This week, I’m talking to Becki Freeman, founder of Lagom Finance. She offers accountancy services for female led businesses who want control, clarity and peace of mind over their finances.
We also chatted about the glories of trashy Netflix show Selling Sunset, and why talking about money is best served with cheese and wine.....
Oh, and FYI, “lagom” is a Swedish word which loosely translates as “just the right amount”. We talk about why this is such a great way to think about your finances later in the episode!
In this episode, we talked about:
- Becki’s journey from working as a full-time accountant - with all the stereotypical images that entails - to setting up Lagom Finance and working in a “female-led” way
- What a “female-led” accountancy firm looks like, and what that means for you as a founder and businesswoman
- Why understanding and planning your own finances is KEY to running a successful business, no matter what stage of business you’re at, whether you’re side hustling on your kitchen table or looking to scale up your global empire
- The most common blocks and mindset struggles female entrepreneurs often have around money, and practical steps on how to change that
- Why burying your head in the sand about your debt and taxes is NOT the best business strategy - and what to do instead
- What it means to “charge what you’re worth” and how to price your services and products in a way that works for you
- Busting myths on money identity and what it even means to be “bad” or “good” with money
- And the parallels between building a rock-solid business mindset routine and having a great relationship with money
This conversation was honest, practical, and a total must-listen for anyone at any stage of business (even if you think you're "bad" with money and numbers, like me!)
Grab a glass of wine and a plate of cheese, and get number crunching....you will not regret it! ;)
