In this episode of Women & the Businesses They Own, I sit down with Melanie Willis, founder of Willis Bookkeeping Services – Clear Biz Clutter.
Melanie spent decades in the world of accounting, building expertise, trust, and deep industry knowledge. A few years ago, she made a bold and courageous decision — stepping away from the security of a steady role to launch her own business and serve clients on her own terms.
In our conversation, Melanie shares:
What gave her the confidence to take the leap into entrepreneurship
How years of experience shaped her approach as a business owner
The importance of clarity, organization, and systems for small businesses
Why “clearing the clutter” is about more than just numbers
This episode is especially meaningful for anyone considering a career pivot, starting a business later in life, or wanting to bring more order and peace into their financial world.
