What does a Big 4-trained CPA have in common with stilt-walkers and viral baseball? Dr. Tim Naddy breaks down how he went from public accounting to academia, entrepreneurship, and ultimately CFO of the Savannah Bananas—where games are full-blown shows and every decision is filtered through a "does this make it better for the fan?" mindset. He also discusses trusted-advisor skills, why creatives need financial armor, and how to avoid burnout while building a career with purpose. If you think accounting is boring, this episode will change your mind.
