Conscious Gift Guide 2024

Written By Morgan Spittal

The holidays are here—a season of joy, connection, and, let's face it, a little stress when it comes to gifting. This year, let’s ditch the overwhelm and embrace thoughtful, mindful giving.

I’m all about finding gifts from conscious brands—items that are made with care, meant to be cherished, or experiences that spark joy. It’s not about perfection but intention. Here’s my take on how to simplify your gifting this year while being kinder to your wallet, the planet, and yourself.

Take the Pressure Off

Let go of the idea that gifts need to be extravagant or endless. Set boundaries that work for you—try Secret Santa with your family or friend group, set price limits, or agree on gifting only to kids. It’s okay to keep it simple. The goal is joy, not stress.

Start Early & Shop Smart

I love tackling my Christmas shopping during Black Friday sales. It saves money and lets me avoid the mad December dash (because, let’s face it, the time between now and Christmas is going to fly). So, grab those deals and check off your list early—you’ll thank yourself later.

Rethink Consumerism

If you need a little inspiration to approach gifting differently, check out Netflix’s Buy Now! The Shopping Conspiracy. It’s a fascinating look at consumerism and why we should all aim to shop consciously.
