Past the Balance Sheet is a podcast about the messy truth of business no one talks about. Hosted by Kash and Sassy , this show goes beyond the reports and metrics to explore what’s really happening behind the numbers — cash flow pressure, leadership decisions, growth that feels heavier than expected, and the emotional weight of building something that has to last. Each episode blends financial clarity with human context, creating honest conversations for founders, operators, and leaders who know the numbers matter but also know they’re not the whole story. This isn’t bookkeeping talk or highlight-reel entrepreneurship. It’s real business, real decisions, and real conversations — for people building with intention.
Kash & Sassy hosts Past the Balance Sheet, a business show with 20 episodes published.
