In this episode of Get Jasched, I’m joined by Australian entrepreneur and “One Percent Accountant,” Peter Ristevski, for a grounded, real-world conversation on navigating financial pressure as a business owner without sacrificing your wellbeing.

With rising costs, economic uncertainty, and increasing pressure from external systems, many leaders are feeling stretched, reactive, and overwhelmed. Peter brings nearly 30 years of experience to unpack what’s actually happening behind the scenes, and what smart business owners are doing differently.
We explore the intersection of financial strategy and emotional resilience, including how stress impacts decision-making, why avoidance can cost you more, and how to approach challenges without panic.

This is about how you can work through fear and operate with empowerment, structure, and making clear, grounded decisions, even in uncertain times.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why financial stress is at an all-time high for business owners
  • The costly mistake of avoiding your numbers
  • How to make better decisions under pressure
  • The importance of business structure and strategy (beyond compliance)
  • Building an emergency buffer and de-risking your life
  • The connection between money stress, burnout, and leadership capacity
  • Practical ways to stay grounded, focused, and resilient

If you’re a business owner navigating pressure right now, this episode will help you zoom out, refocus, and take your next step—without losing yourself in the process.
