Kelechi said she also dropped some streaming platforms instead of paying for four at the same time.

She said:

"Do I really need 4 streaming platforms? No. Now I rotate free trials like a pro. I stopped shopping for the person I might become. Future me can wait as present me is broke. I finish what I have before buying anything new. No more 7 half-used lotions judging me from my shelf."
