I Changed My Mind: Why Spending Outside Your Budget Might Be the Best Thing You Do This Month | Ep 91 Debt Rebel Show

What happens when “The Budget Nerd” admits she changed her mind about one of the core budgeting rules? Yep… we’re going there.

In this episode, Jewlz breaks down the long-held belief that “if it’s not in the budget, you can’t spend it”… and why that rigid mindset may be secretly sabotaging your consistency, confidence, and momentum.

You’ll learn why flexible budgeting is actually a superpower for working families, how to shift money between categories without blowing up your goals, and the surprising mindset tweak that leads to long-term success on your debt-free journey.

Whether you’re constantly dealing with last-minute school expenses, surprise commitments, or just the real-life chaos of parenting — this episode will show you how to create a budget that works with your life, not against it.

Perfect for overwhelmed working parents, families trying to break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle, and anyone trying to build confidence with money (without the guilt spiral).

Grab your coffee and a snack — it’s Budget Nerd confession time.
