As a customer success manager at Sustain Life, Joel spills the (fair trade) beans on how sustainability and ESG data platforms are revolutionising how businesses track their eco-footprint.
We’ll dive deep into the crystal ball to forecast the sustainability trends shaping the next two decades and explore how accountants can pivot to become eco-warriors.

From the nitty-gritty of ESG metrics to the tech marvels, Joel’s got the scoop. Plus, we’ll discuss how the new generation’s green thumb is pushing businesses towards ethical practices and how accountants can help small businesses meet these rising standards. It’s an episode packed with insights, and the ultimate takeaway: accountants can be sustainability superheroes too!

Strap in for a whirlwind journey through the financial vortex with "The Future of Accounting: Services, Pricing, Affordability, and Accessibility." Join us and the ever-insightful David Boyar, CEO of Change GPS, as we catapult into what the landscape of accounting might look like tomorrow. It’s not just about balancing books; it’s about breaking barriers!
We’re tearing through the tapestry of traditional accounting, where artificial intelligence and high-tech tools are not mere props but the heart of our narrative. Imagine a world where services are not only smarter but also within reach of every budding entrepreneur and established business alike. What excites us? The boundless potential of AI and automated systems to democratise data and decision-making. What scares us? The pace at which we must adapt and the potential for personal touch to fade in the rear-view mirror.
As we chart the new frontiers of affordability and accessibility, we'll dissect pricing models that promise not just to follow trends but to set them. We'll explore how these innovations could shape the dreams of tomorrow's business moguls and what actions we need to take today to prepare for a future where accountants are as much guides as they are guardians of fiscal prudence.
From navigating the nuances of AI-enhanced advisory services to ensuring every small business can afford the keys to the financial kingdom, we delve into how personalised services are evolving beyond the cookie-cutter approaches of the past. We wrap up with a reflection on the importance of financial literacy and wealth preservation, positioning the accountant as a lighthouse for generations navigating the treacherous waters of market shifts.
Dive deeper, question more, and join us online where the conversation never stops. The future is here, and it’s electrifying—let’s embrace it together!

G'day and welcome to Aly & Andrews All Aussie Accounting Adventures.
Well this episode is for absolutely everyone (as always, haha). Aly and Andrew are covering the divide for those early on in their careers to those in leadership and how the 'mindset of learning' is so critical. They hand to you on a silver platter their hot tips and pet peeves (and what you can do to turn them around) surrounding LEARNING, from when you are a junior and heading towards senior. (If you are in management and leadership these insights will be priceless).
It is 100% a mindset, so how should you approach it? How can you learn? Who you can lean on for support? all these questions are answered and more. So let's forever remain curious and get stuck into this new adventure with Aly and Andrew as they shoot the breeze about all things 'mindset of learning'. And hey if you're lucky Aly may even throw in some interpretative dance for ya!

We have farewelled Andrew, we have checked in midway and in this ep we find out all about the re-entry from paternity leave. Just like a rocket re-entering the earth's atmosphere, re-entry can be tricky so we wanted to unpack all of the things.
As always, there is so much more including how to help managers step into leadership and equity (hint, it involves transparency, communication, mentoring and creating a safe environment) and the tips and tricks to working part time.
So grab a bevvy of choice and join Aly and Andrew on their next accounting adventure.

The good times are rolling at XeroCon, as Aly and Andrew go LIVE. Yes they are like two kids in a candy store and yes they are living their best lives but they are also debriefing all of the content, tech inspiration, community and vibes that only XeroCon can bring.
We even bump 😉 into Amy and Ajack who download all the techy things and just like a good set of steak knives there is more as Aly and Andrew somehow managed to wrangle Will Buckley, Xero country manager of Australia and New Zealand, into the convo.
This is pre-wrap party so it is fresh and bubbly and definitely no hangovers yet (right Andrew 😜). So pop some Berocca and join Aly, Andrew
and friends on their XeroCon adventure.

In this ep Andrew lists out every possible way you can say NO (with the longest intro in history) and Aly now identifies as a cat (you have to listen to understand this one 😂).
They delve into their stories of when they didn't say NO when they should have, hint hint, ended in epic FAILS and also some WINS along the way. Ever noticed how saying NO allows you to say YES to the right things, the things in your wheelhouse, the things that are aligned to your why and bring the most value! you should try it 😉

Let's join Aly and Andrew as they work through their updated tech stacks. Yes they have already downloaded their tech stacks to you back in episode 3 but that was soooo two years ago and yep you guessed a few things have changed since then ... and also who doesn't love a chit chat about tech!
So join them as they sprint (feels more like a marathon) through the tech they use in their businesses, buckets and all the things. Also did Aly have internet issues or was Andrew playing with the audio, you decide, haha.
Go grab yourself a powerade with a protein bar (you'll need it) and join them on their next accounting adventure.

In this episode there are analogies aplenty, we dare you to keep up, haha. Aly and Andrew are revisiting their 'tech stacks' at a bucket level, it will make sense when you listen in (the nitty gritty detail is coming in Tech Stack 2.0 Part 2 to be released soon - I know you will be on the edge of your seats waiting for this one 😉).
They are placing the tech into buckets, lots and lots of buckets. Finding clients, Sealing the deal, Payments, Workflow, Execution, Collection of info, Delivery and Communication. This methodology helps to reduce tech overwhelm or what Andrew has coined "Toverwhelm" or "Toverload" 😂 and there are more references to ointments and cycles than you could possibly imagine, but hey, what ya gonna do about it, haha.
So why not sit back, apply your SPF50+ sunscreen with a refreshing cocktail or mocktail in hand and join Aly and Andrew on their next adventure.

G'day and welcome to Aly & Andrews All Aussie Accounting Adventures.
Join Aly and Andrew on this adventure as they bring a conversation around "Should I Stay or Should I Grow ".
Making an educated decision on whether to stay or grow your business is an important and pivotal one in your career and one that should be planned (like Aly) and not just a knee jerk reaction (like Andrew). It's a topic they are super keen on as they've both been small & scaled with great & not so great (let's face it shitty) outcomes over the years, haha. They go real, honest and hard as always.
So bring your camping chairs, hot cocoa, marshmallows for the fire & that bottle of whisky (or sparkling water) as we go on another journey together.
Heads up this is a live one with an online audience so there are times where we reference them so if you wanted to get the full feels visit the From The Trenches website and donate (https://summit.fromthetrenches.com.au/) to get the recorded zoom zoom version as it will make alot more sense, haha

We are back baby and bringing the sexy back with us, haha! So in this highly anticipated (😉 ) comeback episode Aly and Andrew get real and chit chat about how Covid has impacted their businesses, themselves and team, the wins and losses (it was pretty ship let’s face it). They wander into the all to familiar waters of work and family and the delicate balancing act it plays, sometimes they get it right, sometimes they don’t – who can relate?!?!?. And as always they lead with honesty, realness and openness with a few laughs along the way.
What do they want you to take away from this episode? That we are all in this together, check in with yourself and others, remember we all have good days and bad days as it’s all a part of the wonderful journey we are on and most importantly look after yourself!
So pull up a nice warm cup of hot choccy with marshmallows in front of the fire and join them on their next accounting adventure

G'day and welcome to Aly & Andrews All Aussie Accounting Adventures
Aly and Andrew recently went on an accounting adventure to get to know some of their tech partners a little better. To look behind the veil to see what makes them tick, why they do what they do and what they see the future may hold in our industry.
In this episode Aly and Andrew are back together to cause trouble, nah just kidding, we are interviewing Guy Pearson from Practice Ignition (PI). Guy is a chartered accountant, tech builder, problem solver, entrepreneur, space suit wearing all round good guy!
So what do we cover? Origin story, the tech he has built, the AHA moment that led to PI, what the future of the accounting industry and PI may look like and we bond over our love of numbers and people, yep Guy has officially joined our gang of ultra-cool not nerdy at all numbers loving crew.
So go grab your space suit or PI swag and cook up some meat and potatoes (ask Andrew about this one as for some reason he is bizarrely obsessing over them at the moment), find a comfy spot and join us on our next accounting adventure.

In this episode Aly chats with Ron Lesh from BGL, an absolute legend in the industry, and she lets you in on a little secret (hint: it involves a crush 😉). Ron is genuine, authentic, and truly cares about the accounting industry and is never shy of voicing his opinion which is what we love about him. He is a chartered accountant from way back, working in the profession for about 10 years, before moving to BGL in 1989.
So what do we cover? Origin story, how BGL has been able to pivot in the changing tech environment, what lies ahead in tech and our profession (hint: think automation, open banking, estate planning) and we round out with Ron’s favourite accounting adventure. Yep it’s a biggie.
So strap yourself in and get comfy and join us on our next accounting adventure.

G'day and welcome to Aly & Andrews All Aussie Accounting Adventures.
Aly and Andrew recently went on an expedition in their accounting adventures to get to know some of their tech partners a little better. To look behind the veil to see what makes them tick, why they do what they do and what they see the future may hold in our industry.
First off the ranks is Rob Cameron from FYI (aka Rob the magician). Rob has quite the background in accounting and tech which we delve into to find his greatest accounting adventure. We discuss the paperless office, cloud, ecosystems, automations, the future and so much more. We got quite a few insights along the way and many a light bulb and AHA moment. Aly also realised that Rob has been instrumental in her cloud accounting journey – go figure!
So sit back, grab your preferred bevvy of choice and join them on their next accounting adventure.
