  • Build a Second Brain 🧠Strategies for Bookkeepers & Accountants

    Build a Second Brain 🧠Strategies for Bookkeepers & Accountants
    Apr 22 2026

    In this episode, I share a practical and grounded introduction to the Second Brain concept, tailored specifically for accountants and bookkeepers. Originally delivered at the Sydney Accounting and Business Expo, this session explores how to better capture, organise and leverage the constant stream of information we face every day. If you are feeling overloaded, context switching constantly, or struggling to retrieve your best ideas when you need them, this conversation will resonate.

    • The Second Brain concept popularised by Tiago Forte and why it matters for accounting professionals
    • The CODE framework: Capture, Organise, Distil, Express
    • Practical tools including Obsidian, Google Keep, Evernote and voice memos
    • Using platforms like LinkedIn and newsletters as part of your knowledge system
    • How a trusted external system reduces decision fatigue and creates space for strategy, creativity and better advisory

    A Second Brain is not about adding complexity. It is about creating a reliable system that supports your professional thinking. When you trust where your knowledge lives, you free up energy to serve clients, think strategically, and innovate with confidence.
