About Jamie Skinner

Most female founders aren’t struggling because they aren’t capable.They’re struggling because financial leadership starts to feel heavy when you don’t fully understand your numbers, and you’re still expected to make the decisions.Revenue is growing.Payroll is real.Hiring matters.Family life doesn’t slow down.And somewhere in the middle of all that, you’re supposed to feel confident about your cash flow, margins, and forecasts.That’s why I built The Confident Ledger™, a financial confidence and support community for female founders under $2M balancing business and family.It’s not bookkeeping.It’s not tax prep.It’s not someone taking over your financial leadership.It’s the layer in between.Inside the community, you’ll find:• Clear, real-world explanations• Founder-focused mini-courses• Ongoing Q&A support• Confidence Calls (live group guidance)• 1:1 Mentor Calls• A safe place to ask, “Is this normal?”, and get clarity fast.Because the goal isn’t perfect books.It’s confident decisions.I also provide fractional Controller and advisory support for businesses that need deeper hands-on structure, especially around clean financial systems, GAAP-aligned reporting, cash flow visibility, and building the right finance team over time.If you’re building a real business and want to feel calm when you open your numbers — without sacrificing your leadership or your family — you’re exactly who this is for.Hi I’m Jamie.I’m a finance professional, a founder, and a mom who understands what it feels like to carry growth and responsibility at the same time.I live in the Sierra Nevada mountains with my husband, our two young kids, a Golden Retriever, and two cats. I love staring at lightning storms for hours and capturing nature through my camera lens.And I believe female founders deserve financial confidence — not financial intimidation.
