Have you ever sat down with a plan for the day, only to wonder by lunchtime, "Where did all my time go?"

Have you ever thought a task would take an hour, and somehow it swallowed your whole afternoon?

Or maybe you keep feeling like this will be the week you catch up... only to find yourself even more behind?

If so, you're going to love this week's episode of The Smarter Accountant Podcast: "When Your Time Management Math Isn't Math-ing."

In this episode, I’m digging into why your time management plans often look great on paper but fall apart in real life—and why it’s not your fault.

Spoiler: It’s not about needing to work harder or be more disciplined.

This episode is especially for you if:

• You always feel like you’re running out of time, no matter how hard you work.
  
• You plan your days and weeks carefully but still carry unfinished work into the next day.
  
• You’re tired of feeling like you're "bad at time management" and want to finally understand what’s really going on.
  
• You’re ready to work with your brain instead of fighting it every step of the way.

I hope you’ll give it a listen—you deserve to feel in control of your time again.

You’re already smart. Let’s help your time management math finally make sense.

Have you ever said yes to something and instantly regretted it?

Do you feel guilty when you try to set a boundary—or worry what people will think?

Have you ever wondered how some accountants seem to protect their time without upsetting anyone?

If you’ve ever struggled to say no, you are definitely not alone.

And if you're tired of feeling pulled in a million different directions, I recorded this week's podcast episode just for you.

In this new episode of The Smarter Accountant Podcast, I’m talking about how smarter accountants protect their time and energy—without feeling guilty or selfish.

You work too hard to let your time be controlled by everything and everyone around you.

It’s time to start making decisions that serve you—and the people and work that matter most.

This episode is especially for you if:

• You feel like you’re always the “go-to” person for last-minute requests
  
• You constantly battle guilt when trying to say no
  
• You wish you could protect your time without damaging relationships or opportunities
  
• You know you need better boundaries but aren’t sure where to start

If any of that sounds familiar, you won't want to miss this one.

I’ll show you how saying no more often can actually make you a better, Smarter Accountant.

Have you ever finished a big project and instead of feeling proud, you immediately started worrying about what could go wrong?

Or gotten great feedback from a client, only to think, “Did I miss something?”

Or finally felt like you could breathe for a minute—and then caught yourself bracing for bad news?

If you nodded yes to any of these, you're not alone.

This week on The Smarter Accountant Podcast, I’m talking about something most accountants deal with without even realizing it: foreboding joy.

It’s that feeling of uneasiness when things are going well—like happiness is suspicious and you better not get too comfortable.
And while it might seem harmless, it could be costing you way more than you think—your joy, your energy, and even your success.

You’ve worked hard to get where you are—you deserve to enjoy it, not constantly wait for it to fall apart.

This episode is especially for you if:

• You struggle to enjoy your accomplishments without immediately thinking of what’s next
• You often feel guilty or uneasy when you try to relax
• You feel like you're always "on," even when things are going well
• You have a hard time trusting that good moments can just be good
• You want to start celebrating wins without fear tagging along

Listen to the episode now and give yourself permission to enjoy the good moments you've earned.

You’re already smart.

This will help you become even smarter—and a whole lot happier, too.
