    201. Starting Your Own Business Later in Life: A Conversation with LIBBY Alum Mary Ellen Mansfield

    Many of my messages on this podcast are geared towards young moms looking for a way to be home with their kids…for a good reason. That’s where I was when I began my own bookkeeping biz, and I truly believe it is one of the greatest tools moms can use to reclaim their time, their presence, and their freedom without sacrificing income… But that doesn’t mean ONLY young moms can benefit from a bookkeeping business! Today, I’m so excited to have Mary Ellen Mansfield on to chat about her journey, which certainly differs from my usual students: Mary already had a long and exciting career before she began to pursue bookkeeping, but when the time came that she wanted more freedom + the option to explore working for herself, bookkeeping became her clear next step!   EPISODE RESOURCES:   WORK WITH MARY ELLEN: Website: bookswithmem.com   CONNECT WITH MARY ELLEN: LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/bookswithmem   WORK WITH KATIE: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?

    How I Escaped My 9-5: Best of Profits + Prosecco

    Some time ago, I was interviewed by Tara Armstrong, and I shared a few things with her that still hold true today… Firstly, I shared the story of how I came to realize I needed to exit corporate, despite meeting every mark of success I’d ever set for myself…and how I made the seemingly impossible happen. And secondly, I gave her a list of the traits you need in order to become a successful bookkeeper…and one thing you DON’T need that many people think you do.   EPISODE RESOURCES: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?

    199. A Quitter's Club Success Story: Best of Profits & Prosecco

    We’re back with more Profits + Prosecco highlights…and what better story to share than a member of the corporate Quitter’s Club? Lisa Kinser came on some time ago to share her experience leaving her corporate job, discovering BABs, and starting her own bookkeeping business. These days, she’s not only running her business—she also hosts The Simply Booked Podcast! Lisa’s journey is an inspiring one…and one I believe will show you just what’s possible when you invest in yourself and realize just how much potential you have outside of corporate life. Don’t take my word for it—let me just pass her the mic…   EPISODE RESOURCES: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?

    How BABs Boosts Your Confidence to New Heights: Best of Profits & Prosecco

    We’re working incredibly hard behind the scenes on the BABs revamp…but before we get to its launch, I want to remind everyone exactly what BABs can do for you. Now, I’ll own this: I’m super biased when it comes to BABs. This program is my baby. I love it dearly. So after all this time listening to me brag about how great it is (because it is, it’s mind-blowing) you might be feeling a bit skeptical. After all, just how transformative can ONE program really be? So I thought I’d let you hear from some people who know exactly what it’s like to be in your shoes, and whether BABs is actually worth the investment for you: actual BABs students!   EPISODE RESOURCES: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?

    Healthy Expectations and the ROI of Bookkeeping: Best of Profits & Prosecco

    Welcome back to the Best of Profits & Prosecco series! Today, as we’re heading towards a new era of BABs—and a new era of brand-new bookkeepers—I think it’s a good idea to revisit an important topic…setting realistic expectations. As I always say, bookkeeping can be simple. Bookkeeping can be scalable. Bookkeeping can support your life while making room for you to actually live that life… But that doesn’t happen overnight. I don’t want you all to think that bookkeeping is some kind of get-rich-quick scheme. My business is everything I ever wanted it to be, but that didn’t happen overnight! I had to put in the work. I had to build it intentionally over time—a lot of time. It took a while to see the return on investment. But now that it’s here, it’s not only worth the wait…it is a recurring form of ROI. Meaning, it never stops giving. Here’s how it happened for me…   EPISODE RESOURCES: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?

    Update on the BABs Revamp - Will I Run a Sale?

    Hello again, friends! By now, some of you might be wondering…when exactly IS the BABs revamp going live? And the answer is…drumroll please… I have no idea. I know, I know–I can hear the collective groaning from here! I am thrilled by how many of you are SO excited for this revamp, and I promise you it will be worth the wait…especially because I’ve chosen not to rush. I could push to get this revamp out faster. I could neglect other things to focus on reviewing and tweaking BABs. I could push myself to work on it even when I’m not at my best… But I won’t. For several reasons, all of which I’m sharing with you today. And don’t worry—just because I’m taking my time doesn’t mean we haven’t made progress. So if you’re chomping at the bit for an update, you can rest easy—I’m giving you all the news in this special episode of Profits + Prosecco!   EPISODE RESOURCES: Need to boost your bookkeeping basics—and want to get in on the goodness before the price goes up?
