Cool Careers in Accounting Ep. 34 - Turning Experience into Expertise: A Story of Learning and Reinvention with Heather Esposito

Heather Esposito's career path is anything but linear: from special education to earning six Mary Kay career cars (including the Pink Cadillac), rebuilding after Hurricane Katrina, and rising into leadership development at major companies—before returning to accounting, earning her CPA later in life, and launching two businesses. In this interview, she shares how curiosity, resilience, and lifelong learning shaped every pivot, plus what she believes is changing fast in the accounting profession.
