Greetings fabulous!  Today we dive into the glittering world of personal branding with none other than the punk-rock-spirited CPA, Heather Zeitzwolfe. Between shared technical snafus involving the mysterious entity that is Zoom and confessing our collective affinity for AppSumo deals (they really should start sponsoring us at this point), we spent more time laughing than I ever have during an episode!  And yes, that image of us decked out in sequins and leather while balancing our checkbooks is 100% accurate - our personal brands are all about shining bright and rocking out, no matter what the ledger says. So pull up your favorite chair, slap on some of that old-school eyeliner if you're feelin' it, and get ready for an episode that juggles everything from our punk days listening to Social Distortion  to the taxing conundrums of being an Amazon Vine reviewer (who knew reviewing could be so, well, taxable?). Heather not only brought down the house with her tales of spicing up the CPA world with a dash of rebellion, but she also gave us a peek behind the velvet curtain of personal reinvention. Trust me, whether you're a rockstar at heart or a glitter enthusiast, finding your personal brand over fifty isn't just possible—it's a downright hoot. Let's crank up the volume and celebrate the fabulous, misfit anthems of our lives.   Thank you for joining us today! I'm having a blast creating Fabulous Over 50 & it would be an honor to have you share it with someone who would enjoy it. Thank you! Want more? You can go to the website and you'll find many ways to live your best life over 50!

Happy Belated Independence Day, or as I like to say, "Happy Birthday to My Favorite Sibling Co-Host!"  Yes, that's right, our own Annie Pruitt was Born on the 4th of July and we still totally let her think that the fireworks are all for her!   We had a couple of weeks off, ish, while Annie was in Europe with her family, but we have a HUGE new list of amazing topics coming down the pike soon, AND I promise that Doug Ferguson and Heather Zeitzwolfe will be back as well.   So - this character actor thing...Annie and I both approached our research a little differently and found some "rules" on what qualifies as a character actor role.  A fairly standard definition, like this one from Studio Binder, states, "A character actor is a film or television performer who specializes in portraying unique, offbeat, colorful characters in supporting roles. The term can be applied to actors who excel in one specific type of character or those who transform themselves for each role and take on a wide range of character types."  However, I found myself trying desperately to stay within the lines of these particular rules, as stated on New York Magazine's VULTURE site: ➼ The Jenkins Rule: If a performer has been nominated for an Oscar, that performer is ineligible. ➼ The Dowd-Martindale Rule: If a performer has won a lead or supporting actor Emmy, that performer is ineligible. (Winners of an Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor are permitted.) ➼ The Hahn Rule: If a performer currently works primarily as a lead, that performer is ineligible. Well, you will notice that Annie and I tried to yield to those "recommendations," and it's easier said than done, let me tell you.  Our list primarily consists of contemporary actors who are still with us, but I do pull one very classic actor out of the mix for my list.  and having said that, not only will we be bringing out a list of our Top Five Favorite Female Character Actors, but we'll be throwing out a few additional mixes because I'll be damned if we're going to have a character actor conversation which does not include Gary Oldman (come to think of it, he might even get his own show!).   Anyway - enjoy!!

Heather Zeitzwolf's creativity knows no bounds! That's why the fashion industry seemed like the perfect fit for her, until she realized that she preferred the detailed organization of numbers. After some time in market research, Heather found her way into accounting at a big firm. She discovered that the part she loved was helping her clients, interacting with them and helping reform their business - going beyond their annual tax returns. So Heather launched her own business in her 50s, focusing on service-based companies in the creative space: designers, photographers, podcasters, etc. She is now known as the Vegan CPA for Zeitzwolfe Accounting. Heather is having such a good time, she expanded it into her own membership called Get Radical Profit Growth Accelerator and events like the Plan Your Profits in Paradise business cruise. She also hosts her own accounting podcast, Get the Balance Right. Listen to my full interview with Heather Zeitzwolfe on Episode #53 of the Second Act Success Podcast.

Happy New Year - again!  My mastermind/podcasting/vegan accountant/fellow pop-culture/Gen X buddy is back - and that's my gal-pal Heather Zeitzwolfe.  This means - Heartthrobs and Tiger Beat Magazine is back! This week, Heather and I are talking 80's Heartthrobs you might have seen on the cover of Tiger Beat during the 1980s.  Sure, a couple of them possibly carried over from the 70's just a tad, but for me and Heather they were all 80's boys.  Now we both made it to college in the later part of the 80's so you can be fairly sure there will not be a '90s edition of Heartthrobs. It IS pretty interesting what constituted a heartthrob crush for each of us - we have various different reasons and stories behind each of our obsessions and it's HIGHLY Gen X because this was the big age of renting VHS videos from the local video stores.  Heather even started her own Fanclub, but we'll let you listen to that story to learn the rest! There are more livecasts coming up as well, so make sure that you are following me on Instagram (@krismaspeak) and for sure send us an email at hello@thetopfivepofcast.com if you'd like to comment on our lists or pitch an idea for the show!

Welcome to the last installment of our Stepping Into Your Authenticity Series. As a companion piece, host Heather Zeitzwolfe decided to take on a self-imposed challenge to go LIVE on Instagram for 45 days in a row. The catalyst for this challenge was to break through her fears of going LIVE. More importantly, she wanted to set an example for those in the audience who have been reluctant to try it.After receiving words of encouragement and numerous questions, Heather decided to wrap up the series with a few highlights from her experience. This episode is a hybrid that blends excerpts from four LIVES. The first LIVE featured was from day 29 of going LIVE on Instagram. The topic was influencer marketing and fraudulent followers. This conversation was a reaction to the documentary Fake Famous on HBO. The following segments, which are included within the hybrid episode, contain three dynamic women. First up is, marketing expert Nedra Rezinas for day 23 of going LIVE to discuss the importance of doing things differently to stand out in a noisy market. In this clip they chat about the power of informational interviews, taking a break from social media, and Mike Michalowicz's book, Get Different. Next up is a business coach and speaking expert, Caterina Rando. She joins Heather on her 39th day of going LIVE. They explore how to increase clients through public speaking and engaging your audience through a sales fountain.The last segment features marketing and Clubhouse coach, Katie Brinkley. You can often find her moderating rooms on effectively using Clubhouse to grow your business. As an early adopter, she has witnessed the transformation of social audio. She shared her expertise on the subject for day 26 of going LIVE.

Heather returns to Lady Time with her usual wonderful mix of down-to-earth zany-ness! Recently she set herself a pretty hefty challenge – a 45 day live instagram-broadcast where she went live everyday for half an hour or so..... that's a lot of content! It's one thing to record a podcast, edit and publish at your leisure but going live is a whole other animal! Why did she put herself through that, you might ask? Well, apart from the need to get out of her comfort zone, she had also just launched her Step into Your Authenticity series in her podcast. And while both are business related, it is relevant to anyone, especially women, wanting to find authenticity in anything they do. The challenge was especially authenticity-inducing in that she had to think on the hop and find inner resources and idea's that under that kind of pressure, has a tendency to bring out some wonderful raw material that - let's face it - people just love!

Many of us start out with one goal in mind when we become an entrepreneur- creating a business around something we are passionate about.  In fact “Follow your passion and build a business you love” is probably the most popular headline for a huge number of online business coaches nowadays.  It's a very seductive promise and a glamorous fantasy, but it is simply not enough to keep your business boat afloat. Now, don't get me wrong, passion is important, and maybe even necessary, especially in the beginning when you are scared shitless and have no clue, but unless you also keep your eye on the bottom line and balance your passion with profit, your business just might sink instead of sail.  That's why I invited my Portland pal and host of the Get the Balance Right Podcast, Heather Zeitzwolfe to chat with me today.  Heather is a certified public accountant, financial coach, and profit advisor who works with creative entrepreneurs and small agencies.  We both have a sweet spot for first-time female entrepreneurs in their 50s because of our own personal histories.  Her website lists her attributes as Rebel, Nerd, Activist, Entrepreneur, Goofball, Cult Film Afficianado, Vegan, and when I saw her name on the list of attendees for the She Podcasts Live conference I attended in October, I was determined to meet her. What you can look forward to hearing in this episode: Heather's non-traditional path to becoming a CPA in her 40s & starting her first business in her 50sWhy she works with creative solopreneurs and small agencies Our lively discussion on money blocks and why so many women have them How she makes it safe for her clients to be honest about their numbers, dispelling  money shame Connect with our amazing guest, Heather Zeitzwolfe! Free Workshop in January 2022 on Money Mindset: https://www.getthebalancerightpodcast.com/workshopGet Your Business Ready for Tax Time Group Coaching Program:https://www.getthebalancerightpodcast.com/taxtimegroupHeather's FREE Facebook Group for female entrepreneurs: https://www.facebook.com/groups/getthebalanceright/Website: https://www.zeitzwolfeaccounting.com/Podcast: https://www.zeitzwolfeaccounting.com/podcastAND here's how to connect with Diann: Are you ready to take things to the next level and work with Diann? If you need the focused attention on your business & life that is only available through 1:1 coaching, click here to schedule a free 30-minute consultation with Diann to see if her 12-week private coaching program is right for you. Free Consultation for 1:1 Coaching Before you bounce, don't forget to leave a review of The Driven Woman Podcast, so I can read it on a future episode!    Apple: https://apple.co/2BZDFzcAndroid: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/the-driven-woman-1194485

I think it's really important as women and business owners that we understand how our culture has conditioned us to have certain beliefs, expectations, habits, and behaviors that interfere with our ability to achieve our goals and be successful. Most of us don't even realize all the things that we are doing that fall into the category of people-pleasing and that they are killing our profits.  I'm willing to risk offending or annoying some of you because I think for those that are ready to hear the unvarnished truth and do something about it, you will be able to maximize your profits without even hiring me. We will cover a handful of obvious (and not so obvious) ways we leave money on the table,  limit our income, impose our own internal glass ceiling, and take a pay cut in our business.  We are going to dig into money mindset, imposter complex, avoiding the ask, pricing, discounts, bartering, raising your fees, and avoiding dealing with employees and contractors that are messing up your bottom line.  We also confront some of the more insidious (aka sneaky unconscious beliefs so many of us have, such as beliefs about money and greed, getting paid for our talents, and whether or not it's selfish to make money for something you enjoy doing,  Like all of my solo episodes, this one is a cross between a kick in the ass and a warm hug.  Hey, you don't need me to flatter you,  blow smoke up your skirt or polish your pinkies.  My specialty is being the Speaker of Uncomfortable Truths because I want you to succeed. If you are serious about making a living while making a difference, you need to pay attention to the unconscious habits that get in your way, and most of all, what you can do instead.

Heather Zeitzwolfe is not your Dad's accountant (unless your Dad's accountant has funky-colored hair, transforms tofu into delicious desserts, and geeks out on writing sketch comedy)! In this fun and informational episode, Caterina welcomes Heather, the vegan CPA. The two discuss Heather's entrepreneurial journey and how she came to embrace her authentic self as a new business owner in her fifties. Oh – and they share some great super tips for managing your business finances, too! Listen, learn, and get inspired.

Feeling restricted in her job by the time she arrived at midlife, Heather decided it was time for a change. At the time she did not consider herself a risk taker but the need for change was strong and so, armed with new ideas and a degree in accountancy, she set herself up as a CPA & Profitability Coach. Heather now works with women who want to change tack in midlife and move into business. She developed a shame-free approach to working with women as she has found that generally speaking, they are more inclined to be more hesitant to talk about money and have a tendency also to price too low for their services. Join us for an engaging discussion with this very vibrant and colourful lady! Biography Heather is a CPA and Profitability Coach who helps her clients take control of their finances. She's the host of the ‘Get the Balance Right' podcast. Heather has a strong passion for veganism, standing up for civil rights, and saving the environment. Her guilty pleasures include binge watching RuPaul's Drag Race and scarfing down salted caramel cashew ice cream. She's a ninja in the kitchen and can transform tofu like nothing you've ever seen. When she's not glued to her computer, she loves hanging out with her hubby and cuddling her cats.

My approach is the non-judgmental and shame-free approach. Through my coaching, I offer my clients accountability, support, and honest feedback.

Ask most anyone to describe a stereotypical accountant and the words vegan and pink hair aren't likely be the first that come to mind. Yet, these two words only begin to describe CPA, Heather Zeitzwolfe. As a long-time vegan, Heather works with her clients, many of whom are also vegan, offering services that include cash flow management, financial forecasting, budgeting, and profit management. Heather's passion is helping companies to not only stay afloat during uncertain times, but thrive by implementing simple strategies to keep comings in the black. Heather has noticed common errors many entrepreneurs make when it comes to running a business. One of the most common is that they let passion override the fact they need to make money and make a profit. Heather is a firm believer in “do no harm” to animals and will go to any length to assure animals rights are protected. https://www.zeitzwolfeaccounting.com/

The topic, on this episode of Get the Balance Right Podcast, is overcoming self-imposed limitations by breaking free from our fears and self-doubt so that we can take action as entrepreneurs. To discuss this, I am joined by John Davis, whose personal and professional life has all been about taking action. He's a Hollywood stuntman turned motivational speaker, known as the Corporate Action Hero and the host of the Inner Action Hero Podcast. His message is inspirational and stems from a tragic incident from his life. During his youth he injured himself and was told he would never walk again. Through pure determination and unrelenting action, which were fueled by the influence of Bruce Lee, he proved the doctors wrong. John Davis is living proof that you can achieve your maximum potential if you let go of self-imposed limitations. In this episode you will hear about John's personal journey and learn techniques you can use to break through your mental walls and start taking action. You'll also discover the internal struggles our host (Heather Zeitzwolfe) has been dealing with and how she is moving through them through to create dramatic changes ahead in her business and the podcast. To quote Tony Robbins, “Action is the most important key to success,” therefore don't let your self-doubt and fear hold you back.
