Shownotes

In this episode of the Wealth Witches Podcast, Katelyn explains the difference between financial tips and financial strategy, and why knowing the “why” behind your money decisions is what actually supports business growth.

She walks through how systems, reporting, and financial structure connect to your personal goals, business model, and long-term plans.

The episode covers how to read key reports like your Profit & Loss statement and Balance Sheet, why categorizing transactions isn’t enough on its own, and how understanding your numbers leads to better decisions about growth, hiring, and profitability.

This is a foundational episode for business owners who want to move beyond surface-level advice and build a financial strategy that aligns with their goals.

Key Takeaways

  1. Tips are tasks. Strategy is understanding why those tasks matter.
  2. Financial decisions should align with your personal and business goals.
  3. Bookkeeping without understanding reports limits your growth potential.
  4. Your Profit & Loss shows profitability trends and spending patterns.
  5. Your Balance Sheet reflects what you own, owe, and take from the business.
  6. Clear financial reporting supports better hiring, pricing, and growth decisions.
