Ruth Soukup is a writer, speaker, wife, and mom, and founder of LivingWellSpendingLess.com. Begun simply as a way to hold herself accountable as she attempted to replace her overspending with a sustainable budget, LivingWellSpendingLess.com has since grown to be one of the top personal finance blogs on the web, averaging over 1.5 million visitors per month. She is also the founder of EliteBlogAcademy.com, an online course for professional bloggers and communicators.

She has contributed to articles in Woman's Day magazine, Redbook Magazine, The Chicago Tribune, and ALL YOU Magazine, has appeared on The Daily Buzz, and has been a regular contributor to TheBetterMom.com, Proctor & Gamble's HomeMadeSimple.com, and P&GEveryday.com. She also writes a feature column for Harbor Style Magazine and appears regularly on WINK News in SW Florida as a Money Saving Expert.

Ruth lives in Florida with her husband and two daughters. Her mission is to create a home filled with joy and purpose, and she firmly believes that a life well lived is not so much about what we have, but who we are.
