Nancy Benet started her accounting firm out of necessity in a basement during the middle of a recession. Not exactly a recipe for success. But now, after almost three decades in business, she owns a thriving (and growing) accounting firm and the office complex that houses it.
She learned to scale a business through trial and error and by taking a front-row seat to her clients' successes and failures. Entrepreneurs with personal success stories are a dime a dozen, but Nancy brings a much more unique point of view to the table.
As a CPA and business advisor, Nancy has witnessed the internal workings and strategic decision-making of hundreds of other businesses. Her personal and professional perspectives combined have resulted in the wisdom she is sharing with the next generation of businesswomen. An accountant by day and inspirational speaker by night, Nancy’s passion is inspiring and empowering entrepreneurial women and ultimately helping them bring their dreams to life.

Adrienne is a writer, a mom, and the creative director of Success Your Way. Nearly ten years ago, after losing her corporate job, she started over as a freelance copywriter. One of her first clients was Nancy Benet, and that partnership grew into something neither of them could have planned. Adrienne likes to say she was Success Your Way's very first student.
She's passionate about helping women see their own power, choose their own paths, and get out of their own way. Again and again, in business and in her own life, she's seen what happens when women come together with a shared purpose. That's why she's so excited to be building the Success Your Way Community.
When she's not writing, you'll find Adrienne in her garden, at her sewing machine, or spending time with family and friends. Say hello on Instagram at @adrienne.freeland.

You don’t have to live the life everyone else is living—or chase the version of success you were handed without question. You get to choose what matters, what feels right, and what success actually looks like for you. When you stop following the script, you make room to build a life that’s aligned, intentional, and truly yours.
