Ever felt like Dave Ramsey's money rules just don't fit your life? You're not alone! This episode is all about why some folks struggle with sticking to Dave's plan and how there's a different way to do money that feels right for you. We've been there, done that with Dave's methods, and while we're all for getting out of debt, we know the journey can look different for everyone.

What We're Chatting About:

- Our Dave Ramsey Journey: We got debt-free with Dave's help and even got certified to teach his stuff. But, we noticed something was missing – the nitty-gritty on how to actually make a budget work for you.

- Why Dave's Way Isn't for Everyone: It's not that Dave's advice isn't good; it's just that sometimes, life doesn't fit into neat little boxes. We talk about why some folks find it tough and what we think is missing.

- The Real Deal with "Gazelle Intensity": Going all out on getting out of debt sounds great, but it can also make you feel like you're missing out on life. We share thoughts on finding a balance that doesn't leave you feeling guilty for enjoying a coffee out now and then.

- Budgeting for Real Life: We dive into why a one-size-fits-all budget doesn't work and how tweaking things to fit your lifestyle and priorities can make a huge difference.
