After 4 years of experiencing all the amazing benefits that a virtual bookkeeping  business provided to her family (unlimited vacation time, ability to travel, no need to budget, upgraded lifestyle, brand new car, house with a pool and tennis court, paying off debt, etc) she decided to launch the Stay-at-Home Bookkeeper Academy where she could teach other busy moms to follow in her footsteps and create their ideal lifestyle so they could have their cake and eat it too.
