Heather Smith on blending accounting services with a career in content


Listen Later

This week on the podcast Rachel and Lynne's guest is accountant Heather Smith. As well as consulting with small business, Heather has created a side hustle as a writer, creating content and writing some successful 'For Dummies' books. She is also a columnist for Acuity magazine. She talks about creating a career that uses her professional knowledge and how she's honed her writing skills, often using AI to help her in terms of ideas and a framework.

We talk about:

  • The tough editorial demands of the 'For Dummies' brand
  • How she splits her work between accountancy and writing
  • What she loves about the two careers
  • Where and how she finds her work
