I Spent Years Being the Only Woman in the Room — Now I'm Creating a Different Experience

From corporate boardrooms to CPA firms, I know what it’s like to have your voice dismissed. That’s exactly why I built Phillips Business Group differently.

The Journey That Changed Everything

The Journey That Changed Everything

For most of my career, I was used to being the only woman at the table.

In corporate, I was often the sole female manager on teams dominated by men. When I transitioned into accounting, every CPA I worked for was male. In fact, I’ve never had a female boss in my entire career.

For years, I didn’t think much of it. This was just “how business worked,” right?

But as I became an entrepreneur and started my own CPA firm, something shifted. I began noticing patterns in the women who sought me out—brilliant, successful business owners who felt unheard, dismissed, and isolated in their journey.

They’d share stories that sounded all too familiar:

  • CPAs who wouldn’t take their concerns about overpaying taxes seriously
  • Being told they should be “grateful” for high tax bills instead of getting real solutions
  • Having their strategic ideas shot down out of fear rather than expertise
  • Feeling alone in their struggle to be taken seriously as the CEO, the mom, the role model their children are watching

That’s when it hit me: This wasn’t just “how business worked”—this was a problem I could solve.

Building Something Different in a Traditional Industry

Building Something Different in a Traditional Industry

What started with helping my father became a journey of completely reimagining how tax strategy should work.

Being a trailblazer in an industry stuck in its ways isn’t easy. I had to learn everything from scratch—advanced tax strategies that most CPAs never touch, systems that actually deliver results, and how to build a team that truly partners with clients instead of just processing paperwork.

The turning point came when I realized traditional CPAs were failing my clients.

I’d create comprehensive tax plans showing exactly how to save tens of thousands in taxes. But when clients took these strategies to their existing CPAs to implement, nothing happened. These CPAs were:

  • Too scared of the IRS
  • Too set in their ways
  • Or simply didn’t understand that the tax code is written to help business owners save money

My clients weren’t getting the savings they deserved.

That’s when I made a crucial decision: We would do it all.

  • No more relying on scared CPAs who wouldn’t implement proven strategies.
  • No more leaving money on the table because someone else was too afraid to act.
  • We became the complete solution—strategy, implementation, ongoing partnership—everything needed to ensure our clients actually keep more of what they earn.

Over the years, I’ve poured my knowledge into training my team, creating systems, and empowering other women to deliver this level of service. I believe a rising tide lifts all ships, and building a team of empowered women who understand what it means to be heard and respected has been one of my proudest achievements.

It's Not IF You Can Save-It's How Much

It's Not IF It's How Much

Here’s what years of doing this work has taught me: If you own a profitable business and you’re paying taxes, you’re overpaying. Period.

This isn’t a maybe. It’s not a “let’s see what we can find.” It’s a certainty.

99.5% of the tax code is written to help you save money on taxes. But most CPAs are too scared of the IRS or too stuck in compliance mode to use these strategies.

I’ve seen it with every single profitable business owner I’ve worked with—especially those paying $100,000 or more in taxes annually. The opportunities are there, waiting to be claimed.

While you’re juggling being the CEO, the mom, the role model your children are watching, the last thing you should worry about is whether your CPA is actually fighting for your money. You deserve a true partner who understands that keeping more of what you earn isn’t just about the money—it’s about the freedom, the security, and the example you’re setting.

You shouldn’t have to choose between being respected and getting results. You shouldn’t have to feel alone in this journey.

That’s why I built Phillips Business Group with a predominantly female team who gets it. We don’t just prepare your taxes—we ensure you keep what’s rightfully yours while treating you like the successful entrepreneur you are.
