When did having fun start feeling so damn expensive?

From $80 dinners to group trips that quietly blow your budget, summer socializing can leave your wallet crying in the corner. But guess what? You don’t need to overspend to feel connected, joyful, or rich in your relationships. In this episode, we’re redefining luxury and reclaiming connection—without the credit card hangover.

This is Rich Girl Summer: Social Edition—your ultimate guide to fun, fulfilling, and financially aligned social moves. We’re talking progressive potlucks, walk + talk therapy, beauty swaps, game nights that slap, and how to gracefully opt out of overpriced plans that don’t serve you.

We also dive into the powerful role your inner circle plays in your financial health—and how to build friendships that fill you up instead of draining your time, money, and emotional energy. And for the cherry on top? We’re romanticizing the everyday. Because free joy? Still rich girl energy.

You’ll walk away learning:

How to create fun, low-cost social plans that feel luxe
How to say “no” to expensive invites—without guilt
How to audit your friendships for alignment and mutual support
Creative ways to connect that support your financial goals
How to turn solo time and small rituals into luxury experiences

This episode is part inspiration, part pep talk, part practical guide to having a rich summer in every sense of the word—without going broke in the process.
