Welcome
I'm so glad you're here.

This page is your home base for everything you need to know about working together. Consider it your go-to reference — whether you're in week one or month twelve.

I built Desert Soul Sisters because I believe female founders deserve someone genuinely in their corner when it comes to their money. Not just someone who balances the books, but someone who helps you actually understand them. That's exactly what I'm here to do.

Rooted in support, always. 🤍 Priscilla

Hi, I'm Priscilla~ Your bookkeeping bestie.

I'm a Bookkeeper + Cash Flow Strategist and the founder of Desert Soul Sisters Bookkeeping. I help female founders ditch the money fog and finally feel in control of their business finances — without the overwhelming jargon or judgment.

When we work together, you'll stop wondering if you've done enough and start knowing exactly where you stand and what to do next. That's the promise. Every single month.

📍 Based in beautiful Tucson, AZ · Serving clients everywhere

My promises to you.

These aren't just words — they're how I run every single client relationship.

🔍

Clarity, Always

You'll always know where your money stands. No confusing reports, no jargon — just plain-English answers that actually help you make decisions.

🤍

Zero Judgment

I've seen messy books before — honey, you are not the messiest I've worked with. This is a safe space. No shame, no lectures, just support.

📊

Real Results

Clean books. Accurate reports. Tax-ready financials. Your CPA will love you. And you'll love finally knowing what your numbers actually mean.

💬

Genuine Partnership

I'm not just your bookkeeper — I'm in your corner. When something looks off or an opportunity shows up in your numbers, I'll tell you.

Getting started is easier than you think.

Here's exactly what happens when we begin working together — step by step, no surprises.

1

Complete Your Onboarding Questionnaire

Check your email for your onboarding questionnaire link — it's where I learn everything about your business. Entity type, accounts, how money moves, payroll, all of it. Set aside about 15–20 minutes to complete it. The more detail, the better your books will be from day one.

2

Gather Your Documents + Grant Access

You'll need to provide bank statements (or grant view-only access), connect your accounting software, and upload any key documents. Your full checklist is in Section 4 below. If you have questions, reach out to support@desertsoulsisters.com.

3

Access Your Client Portal

Your Double HQ client portal is your home base — this is where your reports live, where you can message me directly, and where you'll find everything related to our engagement. You'll receive your portal access separately.

4

I Get to Work 🎉

Once all documents and access are confirmed, your 14-business-day onboarding window is officially running and I get started. The faster everything comes through, the sooner your books are in good hands.

⏱️ 14 Business Day Onboarding Window: This is the period we use to get everything set up and ready to go. It starts the day your onboarding email is sent. The sooner I have access and documents, the sooner we roll.

Your monthly rhythm.

Here's what to expect every single month so you always know what's happening with your books and when.

1st Start of Month

I kick off your monthly bookkeeping and send a request for any statements or documents I need from you.

7–10th Documents Due

All outstanding statements, reports, or documents due from you. The sooner they come in, the sooner your reports are ready.

Mid-Month I'm In the Books

Categorizing, reconciling, and cleaning up. I'll reach out via your portal if I have questions about any transactions.

20–25th Reports Delivered

Your Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Snapshot are uploaded to your Double HQ portal — ready to review.

📋 If documents are outstanding: I'll always deliver your reports on schedule. If items are still pending, your current report will already reflect any updates I was able to make — and you may receive a revised version once everything comes in. You can always pull the most current version directly from your Double HQ portal at any time. [Watch: how to access your latest report]

What you receive each month

  • Profit & Loss Statement — how much came in, what went out, and what you kept
  • Balance Sheet — a snapshot of your overall financial health
  • Cash Flow Snapshot — my plain-English take on what the numbers mean and what to pay attention to
  • Flagged questions answered — any transactions I needed your input on, resolved and explained

Documents + access.

Here's everything I'll need to do your books right. The more access I have, the less you have to manually provide each month.
