"It's amazing what you can achieve when you don't have a choice".
For Richard Wheeler, Director at Sidekick Accounting, the secret to success lies in accounting with abundance.
Richard's journey to his current leadership role was anything but ordinary. From a rural upbringing to a highly successful banking career, Richard discovered the power of stepping outside his comfort zone to make a powerful different in his life.
This is a stunning conversation that highlights topics such as the power of curious connection, why true client success comes from looking through the windshield, not the rearview mirror, and how even the most introverted professionals can step beyond their limits and achieve unimaginable career success.
This is for anyone who wants to grow, profit and make a difference through doing things differently, and building the confidence to discover there is always a way to achieve your goals. There is an abundant world of opportunity out there...if you can learn to trust yourself enough to grab it.

In this open, brutal and jaw-dropping episode of Make it Count, Greg reveals the drama and heartache that accompanied his professional challenges, and phoenix-like rise from the ashes.
If you want to discover the secret path to success, making your dreams come true and becoming an inspirational leader in times of adversity.... and what happens when you discover you're swimming with sharks, then you need this in your life.
