Where creative businesses come for financial clarity.
Numbers designed for creative minds.
You’ve probably tried to “get on top of the numbers” before.
Maybe your tax accountant gave you generic advice that felt patronizing.
Maybe you've sat through reports that felt like they were written in another language.
Maybe you keep postponing this because it feels like it's going to take massive energy for minimal payoff.
Whatever your thoughts might be about the numbers, the feelings seem worse.
“Numbers make me queasy.”
Totally understandable. The language of accounting was created for accountants, not small business owners. (And TBH, don’t give you the whole picture anyway.)
Consider the possibility that you haven’t been able to see matters for YOUR business in a way that actually makes sense.
So all that anxiety and 'just hoping it works out’, and the worry about whether you're being a good steward of what you've built… It’s a problem with the accounting industry, and you’re not alone.
Distilling the useful and insightful numbers is what I do.
I’m like a marriage therapist for creative business owners and their businesses to communicate your needs with each other better.
And I’m pretty good at it.
“It’s not just about numbers. It’s about all of the things .... I’m a dreamer, I’m a goal person…. And you have a way to link a number to that, and to link several numbers to that.
And to me, that’s the magic part.”

Here’s what changes when you get friendly with your numbers:
You feel like a legitimate CEO, not just someone winging it
Nothing is hiding from you anymore. You can see symptoms before they become problems
The cash anxiety disappears because you can see 6 months ahead
You make big, bold decisions from a place of confidence instead of fear
You know where to focus your attention at the right time. No more drowning in an exhausting to-do list.
You stop tolerating what's not working because you can literally design better alternatives
And one more that I know is true but can’t prove: Your creativity experiences a renaissance because your headspace isn’t being used up by worry, second guessing, and should-ing on yourself.
By finding the core numbers that drive your unique business, and understanding what makes them tick, your decisions become grounded and intuitive.

Let’s talk it through
I've never met a business owner who had bad intuition. I've met plenty who had a hard time hearing it, though.
My goal for you to use your numbers to hone your intuition, so you're never at the mercy of the next guru.
You don't need fixing. 95% of clients come to me saying "I'm bad with numbers." Frankly, that's because numbers are usually taught by academics or accountants who need one-size-fits-all answers for every business.
What you need is someone who can look at the situation with fresh eyes, translate what's happening, and help you choose a direction that feels refreshing, inspiring, and do-able.
A heads up:
We can't separate the numbers from the emotional part. Your anxiety, your hopes, the face you put forward vs. what you're actually feeling. It's all connected. So we may talk about that too.
That's what this conversation is: Low pressure, highly useful, and usually a huge exhale.
Hi, I’m Megan
I’ve been focused on helping creative business owners understand their numbers for over a decade.
But more than that, I'm a guide and a teacher. I love helping people bring out their best.
I don't put people into boxes. I'm interested in you - how you got to where you are, what lights you up, and what breaks your brain. It matters because lord knows one size doesn't fit all.
My clients come to me because they want to be great stewards of what they've built.
And they're surprised to discover that understanding their numbers isn't about becoming a spreadsheet person. It's about reclaiming their confidence and trusting themselves again.
Let's start with a conversation.
When you click below, I'll ask you a few quick questions (no prep needed, nothing overwhelming). Then you'll get a link to schedule a call.
On that call, I want to hear your story: What inspired you to reach out? Are you at a crossroads? Have things gone sideways? Are you just finally ready to stop 'not knowing'?
From there, we'll figure out the right path for you, whether that's working together or connecting you with someone who's a better fit.
