Part Two: What the Numbers Actually Look Like (and Why That Matters)
Yesterday, I shared my January 2026 revenue. Today, I want to show you what most people skip. What happens after the sales? This is the unglamorous middle. The fees. The refunds. The ad spend that hits a month later. The credits that make zero sense at first glance. We need to understand these numbers going in and out. Because clarity beats avoidance. And systems beat vibes. In today’s short video, I walk through how I am using my Burn Bright Not Out Easy Bookkeeping Spreadsheet to track one income stream at a time. https://youtu.be/09tySgCqQhE Even though everything ultimately lives under one business account, I separate: -Amazon Seller -KDP -Skool -Etc. Not because it is tidy. Because it helps me learn about each income stream. When I can see each stream clearly, I can: -Spot patterns -Make calmer decisions -Spend less money reacting -Grow without burning out In the video, you will see: -How I set up a fresh year without breaking formulas -How I log income even when it is negative -Why fees and refunds are data, not failure -How the profit and loss tab tells the real story Spoiler: January was close to break even. That is not a problem. That is information. Especially when launching new products and paying upfront ad costs. This year, we are doing things differently. Instead of avoiding our numbers or trying to be perfect, we are building a simple habit. Once a month, we look back, capture, and track what actually happened. No catching up. No shame. No rewriting the past. I would love for you to do yours alongside me each month. I am adding this practice to our calendar now so it feels steady, supported, and doable. I am doing this alongside you. We are building this muscle together. As a gift to you, I am sharing the exact spreadsheet I use. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1K3B-qnVkrFMkpRq0zbrQNdT-7sH-pFi3m1PI7kgsVdM/copy

@Sybil Hall Did you ever figure out how to handle that "transfers" line item? I was shocked by how much that was. I read online it should be between .40-1.5%. Mine is showing up at 5%.😨

@Sybil Hall millions of questions - sorry (this isn't my thing so I appreciate you have made this). I noticed in the expense column you didn't put any negatives before numbers. Some of the numbers on the report are a positive and some are a negative. I'm just trying to wrap my head around differentiating them.

Hi there, Does anyone here doing Amazon Associate? I just picked this strategy up and trying doing it.

Big win today! 🎉 Celebrate with me!
I wanted to share a small but meaningful milestone from my Burn Bright, Not Out journey. This weekend, I stepped a little outside my comfort zone and brought our brand to a local holiday market at my husband’s and kids high school. It was a day full of festive energy, wonderful conversations, and the joy of connecting with others face-to-face. I made $340 in sales at the market, which was a nice little win. But I also want to share another big milestone: I recently had my largest journal order yet—209 journals, totaling over $3,100 in sales. FYI- I love being open about these numbers because I think it helps show that building these streams of income is a real, step-by-step journey. It’s not always huge leaps; it’s these genuine moments of progress. I’m so grateful for this journey and for all of you who are a part of it. Here’s to celebrating the small and big wins and continuing to burn bright, not out. Thanks for being here! Love, Sybil ❤️

Congratulations! Such an awesome accomplishment!🎊🥳🎉
I finally stopped mixing everything together.
Last November, I realized I was running multiple businesses like one big blended smoothie. Personal money mixed with business money, different projects sharing one account, and me “tracking” it all in a simple spreadsheet. It worked until it didn’t. I was making progress but I couldn’t see it clearly. So I spent the last year untangling it. One business at a time, I moved everything out of personal. Then I added separate business accounts. Then I created cleaner systems. Every time I made one small shift, I understood my business a little better. In 2025 I manually tracked everything on a spreadsheet. It was basic but it forced me to confront my numbers in a way I had avoided before. Now I’m ready for the next step. In the new year I’m moving my Journal, Book, Skools and Burn Bright Not Out business finances into Wave. I will be showing my setup live so you can watch the whole thing happen. No secrets. No pretending it is easier than it is. If you want to do this with me, comment below. We can talk about what you need, how to set it up, and how to hold each other accountable. This group is always stronger when we learn in real time together. I already coach a couple of clients in their personal finances through Monarch Money. That tool is perfect for personal budgets. Wave is perfect for the business side. I’m excited to finally build out my own business system alongside you. Don’t worry, Wave has much less complexity then Quickbooks! And who knows. This might become a future premium or VIP offer if enough of us want to go deeper with our finances and this helps! It is wild how much your life changes when you stop pretending the money will sort itself out. When you know what is coming in, what is going out, and you can track your progress on purpose, everything settles. We can build this together. Tell me below if you want in. PS: Wave is Canadian based and works in the U.S. and Canada.

This sounds interesting! Have you figured out what reports need to be pulled from Amazon for expenses/income? @Sybil Hall
