I have to be honest… I am more stressed out than I have been in a very long time. Not only that, but I’ve been a bit hard on myself about it, because I make a point to practice what I preach, and much of the way I structure my business is meant to PREVENT me from getting into the kind of stressful period I’m in now. So I sat down and said to myself, “All right, Katie. It is what it is. This is the situation you’re in. Let’s pause and figure out how we got here, and how we can prevent it from happening again.” And when I began taking that journey back through memory lane, I realized just how MUCH changed in 2023…and how those ripples are still affecting my workload in 2024! If you feel like 2023 was so packed that you’re still scrambling to catch up in the new year, you’re not alone—and I’m here to share some of the ways I’m going to be shifting in order to make 2024 a year full of more ease and less stress.   EPISODE RESOURCES: Airbnb Listing: https://abnb.me/VaY6EG2t6Fb Want a peek behind the curtain into what it really takes to have a simple and scalable (and successful) bookkeeping business?
