Calculated Clarity—and the Courage to Bet on Myself
For Anastasia Rebro, buying the firm she helped lead was a defining act of clarity and courage.
What began as a decision to “run the math” became a pivotal step into leadership on her own terms. By purchasing Farnham Accountants & Advisors, she stepped fully into ownership, navigating risk, debt, and the realities of leading a business forward.
Making this dream a reality, and really scaling this business, was easier with banking experts who understand women-led growth.

In Calculated Clarity—and the Courage to Bet on Myself, Anastasia Rebro, Managing Partner of Farnham Accountants & Advisors, reflects on the moment she realized she didn’t want to watch the firm she loved be sold—she wanted to own it. What began as a spontaneous decision to “run the math” quickly became a life-changing step toward renewed purpose, ownership, and leadership on her own terms.
After securing the financing to purchase Farnham, Anastasia stepped fully into the realities of entrepreneurship: significant debt, personal risk, and sole ownership in an industry where that’s rare, especially for women. Grounded in a deep understanding of the numbers and a deliberate approach to growth, she focused on building sustainably rather than chasing ego-driven expansion—doubling the business organically over time.
As a leader, Anastasia moved away from perfectionism, choosing progress and durability over constant optimization. Through transparency, mentorship, and thoughtful changes to corporate culture, she created an environment where people feel valued as individuals. That same philosophy extends to her client relationships, where showing up as both an advisor and a fellow entrepreneur allows her to support clients with empathy, credibility, and shared experience.
Anastasia’s story is a reminder that success isn’t accidental: it’s built through discipline, intention, and the courage to lead with conviction.
