We’re so quick to beat ourselves up about the things we haven’t done in our business finances...
but what if we started celebrating what’s working?

I know it sounds cheesy but this makes a HUGE difference in your business finances!

Tracking even the smallest financial wins can give you the confidence and momentum you need to keep moving forward.

In this week’s episode of Get Comfy with Numbers, I’m sharing:
✨ Why most business owners overlook their wins
✨ The reframe that builds motivation & confidence
✨ Practical ways to track & celebrate your progress

Because the truth is: your numbers probably aren’t as ā€œbadā€ as you think and your wins deserve to be celebrated!

I can’t tell you how often I hear this: ā€œI’m so behind on my bookkeeping, I don’t even know where to start.ā€

Here’s the good news → being behind doesn’t mean you’re ā€œbad with money.ā€ It just means your system wasn’t built for real life (and life is BUSY).

In this week’s podcast episode, I walk you through a simple catch-up plan that will get you back on track without locking yourself in your office for days.

My QuickBooks says one number, my bank says another… and I have NO idea which one is right!
Sound like you? 🫣

The truth? This happens to almost EVERY business owner at some point, and it doesn’t always mean something is wrong. (Though sometimes, it is a red flag 🚩).

In this week’s new podcast episode, I’m breaking down:
āœ… The most common reasons QuickBooks and your bank don’t line up
āœ… When it’s actually normal (and nothing to stress about)
āœ… What to check so you can trust your numbers

You don’t have to panic every time you see a mismatch. I’ll walk you through it step by step.

Sales tax doesn’t have to be scary (but it can be costly if you ignore it).

In this week’s new episode of the Get Comfy with Numbers podcast, I sat down with Kristina from Tax Cloud to break down sales tax 101 for your business (in easy to digest, simple terms):
āœ… What sales tax actually is (and how it’s not income tax)
āœ… Who really needs to collect and file (hint: small biz owners, this means you too!)
āœ… The costly mistakes most business owners don’t even know they’re making
āœ… And how software like Tax Cloud can save you time, stress, and late fees

If sales tax has ever left you thinking ā€œDo I really need to deal with this?ā€ then this episode is for you.

QuickBooks is powerful but ONLY if it’s set up for your business (not just left at the defaults).

In this week's new podcast episode, I’m sharing the biggest setup mistakes most business owners make (and how to fix them).

If your P&L doesn’t make sense, you’re still entering things manually, or QuickBooks just feels ā€œoffā€ā€¦ this one’s for you.

We’ve got a new business name + podcast art, but don’t worry, it’s still the same comfy space for business owners who want confidence with their numbers (minus the boring accounting talk šŸ™…šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø).

I wanted to give you a little behind the scenes of WHY I decided it was time to make these changes.

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m sharing:
šŸ’² The story behind the rebrand (and why the old branding wasn’t working anymore)
šŸ’² What actually changed (name, look, feel)
šŸ’² Signs it might be time for YOU to rebrand or refresh your business

Because here’s the truth: sometimes our business evolves faster than our branding and when that happens, it’s okay (and necessary!) to make a change that feels aligned.

🤩 Eeeek! I am SO thrilled with the new podcast cover art that came with my brand refresh!! It finally feels like me ✨ šŸŽ‰

But don’t be fooled! While the outside looks fresh and new, The Get Comfy with Numbers Podcast is still the same comfy corner for business owners who want confidence in their finances (without all the boring, scary number talk ).

This week’s episode? We’re tackling a BIG question I hear all the time:
ā€œIf I have HoneyBook, do I really need QuickBooks too?ā€

Spoiler: the answer isn’t as simple as yes or no. HoneyBook and QuickBooks both do amazing things for your business but they are NOT the same thing. And treating them like they are? That’s where I see business owners run into costly mistakes.

By the end of this episode, you’ll know exactly how to use each tool (and together!) so your business runs smoother AND your books actually make sense.
