Having a thoughtful, sustainable and more mindful Christmas does not have to be a buzzkill.
With that in mind, this episode of The Women’s Podcast is full of tips for a more joyful and less wasteful festive season, that doesn’t banish the fun.
Irish Times contributor Catherine Cleary and money mentor Santis O’Garro joined podcast presenter Róisín Ingle to share their ideas for sustainable gifts and for keeping the costs down this Christmas.
