As an accountant and a mom of a preteen, there are moments when both roles overlap in the most unexpected ways. Take, for example, Hurricane Helene. Just like in accounting, where we’re constantly managing unexpected financial storms, being a parent means preparing for unpredictable moments, especially with a growing, active son.
When a storm hits, whether it’s managing financial reconciliations or guiding my son through the chaos of school closures and power outages, the principles remain the same: stay calm, have a plan, and adapt quickly. In accounting, much like in parenting, forecasting can only go so far, there are always variables out of our control. Hurricane Helene served as a reminder of the importance of balance. Just as I help my clients weather financial uncertainties, I also guide my son through life's storms with patience and understanding. Both roles require adaptability, problem-solving, and a lot of patience. And, of course, knowing when to take shelter, when to push forward, and rebuild. Wishing for the safety of everyone and the swift restoration of even more.
