In this episode of the Self-Employed Life, I had the great privilege of speaking with Nesha Pai, author of the book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”. Nesha shared how she transitioned from running a fully remote accounting firm to empowering others to pursue their boldest dreams.  She further explains how personal tragedies deepened her mission. We explored the difference between courage and bravery, the “Four C's” framework she uses to guide dreamers into bold action, and how cultivating personal style and daily confidence practices can help us show up as the person we're becoming. Nesha's story is a great reminder that taking courageous, intentional steps—especially through life's hardest seasons—can lead to extraordinary transformation. Nesha Pai is the founder of Pai CPA, PLLC, a fully remote bookkeeping firm in Charlotte, NC.   She started her firm in February 2011,  and was one of the first in the industry to create a fully remote office model, along with giving employment opportunities to primarily to stay-at-home moms. As a single mom, sole owner, she grew from one client on her kitchen table to over 72 with revenues in the multiple six digits. In January 2020 , Nesha published her book “Overcoming Ordinary Obstacles”, which won the award in the Multicultural Non-Fiction category by the 2020 competition of the American Book Fest.  She is currently known as an international speaker, activating women and entrepreneurs to go boldly into the life of their dreams by cultivating the right tools to overcome the obstacles in their way. Nesha is a recent breast cancer survivor and was named one of the Top 50 Infulential Women in The Mecklenburg Times (2020 and 2024), on of Charlotte's biggest media publications.

When it comes to SEO, we have long known that you need to hire the best of the best in order to move the needle.

Our web developers in Texas, our Google Business Profile expert is in Ohio, and we have writers in a handful of additional states. That way, we can source the right talent for the job. The same is true in the legal field. In order to best serve your clients, as well as your operational needs, you might You might need to look beyond your own hometown for the right professionals. Continuing our Spotlight on PILMMA series, Mary Ellen O'Connor of O'Connor Law in New York joins us today to share some insights on remote hiring, her presentation topic at the upcoming PILMMA conference. Thank you so much for joining us today.   Mary Ellen Oh, thank you so much for having me, Lindsey. I really appreciate it.   Lindsey Well, tell us a bit about yourself and about your practice.   Mary Ellen So I am the owner of O'Connor Law, and we've been in business for almost 16 years now, and we represent injured workers in the state of New York. When they're injured on the job, we have five attorneys and a support staff of 25. So we've been growing particularly fast over the past four or five years, and it's mostly due to remote work.   Lindsey Well, and with that sustained growth and, you know, exponential growth over the past several years, getting the right people in place to... scaffold that growth and make sure that your operations are supported is necessary if you want to be able to build out and continue to grow long term. And so clearly, you know, as you said, you have hired remotely. Why do you consider remote hiring to be necessary in this situation?   Mary Ellen So I think that remote hiring provides you with not just the opportunity to open up the market to the best and the brightest, but also, from my own experience, I actually started working in 2005. So back when remote work was sort of, you know, not a non thing. And I remember when I got hired and they told me I could work remotely, I didn't actually believe them. So, you know, I know that when the CEO of the insurance company said to me, hey, why are you on calendar next week on September 7th? It's the first day of school, don't you have children? And I said, yeah. Yes, I've only been here three weeks. I don't have any time to take. And he's like, well, work from home that day. So I was like, I'm not allowed. I'm still on the six-month probation. And he was like, I'm the CEO. I just said to work from home. And it started a relationship with someone that had my full dedication because it provided me with an opportunity to never really have to give up being a mother and or being an attorney. Now, you really can't have it all.

Could Your Business Benefit From Crowdfunding Beyond Kickstarter? In this episode of "Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth," Gary Heldt interviews Paul Jossey, principal attorney at Jossey, PLLC, who specializes in investment crowdfunding. Unlike traditional crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter or GoFundMe, Paul focuses on securities crowdfunding (Regulation CF), which allows businesses to raise capital by offering investors actual securities - whether equity, debt, or revenue share opportunities. This revolutionary funding avenue, which went live in 2016, enables businesses to turn their customers into investors and create a movement around their brand. Key Takeaways → Securities crowdfunding differs from platforms like Kickstarter in that it offers investors actual securities (equity, debt, or revenue shares) regulated by the SEC, creating investor-customers who are financially invested in your success. → The crowdfunding campaign approach turns your company into a "movement" with loyal customers who become investors and ambassadors for your brand, compelling for B2C businesses. → Anyone can invest in crowdfunding opportunities (not just accredited investors), with statutory limits based on income protecting smaller investors while allowing broader participation. → A successful crowdfunding raise requires the business owner to be the primary salesperson, actively engaging their existing network first before expanding outward - the campaign won't succeed by simply posting online. → The timeline from preparation to launch typically takes 30-45 days (working with financial and legal professionals), with campaigns ideally running for no more than 3 months to maintain momentum. Notable Quotes "You turn your company into a movement. You get people that are not just a loan officer, but a bunch of people who want to see you do well." - Paul Jossey "This is a campaign. It is not easy, and you can't just throw something on the internet and people will come. I don't care if you are the next Steve Jobs, it does not matter." - Paul Jossey How to Reach Paul Jossey Website: The Crowdfunding Lawyers LinkedIn: Paul Jossey | LinkedIn Free Consultation: Schedule a free 30-minute consultation through his website Learn more about your ad choices.

"Proven" While many accomplished individuals have accredited their success to that of pulling up their own bootstraps, that is not the case for Chimeaka White. Looking from the outside, it may appear that her ascension to becoming a prominent attorney came about from her following the traditional path that most lawyers do. Yet, that is far from Chimeaka's reality. Her story expresses her faith in God, love and support from her family and friends, and an unwavering determination to win. More than anything, Chimeaka's story is that of someone who is “Proven”. Chimeaka has proven not only to others but even to herself that regardless of what circumstances she may face, regardless of what life throws at her, nothing will stop her from reaching her goals. Attorney Chimeaka White of Greensboro, NC, is the mother of two amazing adults, Harmony and Sincere. Chimeaka is a graduate of James B. Dudley High School. She also graduated from North Carolina A&T State University with a Bachelors Degree in Chemistry. She also received a Law Degree from North Carolina Central University. Today, she owns The White Law Firm, PLLC, located in High Point, NC, the first black female-owned and operated personal injury law firm in the Triad area. Her motto is “Justice4Pain”. Chimeaka comes from a long list of strong women. She says that her success can be attributed to several key factors, including her upbringing, which instilled strong values in her, and the mentorship I received throughout her career. “I am inspired by my maternal great-grandmother, Evelyn Watson, who taught me the power of love and patience. She lived slowly and simply. My maternal grandmother, Margaret Hardy (Momo) taught me the importance of cultivating a spiritual practice. She has a strong relationship with God and taught me how to pray deep, strong prayers. My paternal grandmother, Lois White (Mama White), taught me not to have anything that I don't plan on using. When you bring one thing into your house, remove three things from your house.” It should come as no surprise that Chimeaka is an attorney. As a child, she wanted to become a prosecutor. While attending NC A&T, she thought about pursuing a career as a dentist. Prior to law school, she worked as a paralegal at a personal injury law firm.  She worked alongside experienced paralegal Teresa Burney, who taught her how to manage car accident cases from the intake process to closing the file. This is where she gained her passion for the law.  Chimeaka says she made the decision to become an attorney because she genuinely loves to help people. “After being bullied in middle school, I learned how to stand up for myself and others.   I know how it feels to be voiceless, to endure pain due to being afraid of standing up for yourself. This is why I became an attorney to fight for the rights of others. I do not allow people to be taken advantage of. I am a voice for the people,” she says." Attorney Chimeaka L.

In our first monthly Q&A episode, Ryan and Thomas answer the most pressing tax questions from listeners. They tackle a variety of hot-button topics, including when flipping property income is considered “active” (and why that matters if you have a W-2), how partial asset dispositions really work, and whether or not a cost segregation study has to be performed in the first year. They discuss: - Flips & W-2 Incomes – Why these profits generally count as active, even if you're not a real estate professional. - Partial Asset Dispositions – Deducting the cost of replaced components (like an old roof) to save on taxes. - Cost Seg Timing – Is it necessary to perform a cost segregation study in Year 1, or can you do it later? - Short-Term Rentals vs. REPS – Understanding when you do (and don't) need real estate professional status. - Bonus Depreciation Updates – What investors need to know about the potential return of 100% bonus depreciation.
