Everyone Feels Uncomfortable Talking About Their Business Finances...
So, let's get uncomfortable together! When you're a new business owner it's easy to put a lot of pressure on yourself to know everything, be good at everything, and 'fake it until you make it' until you figure it out. It can be hard to ask for help .. or even know WHO to ask for help.
Especially if you've been in business for a few years and your business financials are starting to become a bit of a hot mess. But let's keep it real, not asking for help could be costing you thousands of dollars every year. Listen to this podcast to hear Jacinthe's stories of tough business finance lessons she learned in her early business years and why she's now focused on helping entrepreneurs understand how their money works so they can make empowered financial decisions, shame and guilt-free!
