The Ledger Leaf Podcast is for the ones who move with intention. The quiet builders. The gentle strategists. Small business owners who aren't interested in a sprint to six figures, but in creating a business, and a self-worth, designed to last. This podcast grew out of real conversations with clients learning their numbers for the first time, with founders building something meaningful on their own terms, with financial professionals and business friends who are doing it differently and doing it well. Each episode brings you bookkeeping education, honest founder stories, and conversations with the financial professionals and growth strategists worth knowing. No noise. No pressure. Just real talk about building something that lasts. Slow and steady.

    You should be doing THIS in QuickBooks Every Month

    If you're DIYing your books in QuickBooks Online and you're not sure what you should actually be doing every month, this one's for you. I'm walking you through my recommended monthly routine — refreshing your bank feed, categorizing transactions without trusting the AI suggestions, reconciling without creating duplicates, and the four reports you should be looking at every single month. Short, practical, no fluff. Do this after the first of every month and your books will actually mean something come tax season. AND if you don't feel like doing this all by yourself, you hire me instead ;)  https://calendly.com/brenna-ledgerleafbookkeeping/30min?back=1&month=2026-06 Make a Copy of our *FREE* Profit and Loss Template: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdJxVr62F99dHM6q89VZuo_fRpGoBAhTXawxqUTF2qhPKuvYg/viewform?usp=publish-editor Website: https://www.ledgerleafbookkeeping.com/ Instagram: @ledgerleaf https://www.instagram.com/ledgerleaf Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Ledger-Leaf-Bookkeeping-LLC/61569063584691/ Book a Chat with me: https://calendly.com/brenna-ledgerleafbookkeeping/30min Disclaimer: I am not an accountant, CPA, or legal professional.

    CT's Viral Social Media Strategist on Lurkers, Liabilities, and Local Cookies with Caitlyn Grad

    We have our first guest ever on the podcast: Caitlyn Grad, founder of Caitlyn Grad Marketing and the woman currently living on your For You Page thanks to her CT Hidden Gems content and her very serious hunt for Connecticut's best chocolate chip cookie. We get into the pearl necklace that accidentally launched her career, the Lurker Theory (every client she's ever signed, never liked or commented on her posts, just watched), and how to tell when you're too close to your own brand to see it clearly anymore. We also talk about pricing, since creatives are wildly undercharging, what to look for when hiring a social media person for the first time, and the red flags that should make you run. Plus our own chicken and egg debate: bookkeeping vs marketing, what do you outsource first.  And yes, we settle whether Heirloom Market is still the reigning champion of CT chocolate chip cookies. Follow Caitlyn, especially if you like cookies.

    "I'm Bad With Money" Is Not Your Whole Story

    A lot of people come to me and say it like it's just a fact about themselves: I'm bad with money. I don't really believe that's true, I think you haven't been TAUGHT anything about money.  In this episode I'm talking about the DIY phase of business and why it actually matters, what your books need at a basic level, and how to know when it's time to get help.  I also want to talk about what good help is supposed to feel like — because if you've ever worked with someone who made you feel like your questions were an inconvenience, that's not the standard. Your numbers are yours. You deserve to actually understand them.

    Are We Breaking Up?: Navigating Client Relationships

    Not every client is your client. And the sooner you believe that, the better your business gets. In this episode I'm talking about something I do regularly that still surprises people every time: turning away clients before they start, and breaking up with ones I already have. I'll walk you through the red flags I watch for in a consultation, how to trust your gut when something feels off, and what it actually looks like to end a client relationship kindly but firmly. If you've ever kept a client you knew wasn't right because you felt like you had to, this one's for you.
