    Do you want to be more confident at work?


    There is where you've been going wrong…


    Confidence sounds so easy to build. But in reality, it feels so hard to create.


    Because when you’re feeing low on confidence, there’s nothing worse than having someone say “you should be more confident”.


    Faking it until you make it isn’t sustainable...


    All the books and podcasts on confidence can’t help you when a client is staring you down and waiting for an answer...


    Practicing over and over takes time, effort, energy and….confidence...


    ...So how do you create confidence 'in the moment'?


    How to you get that boost of self-belief in the second you step up to the speaking platform, or into the client meeting, or when you need to challenge someone who has crossed a line?


    This episode of the Professional Superheroes miniseries of Make it Count will give you a totally new perspective on building bulletproof confidence with no faking, no awkwardness, no changing of your personality.

  • Today’s behaviours determine tomorrow’s results…


    Which is why - If you want to achieve impossible goals - you’re probably making a BIG mistake.


    Too many of us focus on purely obtaining knowledge. We believe we just need ‘the missing piece of the puzzle’ or ‘one final breakthrough… and then we will finally achieve the goal that’s been eluding us.


    But - as you will discover in this week’s episode of the Professional Superheroes miniseries - the REAL secret to success isn’t about the goal you’re trying to achieve…

    You're about to uncover the secret to operating from a position of velocity and power. You will learn how to take unstoppable, relentless action towards your goals…and we will reveal what’s been getting your in way, tripping you up and preventing you from doing what you know you should be doing.

  • What lights your fire? For Jamie Weddell, Advisory Partner Consultant at Xero, that question launched a career that has helped her give Accounting firms the technology and tools to achieve amazing things.


    Jamie brings a unique perspective in that she started as a Chartered Accountant in practice for 10 years, but she started to wonder if she could use her unique talents, ambitions and perspectives to make an even bigger difference. In her own words, Jamie wanted to "pick a different set of problems to have", which led her to undertake some soul-searching and career-searching, and landed her at a perfect destination: Xero.


    This open, brutally honest and insightful conversation covers topics ranging from career success secrets, ADHD, imposter syndrome and the importance of treating yourself in the same way you would treat your best client. Plus Jamie reveals the secrets as to exactly what Accounting firms need to start doing if they want to create more profit while freeing up their capacity.

  • Accountants have two lives: The second life begins when we realise we only have one.


    Jason Topp, Managing Director of SMYD Accounting is the embodiment of this message. Jason was always supposed to follow the family tradition of entering the construction industry, but destiny had other things in mind. A serious spinal injury as a teenager, followed by a death-defying car accident made him examine his true purpose in life, and set him on the Accountancy path.


    As this mind-blowing episode of Make it Count reveals, this journey was not easy nor straightforward. Jason bravely discusses the details around his burnout and mental health struggles, as well as the challenges and obstacles he faced staying true to his passion for living an authentic and purposeful life.


    If you've ever wanted to discover the human and purposeful side of Accounting then this is it. Jason proves once and for all the more passion you have, the more authentic you are, the the more you lead the life you want to live.... the more successful you will become.
