Go Listen on Apple, Spotify, or Your Favorite App!
Being a female entrepreneur today is certainly easier than it was when our parents (or grandparents) dreamed of starting a business thanks to the abundance of tools and information we have at our disposal. But it’s also easier than ever to compare ourselves to others by questioning whether we’re working enough, earning enough, or spending enough time with our family.
For today’s panel, I’m joined by two lovely ladies with years of experience in the world of finance. Megan Munsell is an Accountant & Fractional CFO and Karen Garner is a Financial Advisor with Roberts Wealth Management.
In our conversation, you’ll learn how they keep an abundance mindset at work and in their daily lives while handling all the challenges that being a busy professional brings with it. You’ll also hear their best tips on letting go of the fear and guilt related to money, and the impact an abundance mindset can have on owning your worth.
Who are Megan Munsell and Karen Garner?
Megan Munsell is a Certified Public Accountant and Fractional CFO. Megan chose accounting as her career after watching her mother struggle with entrepreneurship during a time when women business owners weren’t taken seriously. She left her distinguished career in Corporate America to pursue her passion of helping women entrepreneurs make decisions based on data, rather than“vibes” or emotions. Her holistic approach to accounting services empowers women to not only have accurate data, but also understand how to use that data to make decisions.
Karen Garner is a Financial Advisor with Roberts Wealth Management.
