What Accountants Get Wrong About Creative People: Money School


Listen Later

If you're a creative professional and entrepreneur, you've probably had a negative encounter with an accountant before where they didn't take your business seriously.

In today's episode and the first segment of our Money School Series, I want to talk about what accountants typically get wrong about creative people and why you might feel judged or alienated when it comes to your financial statements. I'm also offering advice on how to break past your shame and get in control of your own money.

Also mentioned in today's episode:

  • Why accountants and creative people are so different from one another 2:45
  • Balance sheets and why they're important to creative entrepreneurs 7:14
  • What can happen when you present your profit and loss statement to the accountant 9:30
  • Gretchen Carder's story about her accountant 13:56
  • Having the power to control your own money as a creative 19:44
  • Why you shouldn't feel shame and why you're not broken 22:13
