Ep 364: Getting Financial Flow: From Financial Fog to Freedom! How Microschool Leaders Can Build Systems That Save Time, Reduce Stress, and Create Sustainable Growth
Manage episode 485735913 series 2979821
Let’s talk about money—but not in a scary or overwhelming way.
In this episode of the Teacher Let Your Light Shine podcast, I’m taking you behind the scenes of how I went from financially winging it (and praying the numbers would work) to building a microschool with clear, sustainable financial systems. If you’re a microschool founder, homeschool hybrid leader, or teacher dreaming of starting your own school—this episode is your financial reset.
This is Part 2 of our Summer of Clarity series, and we’re diving deep into:
What my financial systems used to look like in Years 1–2 (hint: disorganized, reactive, and stressful)
The exact tools and habits that changed everything—like weekly finance check-ins, monthly forecasting, tuition dashboards, and hiring a bookkeeper
How creating financial clarity gave me the freedom to grow, hire, rest, and lead with confidence
What I’m focusing on this summer (and what you should be looking at too): compensation structure, tuition tiering, forecasting for a second location, and more
💡 Whether you're just starting or already running a thriving microschool, you’ll walk away with practical strategies to:
Stop guessing about your school’s financial health
Build a cash flow system that gives you freedom to make smart decisions
Eliminate financial stress and start leading with clarity
👉 Want access to the templates and tools I use inside my own school?

We’ll coach you through building your school your way—with confidence and strategy.
