The Better Bookkeeper Show

You Don’t Have to Know Everything to Succeed in Bookkeeping


Listen Later

Do you feel like you’re not “ready” to run or grow your bookkeeping business? Do you ever wonder if you really know enough to call yourself a confident, independent bookkeeper or firm owner?


You’re not alone and this conversation proves it.


In this honest and inspiring interview, I sit down with Nancy McClelland, CPA and independent business owner, to talk about impostor syndrome in bookkeeping, fear, confidence, and what it really takes to grow a successful firm.


Nancy shares her journey from becoming a CPA to going independent and why you don’t need to know everything to succeed.


In this episode, we cover:

  • Why impostor syndrome is normal for bookkeepers and firm owners
  • How letting go of “knowing it all” actually helps your business grow
  • The importance of hiring specialists instead of doing everything yourself
  • Why fear doesn’t mean you’re failing, it means you’re growing
  • The real value bookkeepers bring to society
  • Learning to trust your skills, your experience, and yourself


If you’re an independent bookkeeper or firm owner feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or doubting your worth, this interview will change how you see yourself and your business.
