What happens when Congress passes a $3.8 trillion deficit-increasing bill by just one vote while promising fiscal responsibility? Blake and David break down the "Big Beautiful Bill" and reveal who really benefits—spoiler alert: it's not the middle class or the national debt. They explore QuickBooks' aggressive new AI agents rollout with price hikes up to 17%, examine why Tesla's CPA CFO earned $139 million in one year, and uncover how tariff-stressed businesses are weaponizing invoice rejections to manage cash flow. You'll discover why the time-based billing model is fundamentally broken in accounting, learn about the emerging "Next 12" tier of accounting firms, and understand why partners work the most hours while achieving only 6.9/10 job satisfaction.Sponsors Relay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/relayTeamUp - http://accountingpodcast.promo/teamup REFRAME 2025 - http://accountingpodcast.promo/reframe2025 Payhawk - http://accountingpodcast.promo/payhawkChapters(00:44) - The Big Beautiful Bill Act Overview (03:13) - Public Perception and Survey Insights (04:51) - Tax Implications and Specific Provisions (19:24) - National Debt Concerns (29:35) - QuickBooks AI Agents and Price Increases (32:52) - AI and Automation in Accounting (33:52) - Intuit's Earnings and Stock Performance (34:53) - Price Increases for QuickBooks Products (36:53) - AI Agents and QuickBooks Plans (38:01) - Impact of AI on Accounting Apps (38:56) - Intuit Enterprise and Accountants' Role (39:28) - Reframe 2025 Conference (42:40) - Big Four Transparency and Work Hours (48:18) - Tariffs and Invoice Rejections (54:52) - Big Four vs. Next 12 Accounting Firms (01:00:48) - Conclusion and CPE Information  Show NotesDo Americans Support Trump's 'Big, Beautiful' Budget Package?

"Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed." — Proverbs 15:22When it comes to managing money wisely, many of us could use some help, but how do you know you've found the right financial advisor? Today, we'll explore a few key questions you should ask when hiring someone to help you with your financial decisions. Sharon Epps is here to help us navigate that process.Sharon Epps is the President of Kingdom Advisors, FaithFi's parent organization. Kingdom Advisors serves the broad Christian financial industry by educating and equipping professionals to integrate biblical wisdom and financial expertise.How to Find a Financial Advisor Who Aligns With Your FaithFinding a financial advisor can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. With the right questions and a clear framework, you can confidently choose someone who aligns with your values, demonstrates technical competence, and offers a transparent process. Here are three things to consider when hiring a financial advisor who shares your faith and values.  1. Values Alignment: Do They Share Your Worldview?The most important starting point is finding an advisor whose faith informs their advice. There's a big difference between an advisor who is a Christian and one who actively discusses financial decision-making through a biblical lens.Key Questions to Ask:What role does faith play in your financial advice?How do you define financial success?You're listening for more than a respectful nod toward your faith. You want to know if they see money as a tool for stewardship, generosity, and Kingdom impact, not just a means of personal gain.2. Competency: Are They Qualified to Serve You?Once values are aligned, it is essential to ensure the advisor has the technical skills and experience necessary to guide your financial decisions.Look for:Industry certifications (like CFP®, CPA, CKA®, etc.)Experience working with clients in your stage of lifeKey Question to Ask:Can you tell me about clients you've served who are in a similar situation to mine?Good advisors won't name names, but they should be able to share stories of impact that demonstrate how they've helped people like you.3. Process & Compensation: Are They Transparent and Clear?A trustworthy advisor will be open about how they make money and how they work with clients.Key Questions to Ask:Can you explain how you're compensated—fees, commissions, or both—for someone like me?What is your process for creating a financial plan?They should be able to explain their step-by-step approach, timeline, and what you'll need to provide—all in clear, understandable terms. You want someone with “the heart of a teacher.”Ready to Find an Advisor?If you're beginning your search—or even considering reevaluating your current advisor—you can start at FaithFi.com. Click on “Find a Professional” to locate a Certified Kingdom Advisor® (CKA®) near you. These advisors have been vetted for:Biblical worldviewIntegrityTechnical excellenceYou'll also find a free downloadable PDF with suggested interview questions to help guide your search. You can rehire your advisor every year, and it's wise stewardship to evaluate that relationship regularly.When advisors undergo CKA® training, they begin to carry the weight of stewardship—not only for their own resources but also for how they guide clients to make decisions with eternal impact. That's the kind of advisor worth seeking out.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My wife and I want to set up a will. We have a son we support and want to make sure he gets everything. I talked to a lawyer who said trusts aren't necessary anymore and are expensive. I have about $300,000 in home equity, and I'm wondering about taxes and how he might handle the property.My dad recently passed away. My mom has been drawing on his Social Security because she didn't have enough credits from working. What percentage of my Dad's Social Security benefits will she receive as a survivor? What benefits will she get since he was a veteran with VA disability?Am I supposed to pay tithes on the income of my Social Security now that I'm retired?Now that my wife is retired and I'm almost retired, is maintaining a good credit score still important?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Social Security Administration (SSA.gov) | U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA.gov)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

I was hungry for language. And stories. And how to tell our stories. That's what this book gave me. But let's not make a Bible out of it.Today we meet Kris Kleindienst and we're talking about the queer book that saved her life: Diving Into The Wreck by Adrienne Rich.Kris is a 72-year old queer lesbian writer, bookseller, and activist.

Let's talk about something that often gets overlooked when life gets busy—how your home feels. I don't mean how clean or organized it is. I mean whether it feels like a soft place to land after a long day or just another place filled with demands and noise. This matters because your home should be more than just a roof over your head or a place to crash. It should feel like the one space in the world where you can truly exhale. A place where you, and everyone you love, can let down their guard and recharge. But if we're honest, how often does your home actually feel that way? For so many of us, it feels like another to-do list we can't keep up with or a space filled with chaos instead of calm. What if your home could be something different? What if it could be a place where you and your family feel supported, safe, and ready to face the world again? This week, I'm going to discuss when your home feels like another job and 5 small shifts to create a “safe place to fall.” You can read the full show notes HERE

It's easy for entrepreneurs to ignore the numbers when they feel overwhelming or confusing—but that avoidance comes at a cost. Financial disorganization doesn't just create stress; it can quietly sabotage growth, decision-making, and long-term stability. You can have a great product, a strong team, and real momentum, but if your finances are a mess, it all starts to crack underneath. The scariest part is how long the damage can go unnoticed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0xjIeE8c5g Chris Hervochon is a CPA and CVA who runs Better Numbers, a firm that helps entrepreneurs make smarter financial decisions. He works with businesses earning $500K to $5M, offering bookkeeping, tax support, and strategy. Today, he talks about simplifying finance for owners who fear numbers, and the value of integrating software tools. He emphasizes the need for clear cash flow planning and preparing businesses for potential exits. His advice: don't avoid the numbers—use them to grow. Stay tuned!

Life as a working mom can be nonstop, can't it? There's always another task, another deadline, another person who needs your attention. Somewhere in the chaos, it's easy to lose sight of what makes you feel good. Maybe you've thought about taking a break or even dreamed of a spa day or a quiet weekend, but the idea fades because it feels like too much effort—or too much to ask.

In this episode, Bryan Nelson is back for another insightful conversation about the trucking and language laws, and today, he talks about English proficiency requirements for commercial drivers and recent legal and regulatory changes!   Here's What to Learn From This Episode: English Proficiency Requirements: Overview of 49 CFR 391.11, B2 emphasizes that drivers must read and speak English to interact with the public and understand road signs; historical enforcement aimed to be employer-based. Concerns raised by ACLU and EEOC about civil rights implications during 1997 proposed rulemaking. Recent Executive Actions: April 28 Executive Order 14286 mandates FMCSA to enforce English proficiency within 60 days; CVSA reinstates out-of-service criterion. Regulatory landscape shifts toward roadside inspections, raising concerns about subjective enforcement by officers across states, affecting consistency and compliance. Operational Risks & Compliance Strategies: Increased potential for fines (500 first offense, 1,000 subsequent) and business disruption due to English proficiency violations - influencing insurance coverages. Recommended strategies for carriers include proactive English training, updating compliance procedures, and monitoring regulatory developments closely to mitigate legal risks and business impacts.   About Bryan Nelson Bryan J.

Here's the thing—your son is always watching, even when it doesn't seem like it. He's noticing how you juggle work, family, and all the other responsibilities on your plate.  He's paying attention to how you handle tough moments, how you celebrate wins, and how you show up every single day. What do you think he's learning from all of that? We often think about the messages we're sending to our daughters, but our sons are soaking up just as much. Have you ever stopped to wonder what he's learning about women by watching you? Or how seeing you work hard might shape the kind of partner or leader he'll be one day? And it's not just about what you're doing—it's about what you're showing him is possible. By pursuing your career while raising a family, you're setting an example of strength and capability that he'll carry with him for the rest of his life. How do you think that might change the way he sees the roles of men and women in the world? This week, I'm going to discuss modeling respect, equality, and emotional intelligence for our sons as well as teaching resilience, work ethic, and the value of connection.

A good understanding of each, along with their differences, is critical for anyone who works in accounting, finance and of course, accounts payable or accounts receivable.
