“Not a Numbers Girl” Type of Business Owner

I don’t come from a family that had a lot of money, so I never knew a business owner. I didn’t, you know, when I would tell my family that I would gonna, was gonna hire an accountant, they would laugh and be like, well what are they gonna count?

There’s always this joke about lawyers not knowing math or lawyers not knowing numbers.

And so I think I just fell into that. I couldn’t tell you how many hours I was working on a case. I would just give you like an approximate timeline.

It’s just not a very smart way to run a business. I was embarrassed that I didn’t know just even some of the lingo.

And so having my daughter really made me want to become more educated in my finances with my business because I really want to try to be there as much as I can.

She’s now three, they grow so fast. Financial, Fitness, Formula is for me, it’s a foundation of wealth.

She really broke down finances in a very easy way.

And after I started learning some of the words, some of the lingos profit margins, words that like, okay, I heard, but I didn’t know how it could apply to me,

Personal small business successes and emotions

I felt very empowered. I felt like, okay, I can actually figure this out.

The most positive thing that I gained out of the program was the fact that I know that I can make more money and work less.

There was these cases that I was gonna just stop doing and the reason I was gonna stop doing them is because they don’t bring in much per case.

And I always thought that me liking these cases was more of a like a charitable thing. Like in other words like I’m just so passionate about this that I don’t care if, you know, I don’t make as much money as I probably should be making.

But once I broke it down using the the spreadsheet, I realized that this, these were one of the most profitable cases in my office that was just like a explosion of my brain.

Like, oh my God, I can actually do something that I love and get paid more for it.

Now it’s like I wanna kind of shoot for opening specific types of cases. And the reason being is because there’s data behind it. 

The people that I’m helping get a happy lawyer, happy lawyer, happy clients, felt like a completely different person.

Like this year when it came to my taxes, like you should have seen my emails and my conversations. I think everyone around me was like, okay, what happened to this chick?

You know, on those forms where they say relation to business or who you are, I would always just put lawyer, managing lawyer, right?

Owner.

I now put like CEO and I do it really proudly.

The money I invested was totally worth it. Totally. I do have more time now to spend with my daughter.

She’s starting preschool soon. It’s something you can’t put a price tag on.

Time is just so precious and I think just realizing time, my time is so precious.

Thank you for teaching me about numbers and, and allowing me to say that I am a a lawyer.

Numbers girl.
