From Overwhelm to Ownership: Bookkeeping Basics for Tradies

Season #1 Episode #7

Tara Lieschke from Perth's Art of Numbers Bookkeeping discusses Long days on site, juggling jobs, quotes, invoices, and those sneaky fuel dockets — then getting home only to face more paperwork? Yep, we see you. In this episode, we dive into the everyday reality most tradies and small business owners face: the endless admin, the bookkeeping blues, and why it all feels so overwhelming.

But here’s the good news — it doesn’t have to stay that way. Tara breaks down the emotional load behind bookkeeping avoidance and shares a fresh, empowering perspective on how to turn your numbers from a stressor into a strength. This isn’t about making you love spreadsheets — it’s about making them work for you.

Whether you're buried under receipts or just want to take back control of your cash flow, this episode is your first step to feeling lighter and more confident in your business.
