Join Heather Barnhouse, Partner in our Edmonton office, as she explores women in leadership and entrepreneurship, and the ecosystem that supports them. In episode 95, Heather welcomes Alicia Fowler, founder of MOD Accounting and Rayo Teams. Alicia shares insights from her journey building a values‑aligned, women‑led accounting practice grounded in feminist leadership. She reflects on launching a business during the pandemic, creating flexible and empowering work environments for women, and redefining traditional professional models through authenticity, trust, and modern technology. Alicia also highlights the importance of financial literacy, self‑trust, and embracing personal growth as essential drivers of entrepreneurial success. She discusses how MOD Accounting grew rapidly through a commitment to accessibility and values‑based client relationships, how feminist leadership shaped a supportive culture for her team, and how her second venture, Rayo Teams, leverages cross‑functional expertise to help organizations navigate leadership and operational challenges.
