For many business owners, sitting down to tackle the accounts or a tax return is right up there with watching paint dry. We understand—numbers can feel intimidating, confusing, and frankly, a distraction from why you started your business in the first place.

However, if you are serious about your business, you need to get on friendly terms with your finances. I Hate Numbers is a dedicated UK accounting and tax podcast designed to help you navigate the complexities of business finance without the headache. Hosted by me, Mahmood Reza, accountant and tax advisor, business coach, tax advisor, and financial storyteller—this podcast is here to help you move from dreading your data to using it as a roadmap for success.

Straight-talking Tax and Finance AdviceBusiness is ultimately about making money and having an impact. To do that, you need to understand the financial story your business is telling. We focus on:

Simplifying UK Tax and Accounting: We break down everything from Self-Assessment to Corporation Tax in a way that actually makes sense.

Jargon-Free Guidance: No "accounting-speak" or unnecessary BS—just practical steps to keep you on the right side of HMRC.

Profit and Growth: Understanding your numbers means you can see the impact of your successes and avoid common financial pitfalls.

Master the Meaning Behind the NumbersWith decades of experience helping thousands of businesses, Mahmood’s mission is to make business money management accessible to everyone. In the words of W.E.B. Du Bois: “When you have mastered numbers, you will in fact no longer be reading numbers... You will be reading meanings.”
