I love the colors

So inspiring 💕

Started my no-buy month on August 1st, 2023. Eventually, It turned out to be a no-buy year. And on August 1st, 2024 my second no-buy year started. These 16 months weren't perfect. I made 15-20 impulse purchases (5 books, 5-6 pieces of clothing, makeup, and accessories - all the things from my no-buy list) and decluttered some of them/// BUT before this challenge I could buy all these things and even more in 1-2 days. Also, I've decluttered and donated hundreds of pieces of clothing, books, some makeup, and accessories. I've read dozens of books I already have, I'm trying to use all my hair care products and stationery and I haven't bought anything new during these 16 months. Actually, my hair care products motivated me to start this challenge - I decided to grow my hair out. I have wavy, thick, and frizzy hair, and I cut it in a bob and straightened it. So I got tired of ruining it with a straightener, and I started watching a bunch of videos and buying dozens of different products to care for it. Because I went to work, and my unstraightened hair would look terrible. In the end, in 3 months I bought about 70 products, and some of them were very expensive. And that was a wake-up call. Despite the fact that I haven't bought any new hair products since June 2023, I still have over 50 different bottles, most of them are full, so I definitely won't be buying masks, creams, and hair sprays in the next 2-3 years. The main insights, discoveries, and changes for me were a few things. First, although I've decluttered hundreds of things and bought almost nothing during this time, it seems to me that I have even more books, clothes, and lipsticks than I did before the challenge. These things literally suffocate me, but decluttering is a slow process, and it's been going on for two years now, I started before my no-buy year. Second, I began to appreciate and love the things I have and those I actively use more. I like to wear something out or use it up. I became less attached to certain things, and I want them less. For example, before, I kept all the books, even the ones I didn't like, because this is my home library, which I've dreamed of since childhood. Now I don't see the point in buying low-quality, very cheap books or keeping the ones I didn't like, because they don't add value to my library. It's better to give it to people who will be able to appreciate these books. I also feel much less inclined to buy anything, especially something very cheap - I don't want to waste my money, I imagine how it will clutter up my space, etc. Quality has become much more important than quantity. And I'm not even talking about the fact that thanks to this challenge I saved a lot of money and hundreds of hours of my life that I could have spent on shopping.

If you haven’t found her UA-cam channel already, you should check out Yoga with Shaunneka. She does wonderful and creative seated and yin flows. Very good for sick or tired days. I have her channels link below. Hope you enjoy! youtube.com/@yogawithshaunneka?si=ueNM9AD9Wwdm_GVC

This video came to me at the perfect time! I started to become obsessed with my "image" and with how fast the media is feeding us more to buy, it becomes impossible to even know what my best self is when I'm being influenced to pick a new me every few weeks. I've been giving up on shopping, I have been more sustainable when I need to shop but going into 2025 I will be implementing a no buy year. Your video has so much to relate to, I really think a lot of people could benefit from this sort of approach even if it's just once.

This is very inspiring. Thank you for sharing :)

Hoping to do a no spend for the first 3 months of 2025 to give myself a good financial start! It's a great idea!

I am following Boho, since 2 year i really recommend
