Most business or financial advice only looks at the data. Your revenue goes into the spreadsheet, and out come smart recommendations but without taking the human being running the business into consideration.

This is not at all how I work with clients. In this episode I pull back the curtain and share what it's like to have me as your fractional CFO, partner and ally. What it looks like when financial precision is combined with a genuine understanding of human nature.

One of the hardest things about being a business owner is the loneliness of it. When you work with me, you get a safe space to be completely authentic. To say "I am exhausted and I don't know what to do" and "the numbers scare me" and "I feel like I'm the bottleneck in my own business" all in the same conversation. And the best part, you don't have to offer lengthy explanations because as your fractional CFO I know already what's going on in your business.

In my experience, something shifts, not just in the numbers on the spreadsheets also in the person at the helm of that business when you have someone who truly gets both, the numbers and the human behind it, in your corner.

I talk quite a bit about how to make good decisions here on the podcast, but what about what happens after? That quiet voice that shows up months later whispering "you should have waited, you left money on the table, you got it wrong."_ Or maybe the voice isn't whispering but yelling?

In this episode I talk about something that drives so many of our decisions without us even realizing it, the fear of future regret. And more importantly, what to do about it or how to prevent it. It's practical, honest, and maybe a little bit mind blowing, at least that's how it was for me when I first heard the solution.

After a really rough day at the office, the kind that leaves you completely drained, your nervous system buzzing, and your brain still replaying everything even though you're technically off the clock.... my advice to my client was surprisingly simple.

In this episode I share a tiny but powerful ritual that costs nothing extra, takes only a few minutes, and has both ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience behind it. Now the ritual works for everyone all the time, but I also share a personalized twist for each of the four elements, fire, earth, air and water... speaking of water, here is a little spoiler, it involves water. But for the rest you'll have to listen for.

Without a guidance system, we tend to drift. In this episode, I share why I use three planning tools to navigate my business: a North Star (big vision), a Lighthouse Plan (3-year outlook), and a Compass (yearly budget).

You'll hear why the 3-year plan is where the magic happens, the three sections I include in mine, and how this system pulls you out of reactive mode and into CEO thinking.

If you've been captaining your business without navigation tools, or if your budget feels like a straitjacket instead of freedom, you need to hear this!

New Year, New You… January 1st has a powerful pull, mostly fabricated by society, but it’s really not the best moment to start something new!

In this episode I share why a New Moon is a much more natural reset point, and why the New Moon in Capricorn is especially supportive for business owners who want to set goals and actually stick to them in 2026.

You’ll hear about a simple New Moon and Full Moon rhythm for intention setting and review. If you want a guided, more detailed process, I invite you to download the New Moon Intention Setting Guide

What if wealth had nothing to do with mansions, fancy cars, or high society dinners?

I was recently challenged in my mastermind to talk more about wealth... and I pushed back quite hard. Not because I don't like the topic, but because I don't see myself as someone who teaches "wealth" .. at least not in the traditional sense.

In this episode, I share my personal definition of wealth and what a rich life looks like which goes way past of looking successful. You'll also hear an example from my year-end money review, why my spending decisions come down to values not just numbers, and what integrity has to do with it all.

If you too feel uncomfortable around the gurus showing off their mansions and fancy cars and if the traditional definition of wealth doesn't fit you either, this episode is for you, let's redefine it together.
