Why a $195 Throw Blanket Is a Bargain — with Lauren Hidalgo of Awarehouse

Text me your thoughts or questions on this episode!

In this guest episode, I sit down with Lauren Hidalgo, founder of the online marketplace Awarehouse, to talk about something we rarely stop to add up: what we're actually spending on the small stuff.

It's about how we assign value to what we buy — especially handmade objects — and the gap between what something costs and what it's actually worth. The $25 throw pillow doesn't feel like a real purchase. But enough of those add up to real money, spent on things with no story and a short life.

Subscribe to hear Lauren and me walk through four specific pieces — what they're made of, who made them, and what they actually cost you once you do the math on the alternative.
