I survived capitalism and all I got was this lousy t-shirt / : Everything I Wish I Never Had to Learn About Money
by Madeline Pendleton
A big-hearted memoir from TikTok superstar Madeline Pendleton about her journey from living paycheck to paycheck to creating a multi-million-dollar business that offers a compassionate alternative to capitalism. Imagine a job where you work four days a week and earn as much as the CEO. You also get full benefits, a gym membership, free lunch, and unlimited time off, including mental health days, no questions asked. Hard-won profits don't just end up in the CEO's pocket-they're distributed equally among all employees. The company even buys you your very own car. It sounds too good to be true, but this is the reality at Tunnel Vision, the clothing company that Madeline Pendleton Hansen built from the ground up.

Beyond getting by: The Financial Diet's Guide to Abundant and Intentional Living
by Holly Trantham
Fun, tangible advice on how to live with money, not for money, from the women behind The Financial Diet. The Girlboss came in many forms, and she struggled valiantly against the rising wave of exhaustion at her brand of pinkwashed-capitalism-as-liberation-but it's fair to say that we can finally put her to rest. Yes, money is essential to life, and managing it well is often the difference between freedom and constraint. But once you have enough of it, the focus should be on converting that money into things that are meaningful to you: more time with the people you love, more creativity, more days to just vibe on the couch. In Beyond Getting By, the women behind The Financial Diet will teach you how to create (and pay for) a life you truly enjoy-and thatyou can also be proud of. They will show you how to push beyond what society tells you will make you happy to determine what you actually want.
