Getting to the Bottom Line: Helping business owners maximize revenue, profit, and cash flow
Getting to the Bottom Line is the podcast for business owners who are done guessing at their numbers. Each episode covers the topics that actually move the needle: cash flow, bookkeeping, revenue, profit margins, budgeting, financial clarity, and making smarter decisions with the money your business generates. Whether you use QuickBooks Online or Zoho Books, whether you do your own bookkeeping or work with a team, this podcast meets you where you are.
Stephanie Smith and her husband, Kris, are bookkeepers and outsourced CFOs running New Light Financial Solutions together as a team. Together, they help small business owners get their books in order, understand what their numbers are telling them, and build a path toward the goals that actually matter. Stephanie & Kris are QuickBooks Online ProAdvisors and Zoho Finance Partners. They work with business owners across the country on everything from DIY bookkeeping support to done-for-you monthly bookkeeping and full CFO advisory services.
If you're a business owner who's tired of feeling behind on your finances, not sure if your business is actually profitable, or just looking for someone who can explain this stuff in plain English, this is your podcast.

Why Your Money Mindset is Blocking Your Cash Flow with Pericles Rellas
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this powerful episode of "Getting to the Bottom Line," I sit down with Money Mindset Expert Pericles Rellas to talk about the hidden beliefs and subconscious patterns that silently sabotage business success. With over 25 years of experience, Pericles has helped individuals and entrepreneurs reset their "financial thermostat"—the internal setting that dictates how much wealth we allow ourselves to earn, keep, and enjoy.
We dive into the four-step process to clear financial blocks, what it means to truly be open to receiving money, and why more income doesn’t always equal less stress. Whether you're constantly feeling behind, breaking even, or not enjoying the wealth you’ve built, this conversation will give you fresh insights and practical tools to transform your relationship with money—personally and professionally.
