It's finally Friday! If you can remember all the way back to Monday (I know, it feels like it was a long time ago), you'll recall we were delighted by two women with a bullhorn and a beat, serenading Ron DeeSantis with a catchy little ditty that goes "Pudding Fingers, pudding fingers, go back to Florida pudding fingers"... Well, we now know who they are -- Heather Ryan and her niece Kara Ryan. They've made their activism an official PAC, now called Bitches Get Stuff Done! You can join them at bitchesgetstuffdone.org. And they'll join us at the top of the hour! Then, of course we know there's no real climate change... But a Category 4 hurricane -- named Hillary, no less -- is headed straight for Southern California. Brad Friedman and Desi Doyen are bugging out... so we'll try to reach them on the road to find out wtf is going on!
A former full-time RVer, Heather understands the Workamping lifestyle, which gives her unique insight into special deductions and tax challenges RVers face.

Someone needs to hit Curtis with the paddles because that guy is flatlining. When Marshall starts to look interesting, you know there's a problem. Is the problem Portia? And has Trina become so used to being surrounded by stiffs that Rory seems interesting? Meanwhile, it turns out Felicia is the smartest person in Port Charles. And she's lovely. Also, Heather+Ryan?! Huh? Isn't that a little too much crazy? But you know who could use a BLT? Elizabeth. She's burning so much energy trying to hold up both sides of a scene. Maybe she should take one or two of those prenatal vitamins that are scattered all over the place. Couldn't hurt. And Nikolas might benefit from some Prevagen. Yeah, yeah, so would Gia and Keisha.

Heather Ryan is the owner of The Tax Queen, a tax firm supporting entrepreneurs and digital nomads. As a federally-licensed Enrolled Agent, she supports her clients year-round with tax preparation, tax planning and bookkeeping. She's been traveling in a 5th wheel with her husband and two dogs since September 2016. In this episode Heather tells us about being an enrolled agent and that means versus an account or CPA. We talk about the challenges of switching into a nomadic lifestyle and how she has grown her business while on the road. We get into how being a digital nomad herself allows her to better serve her clients and what her services offer over a more traditional tax preparer. There are a few things that we as entrepreneurs can do to make the tax filing a smooth interaction and Heather goes into the biggest issue she sees with clients and ways to solve those problems. We talk about how detailed our descriptions of individual line items need to be and several deductions folks often miss out on when preparing their taxes. Being a new entrepreneur myself I ask what a tax professional and client relationship looks like and when the best time during the tax season is to actually file your return. This episode is a quick one, but should give you some awesome insights to make your 2022 tax season one with a little less stress.

Baking then computer science, back to baking again, now finances, Heather is no exception to the truth that it's our winding paths that lead us to where we need to be. Being location independent brings with it some special challenges, along with the host of benefits. We know all about the flexible hours and the ability to chase the sun no matter the season, even if that part is way over glamorized. There's another side to the story, too. Your tax situation can get messy awfully quickly, and it's best to find out your obligations before they become a problem. And while you don't have to start with baking, but it's good to get a sense of the numbers in running a small business. There are also exams and an apprenticeship of sorts, plus annual continuing education requirements. It's a process and one that those of us who use accountants greatly appreciate.

Heather Ryan looks like an elementary school teacher, but for 14 years she served as a Special Agent with NCIS (no wonder she was so effective under cover and as an interrogator!). Now, she teaches effective safety techniques for women and offers innovative prevention education for men, from college campuses to organizations and corporations. Heather has a book called “Special Agent Mom” coming out soon, with stories from her days as an agent plus safety tips. I first met Heather in a mastermind we were in together in the fall of 2015 and we have been business BFF’s ever since. Heather worked with me to create her signature talk on safety and intuition and she was in my Stand-Out Speakers group coaching program in the fall of 2016. In this episode, Heather and I strategize ways for her to reach out to organizations, universities, and companies to hire her as an expert speaker and trainer. We talk about: The eye-opening experience that led Heather to join NCIS What it was like to be a manager in a male-dominated work environment The qualities that made her a good leader and interrogator The work Heather does now in her business My recommendations for what to include in pitch letters What works better than sending emails to get booked as a speaker Putting together speaking packages How to get momentum and buzz for you as a speaker, especially when you’re starting out Whether to contact conference organizers after submitting a speaking proposal Links: You can connect with Heather on her website at http://www.specialagentheather.me.

Heather grew up in Northern Indiana in the Southbend area. She lived with her parents and younger sister. Heather describes herself as a child of the 70s and her parents were hippies from the 60's. With her hippie parents she ate organic food from their garden and only had processed foods when she went to her aunts house, which she loved doing. There she could get white bread and potato chips! Her parents were into recycling and organic gardening and loved nature. She planned on becoming a teacher and never would have guessed that she would become a Special Agent and work undercover narcotics. Heather went into premature labor with her first baby and at 27 weeks was put on bedrest and kept her baby "cookin" until 31 1/1 weeks. She was prepared for having a small baby, who would probably need special care in the nursery, however, he was whisked away to the nursery but they quickly realized he was a healthy almost 5 pound baby who did not need any help breathing. So he was brought back to her room. She did have great difficulty breastfeeding and the Lactation Consultants at the hospital explained to her the specific issues premature babies had with breastfeeding. Heather feels she had lots of great support from her family, from the hospital Lactation Consultant that she saw numerous times, to the regular Breastfeeding support groups she attended, as well as her pediatrician. Heather shares with us her struggles and how she tried real hard for 3 months to make breastfeeding work. She had a baby that cried frequently and ultimately found out that he had some health issues with his intestines which was probably at least one of the reasons for the frequent crying. It was felt that perhaps there was something in her breastmilk that was bothering her baby, so she was put on an elimination diet, however, this did not help. She tried different formulas and ultimately would up using a very expensive hypo allergenic formula that he seemed to do well with. She combined pumping and formula went she returned to work, however, finding the time to pump during her working hours, did not work out at all and she soon discontinued pumping. She recognizes that some workplaces are better about giving their employees time and place to pump, however, this was not available to her at the time. Heather talks about what it was like returning to work with a new baby and why she decided to leave her position with NCIS and founded her own business so she could be home with her kids. She does say that most people in her life thought she was pretty insane to leave a great job with good benefits. However, she felt that it was the right thing to do for herself and her family. She spent time trying to figure out exactly what she could do and like most entrepreneurs, she took what she has learned and turned that into a business model and is very happy with what she has accomplished so far.
