Financial conversations are easier when judgment leaves the room.

Lynda McDonell

Growing up, Lynda’s dad worked in finance, and she spent many childhood days in his office. She never questioned whether she belonged in that world — until she realized how many women were raised to feel like they didn’t.

She spent years in the corporate world, first training and working as a CPA, then moving into senior finance leadership for a Fortune 100 company. Her purpose found her when a friend asked, “Lynda, will you coach me?”

There is a difference between a tax accountant and a financial accountant. A tax accountant focuses on compliance — returns, filings, obligations. A financial accountant looks at the health and direction of a business. Lynda comes from the financial side, so her focus has always been helping businesses run better, not just stay compliant.

Her approach

• Look at the big picture. Business and personal finances, seen together.
• Create smart systems. Simple, sustainable systems so the business serves your life.
• Change how you think about money. Confident decisions without second-guessing.

The team

Lynda personally works with each client, supported behind the scenes by a team of professionals across the U.S. who care about your business as much as she does.
