SUBSCRIBE HERE | iTunes | Stitcher | Spotify Duration: 41:51

Hey you wild women! 

My guest today is Lisa Zamparo, a Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) in Toronto who helps female-led start-ups and self-employed women grow their profits and create a sustainable income. 

Her business, The Wellth Company, is a financial services firm providing tax, bookkeeping and CFO services designed for the way women work and communicate.    

Lisa wants everyone to be financially healthy and believes that wellbeing is the ultimate kind of wealth. The business world is shifting more to the idea of the ‘conscious capitalist,’ allowing for wellbeing to become more of a focal point for business owners where before it may have been left by the wayside. 

At The Wellth Company, Lisa works with a team of other female CPAs, bookkeepers and financial planners to work with you, not over you. Together they strive to empower female entrepreneurs with the knowledge to make their business, and themselves, thrive.
