I am pretty sure I'm not alone in this, but when I say the words, bookkeeping, taxes, accounting, spreadsheets, I'm going to guess that probably most of you that are listening to this feel the same way and have the same reaction to those words as me. Now look, I love a good system

if you don't already know this. But there are just some things that it doesn't matter how

systemized I make it. I still can't fall in love with it. I love numbers. I love spreadsheets. I've tried to do my own

bookkeeping and figure this out so many times for so many years. And when I first started a business,

I was like, you can't make me. You really can't make me. Nobody can make me. The government cannot make me.

The IRS cannot make me nobody can make me the government cannot make me the IRS cannot make me

you guys let me tell you systems do make everything easier but what makes everything in the world

so much easier to get through is a little bit of fun and some good solid education.

Today I'm bringing on an incredible guest.

She is an expert bookkeeper and not only is she an expert, but she's fun.

I went through so many different bookkeepers until I found my dear friend Madison.

She's incredibly knowledgeable and she's going to share some of the resources that she has with you

to kind of help you really get going and get super confident with your journey of taking care of your finances

and your business. You're going to get to hear a lot about my story, what I've learned,

and how far I've come with this, and I hope that it inspires you to be able to find an incredible

process and system that you feel confident in just like I have. You guys, it's going to be some kind of fun.

Madison and I have an incredible relationship and we've really hit it off, which is just a

funny and really odd thing to say about a bookkeeper. You're going to love her as much as I do.

So without further ado, let's go ahead and get started with today's special guest

episode with me and Madison Brown.

Systemize Your Life with Chelsea Joe. That's me. And this is a podcast for modern women who are

eager to live with more meaning and less overwhelm.
