#138 - "I Was Taught Accounting, Not How to Get Through the Day"

Have you ever wondered why your workdays feel so full, even when you're doing everything "right"?

Or why you can work hard all day and still feel like you're behind?

You're not alone. And there's a very real reason so many accountants feel this way.

This week's episode is going to hit home for you in the best possible way.

Here's the truth most of us were never told:

We learned the technical side of accounting, but we were never taught how to manage our mind while doing all the work.

And that missing piece affects everything—our focus, our stress, our productivity, and even how we feel at the end of the day.

In this episode, I break down why time often feels tight, even when you're giving your all.

I talk about the two parts of your brain that shape your day, why overwhelm shows up even when you're trying your best, and what changes when you finally understand how your mind works with time.

Once you hear it, you may never think about time management the same way again.

This episode is especially for you if:

• You often feel like you're racing the clock
  
• You work hard but still feel behind
  
• You wonder why some days feel scattered even when you planned to focus
  
• You blame yourself for not doing "enough"
  
• You want your days to feel calmer, lighter, and more intentional
  
• You're ready for time to finally feel manageable

Your time matters.

Your brain matters.

And understanding how the two work together can change your entire experience as an accountant.

I can't wait for you to listen!
