S3E8: How to find balance in your firm
Ponder this: "The only people who get upset when you set boundaries are the ones who benefited from you having none."
How’s it feeling in your office right now? This episode’s guest says it’s like riding a rollercoaster. With just how hard accountants have worked since the pandemic, we’re focussing this episode on how to find a better work/life balance and dive into what’s getting in the way of you achieving it. From finding and keeping the right clients, to what you charge and the services you offer, to setting boundaries – you’ll walk away with a lot to think about and some actions to take to make it better. We also go through how to disengage clients, nicely, to make sure your client base is right for your firm. Amanda Gascoigne FCA, a CA ANZ member and accounting coach, mentor and consultant, joins Gillian Bowen to explain how to get off the treadmill.

“I'd love to see more small and solo accounting practice owners take back control. They've been so giving in those last few years with COVID. It's their time in 2023."
"We can't offer everything. What are we good at? What can we make good money at? And it's about evaluating what we're doing, what we're charging for."
"We've done so much with our clients over the last few years. It's time for us. That's my message. It's time for practice owners to really take stock of what they're doing."
