11. Should I hire an accountant?

Starting a business is all fun and Canva templates… until HMRC sends you a letter and you realise your “finance system” is actually just three receipts and a gut feeling. In this episode, I spiral (productively) about whether it’s time to get an accountant — and how on earth to pick the right one without accidentally hiring someone who thinks influencers are a type of disease.

I talk Zoom interviews, dodgy spreadsheet attempts, accountant red flags, and the glorious day I finally found The One (spoiler: she has a dog and a sense of humour). Whether you’re freelancing, side-hustling, or just trying to understand what a UTR number actually is, this episode is your cosy, mildly chaotic guide to figuring it all out.

Get comfy, grab a biscuit, and let’s make taxes a little less terrifying.
