What if tax season didn’t have to be stressful?

Or if the pressure you feel as an accountant isn’t a necessary part of the job, but something we’ve been taught to accept?

Imagine how different work could feel if we questioned these beliefs.

In this week’s podcast episode, I’m diving deep into the stories and mindsets that have shaped the accounting world as we know it—and why it might be time for a rewrite.

Whether it’s “tax season is always stressful” or “more hours mean more success,” these old narratives often go unquestioned, creating an environment where stress and burnout seem inevitable.

But what if they’re not?

In this episode, I discuss:

✅ The Tribe Mentality: How We Mirror Those Around Us
✅ Challenging What We Think We Know
✅ Why the 'Old Ways' Have to Die Out for a Sustainable Future
✅ The Choice to Change the Narrative
✅ Becoming a Smarter Accountant: How I Changed My Narrative
✅ Key Takeaway And Action Item
