About Kelly Coughlin - CPA, CEO, Guest and Author
As CEO of EverydayCPA and a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), I help individuals, entrepreneurs, and creators turn their income into lasting wealth with smart, practical financial strategies. My professional background includes serving as Director of Risk Management for four investment management subsidiaries of Lloyds Bank in London and CPA at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC) where I developed a deep understanding of financial systems, risk, and strategic planning. Today, I lead a firm that provides tax, accounting, and business advisory services with a clear mission: to demystify tax, finance, and strategy to help clients succeed long-term—not just survive tax season.
I’m also the author of six books designed to equip adults with the tools to manage money, build savings, and grow personal wealth and a life with reduced stress and anxiety. My Tax Tips, Spending Tips, and Saving Tips Your Dad Never Taught You series offers bite-sized, actionable strategies for everyday financial decisions. My work extends to niche markets too, with The OnlyFans Talent Guidebook: Business Hacks and Tips Your Dad Would Approve Of, seeks to empower overlooked content creators trying to survive in a very competitive world, to treat their work like a real business not a business they should be ashamed of. My other titles, Dads, Daughters & Dirtbags and Christ and Caesar, blend personal and historical insight with business principles to help readers lead, protect, and prosper—in family, faith, and finance.
If my messaging can help you grow your following, I welcome the opportunity to appear as a guest on your podcast and streaming show. If your market is focused on personal finance, entrepreneurship, self-employment, side-gig, self-improvement, fatherhood, faith and business, and social commentary, my insight might benefit you and your audience. My interviews deliver real-world takeaways, straight talk, and a unique voice that combines the rigor of a CPA with the stories of a coach, father, and strategist. I welcome the opportunity to share my insights to help others live a happy, healthy, and wealthy life.

Most of us were never taught how to navigate taxes, spending, and savings wisely—and that lack of financial education comes at a high cost. With taxes consuming nearly 60% of your lifetime earnings, relentless advertising pressuring you to spend, and little encouragement to save, financial security can feel out of reach. For many, saving for the future seems like a privilege reserved for others.

Dads, Daughters & Dirtbags: How An Alpha Male Father Protects, Guides, and Empowers His Daughter for Life
This guide is for Alpha Dads who are ready to take an active role in shaping their daughters’ futures—not just hoping they’ll figure things out but ensuring they are equipped to make the best decisions. It is also for daughters who want to understand their fathers better, see the value in strong masculine guidance, and learn how to identify and select a well-balanced Alpha Male rather than falling for weak, toxic, or manipulative men. And for mothers, this book offers insight into the struggles fathers face when trying to balance strength, leadership, and guidance while raising strong daughters in a society that often discourages masculine influence in parenting.
I’m not claiming to be an expert in raising children in the academic, clinical, or theoretical sense. I don’t have a Ph.D. in child psychology, nor am I some parenting guru who preaches from a podium about the perfect way to raise kids. Instead, I’m an expert in the real-world experience of raising daughters, because I’ve lived it—and survived it. I’ve witnessed firsthand the unique challenges, struggles, and triumphs of raising strong, independent girls.
Written by Kelly Coughlin, CPA and CEO of EverydayCPA Inc., I didn’t set out to be an expert in raising daughters. I became one the hard way—through trial, error, and more than a few battles along the way. I come from a large Irish Catholic family—seven siblings in total. I had two older sisters, two younger sisters, and later in life, I found myself raising four daughters—three of whom were triplets. If that doesn't make me qualified to write this book, I don't know what does.
The Only Fans Talent Guidebook: Business Hacks and Tips Your Dad Would Approve Of
I wrote this book because I see a network of young women who possess incredible talent, beauty, creativity, and determination. You have assets—valuable ones that generate income, provide opportunity, and reflect your hard work and ingenuity. These assets, gifted by God, delivered through your parents, and refined by your own effort, are the foundation of your success. But just like any successful business, managing those assets requires expertise, planning, and strategy.
As an accountant with years of experience helping individuals and businesses, I know the importance of maximizing income, minimizing expenses, reducing taxes, maximizing profits, and building long-term wealth. I’ve seen firsthand how easily a lack of planning can derail success, and I’ve also seen the transformative power of financial empowerment.
Whether it’s helping you set up a proper business structure, file taxes, establish a W-2 paycheck, or secure a mortgage, my goal is to help you turn your creative and professional success into lasting personal success. I want to empower you to take control of your finances, avoid the pitfalls of tax and debt issues, and achieve the dreams you’re working so hard to reach.
