The Sharon Francisco Show
I’ve been thinking about starting a podcast for years. To share the good, the bad, and the ugly that I’ve experienced in business. I feel like it's time to share some of the lessons, and I hope that it will resonate with you, and that you actually take action so that you and your business keeps growing.
I’m Sharon Francisco, a business coach for bookkeepers, but what I talk about here on the podcast will help all sorts of businesses and business owners. I hope you enjoy it!

When the Common Denominator Is You — Leading Above the Line
Some business problems just keep showing up — tricky clients, cashflow issues, team turnover.
When that happens, there’s one question worth asking: what’s mine to own?
In this solo episode, we explore what it means to lead above the line — with ownership, accountability, and responsibility — and why our business results are often just a mirror of how we show up.
I share the story of a high-D leader who drove outcomes but couldn’t bring people with him, and a contrasting moment from my own business that showed how simple, human leadership builds real loyalty.
Because growth doesn’t start with fixing others — it starts with taking radical responsibility for ourselves.
Mentioned in this episode:
- What “above-the-line” leadership really looks like
- How High-D personalities can inspire rather than intimidate
- Why culture can’t be systemised without genuine connection
- The mirror principle — your business reflects your energy
- One question that shifts everything: What part of this is mine to own?
