It’s so important to pay attention to your business finances. The reality is more simple than most entrepreneurs think. It’s so easy to get stuck sweating the small stuff that it creates this paralysis where you don't want to move forward, where you're hesitant, where you're overthinking everything.

I have a special guest here to clear things up and help you get started on the right path when it comes to your independent contractor business. Pam Pior is a brilliant, down-to-earth finance wrangler who guides you on the path to confident control of your money mindset and business cash flow. Pam knows what you need to understand and she cuts out the rest. She meets you where you are and takes you where you want to go with no unnecessary, complicated terminology or lingo.

Listen in as Pam shares more about

nurturing genuine relationships and adapting in the online space
implementing an upsidedown budget to align your salary with lifestyle aspirations
separating personal and business finances
the value of establishing a strong financial foundation
leveraging time, money, and energy for better productivity

This episode will show you that just getting started and doing some basic things with your finances will set you up for success. The more money you make, the more positive change you can make in the world.
