Welcome to The Concierge CPA podcast! I'm your host, Jackie Meyer, and today, I'm joined by two fantastic guests, Brian and Mary, for an episode packed with insights and inspiration. We kick things off with some exciting news as we talk about the first-ever Tax Twitter conference.

Our discussion goes deep as we dive into pressing issues in the accounting industry, including mental health, diversity, and self-care. We believe that fostering a supportive and inclusive environment is crucial, and our discussion reflects that passion.
