363: Avoiding W9 Form Mistakes Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Mompreneur, Freelancer, Accountant, Bookkeeper, VA, Business Owner, Or Self-Employed

Wed, 17 Dec 2025

The W9 form is an important form, and more than likely, you’ve either had a request for this form or, you yourself may be requesting them from your vendors.  This form is used to collect information about others, but knowing in advance that you need to request this information will not only save you valuable time, but it will also give you the information you need to file necessary and accurate documents for your business as well.  In today’s podcast episode, I am covering what the W9 form is, who you need to request it from, and what you need to do with the information once you receive it.  Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper or accountant, a virtual assistant or VA, or other professional; you will need this information for your business, and having an understanding about why you need this form will make an impact on you and your business.  The W9 form is one of the first steps in the process for filing your 1099s, and making sure you have this information can save you from getting penalties for delinquent filing requirements…

362: Turn Regret Into Strategic Growth Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Mompreneur, Freelancer, Accountant, Bookkeeper, VA, Owner, Or Self-Employed

Mon, 15 Dec 2025

Have you ever had that one memory that sits in the back of your mind?  That thing you wish you’d done differently? Something you didn’t say, something you did say, the opportunity you passed up, the relationship you didn’t repair, or the career move you waited too long to make?  Most people don’t just have one regret; they carry an entire portfolio of regrets with them.  And if you’re an accountant, a tax preparer, or you’re a high-stress professional, you likely have a detail-driven brain, and regret often impacts you a little differently. Because you’re used to precision. You’re used to accuracy. You’re used to double-checking before you file anything. So when your brain looks back at your life, it tends to audit every moment with the same level of scrutiny.  And suddenly? Something from ten years ago starts feeling like a mistake you should have prevented.  Today, I want to help you rethink the entire emotional experience of regret.  What it is, what it does, why it feels so heavy, and how you can use it in a way that actually moves you forward in life instead of holding you back.  More importantly, I want to show you how The RE*INVENTION™ Process helps you transform regret.  This is one of the top emotions we work on inside the program.  And my clients tell me when they do this work, they stop using their past as evidence of what they think has gone wrong, and start using it as fuel for their future.  Let’s dive in…

361: Differences Between Your Bank Balance And Net Income Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Freelancer, Accountant, Bookkeeper VA Owner Or Self-Employed

Wed, 10 Dec 2025

There’s often a misconception when it comes to figuring out what you’ll be taxed on in your business.  This is normally referred to as your net income.  Many business owners will take a look at their business bank account and think this is the number they will use for their net income or what they will be paying taxes on, but it isn’t an accurate way to look at it, and it causes a lot of problems, especially if that bank account balance is lower than the actual net income.  I’ve heard many times that business owners don’t think they will owe much for taxes because they only have a small dollar amount in their bank account.  In today’s podcast episode, I cover some of the main reasons why there may be a gap between your bank balance and your net income.  It may seem like your bank balance would be an accurate way to tell what you’ll be paying taxes on, but you’ll find out today what can cause this number to not match what your true profit and loss or net income amount.  Whether you are starting a business or side hustle, you’re a self-employed individual, a solopreneur, entrepreneur, mompreneur, freelancer, small business owner, a remote, virtual, online, or in-house bookkeeper or accountant, a virtual assistant or VA, or other professional, when you are trying to figure out what you’re tax liability will be based on, I want you to make sure you are as prepared as possible for filing your taxes, and you don’t have any surprises pop up…

360: Stop Living With Problems You Can Solve Whether You Are Starting A Business Or Side Hustle, A Solopreneur, Entrepreneur, Mompreneur, Freelancer, Accountant, Bookkeeper, VA Owner Or Self-Employed

Mon, 08 Dec 2025

Have you ever noticed that some problems just move into your life, and it never feels like they’ll ever be solved?  They take over your life, and you tell yourself things like, “Ugh. I don’t have the energy to deal with this right now.”  So you let them stay in your life.  Before you know it, the days you are dealing with these problems turn into months, and months turn into “I guess this is just how my life is now.”  Today I want to talk to you about those kinds of problems.  The ones you’ve just decided to accept, even though deep down, you know you could solve them. The ones you think are “too big,” “too complicated,” or “too exhausting” to figure out.  And if you’re an accountant or a high-stress professional, I already know you have at least one of these floating around in your life.  How do I know this?  Because I’ve been there myself.  Maybe you’re dealing with a problem at work.  It could be something that takes up a big chunk of your time every single day, but you haven’t changed because “that’s how we’ve always done it.”  Maybe it’s a habit, procrastinating on big projects, snacking on junk food late at night because you’re too tired to cook something healthy, scrolling at night when you know you need sleep.  Maybe it’s a relationship you’re not happy with.  It could be with a client, a coworker, or a family member, and you continue to tiptoe around it because solving it feels like it is going to be hard or messy.  Whatever you're dealing with, I want to help you understand one thing today.  You can solve your problems.  You’re supposed to solve your problems.  And solving them opens the door to opportunities you don’t even see yet.  This is the work we do inside The RE*INVENTION™ Process, not because solving problems is the point, but because solving problems is what creates the life you actually want.  Let’s dive in…
