285 The Niche River of Fear

Niching feels scary. 


The journey includes uncertainty, doubt, and overwhelm.

In so doing, you’ll reap the benefits of having made the traverse: new skillsets, capabilities, and tool to last a lifetime in your accounting firm, as well as the confidence that comes with learning, growth, and expertise. 


Get the single most important tool you need to make it across.
