  • This week, this guest episode is a bit different than the others in our summer series. This week is a replay of a training Bree Herman gave to my group coaching group all about keeping more money in your pocket.

    Bree, a bookkeeper and wealth coach on a mission to help female business owners maximize their profitability and cash flow without sacrificing their lifestyle. As a mom to her son Everett and wife to her best friend Chris, Bree understands the importance of finding that perfect balance between building a thriving business and enjoying quality family time.

    Together with her husband, Bree owns a homestead in New Hampshire, where they live alongside a plethora of furry and feathered friends, including dogs, cats, chickens, and horses. This down-to-earth setting keeps her grounded and reminds her of the ultimate reason for pursuing financial success – to live life on your own terms.

    With her wealth of knowledge and personal experience, Bree is uniquely positioned to guide fellow female entrepreneurs in making smart financial decisions that align with their goals and values. Get ready to be inspired, motivated, and equipped with practical strategies to take your business – and your life – to new heights of prosperity.

    I hope you enjoy this replay of this training and feel so much more confident about keeping more money in your pocket as a service provider.
