Ep. 126: The Accounting Career Move That Costs Nothing

A New Podcast Episode Is Here 

In Episode 126 of the CPA Career Path Podcast, Rosey Flaherty, CPA, talks with Trisha Nomura, CPA, Owner of Ascend Consulting LLC in Hawaii, about the career choices, opportunities, and simple decisions that helped shape her journey in accounting. 

Trisha shares how one college class changed her understanding of accounting, why she encourages students to explore the profession early, and why asking for opportunities can make a difference in your career. She also discusses finding the right coaches, gaining experience in different areas, and learning from multiple perspectives. 

🎯 What You’ll Take Away:
• Discovering in a single college class that accounting was about money, not the math she feared
 • Choosing coaches who work for you, not the firm, and asking for them directly
 • Turning “just ask” into a habit because a no leaves you exactly where you started
 • Building real grit by winning over the very client she used to dread
