Do you want to start your private practice, but feel intimidated by the financial aspect of starting a business? This episode is for you!Today I'm joined by Becky Spence, an SLP who made an incredible pivot from owning a thriving private practice to becoming a certified tax advisor specifically for healthcare professionals and small business owners. Becky started her private practice, Achieve Therapy, back in 2014. After business boomed during the pandemic, thanks to her teletherapy, she experienced a bit of sticker shock despite paying estimated taxes throughout the year. She decided to head in a new direction to help SLPs, OTs, and other small business owners understand their finances, maximize tax deductions, and more!In this episode, Becky shares financial tips for setting up your business to thrive financially, including what our community needs to know about tax savings! As a speech-language pathologist turned tax advisor, Becky has a unique perspective on problem-solving and empowering others to succeed. Her journey into tax advising began when she faced the challenges of understanding tax systems and deduction strategies for her own private practice. It became clear that many start-ups and small business owners needed tailored, accessible support in this area. Motivated by this, she earned her tax advising certification to help fill this gap. Now, Becky combines her passion for helping others with an expertise in tax advising to support small business owners. Her goal is to simplify financial complexities, assist in maximizing deductions, and help create effective business plans and growth strategies. By offering personalized guidance and practical implementation, she helps business owners gain the confidence and clarity they need to focus on what matters most: growing and thriving in their ventures.In Today's Episode, We Discuss:Bridging the gap between clinician and CEOExperiencing major growth during the pandemicWho Becky works with and what exactly she helps withTwo tax deductions SLPs may not know aboutCreating your own retirement plan so you can comfortably leave your job If Becky's story resonated with you and you're feeling curious (or maybe even a little panicked) about your finances, I highly recommend booking a free 15-minute discovery call with her at SpenceTaxAdvising.com.Whether you want to start a private practice or grow your existing private practice, I can help you get the freedom, flexibility, fulfillment, and financial abundance that you deserve.

In this episode, we tackle one of the most significant financial decisions tech professionals face: knowing when and how to walk away from a job—whether that's to retire or move to another opportunity—especially when equity compensation is in the mix. We emphasize the mental and financial distinction between retiring permanently and transitioning to a new firm. Retirement means permanently stepping away from income and needing a long-term strategy to generate cashflow from your assets. Switching firms, on the other hand, is temporary unemployment with the potential for new income and equity.We walk through how to determine readiness for either scenario. For retirement, it's essential to assess total wealth, stress test sustainable spending, and build a reliable paycheck from assets. For switching jobs, we need ample cash reserves and liquidity, as job searches are unpredictable in length. Equity compensation plays a central role—particularly what we leave behind. We highlight the importance of reviewing company plan documents to understand if retirement will trigger accelerated vesting or forfeiture of RSUs.When it comes to timing, especially for those with stock options or RSUs, planning ahead is critical. If possible, we want to spread taxable events over multiple years to manage the tax burden more efficiently. We also discuss evaluating whether to hold or sell company stock after departure. The decision hinges on one's financial goals, income flexibility, and risk tolerance. Behavioral aspects come into play too—avoiding regret by making informed, goal-aligned choices and not falling into the “shoulda, coulda, woulda” trap.Taxes are unavoidable, but they can be managed with proper planning, especially when dealing with capital gains, ordinary income, and potential AMT from equity compensation. We stress the importance of integrating equity compensation into a long-term financial plan, using it to meet both short-term liquidity needs and long-term diversification goals.Company-specific events like IPOs, mergers, layoffs, or vesting schedules can all influence the decision to leave. Evaluating those triggers through the lens of your goals helps in deciding whether to act now or wait. Lastly, we return to the value of working with a financial planner and the need for intentionality. Walking away—whether to retire or transition—is rarely simple, and it's okay to find the decision hard.

Most people are chasing a retirement plan they'll never enjoy – or even want. Derek Coburn is here to show you a more meaningful path that doesn't require you to escape your life to start enjoying it.Derek is a best-selling author, founder of the Cadre mastermind, and a former financial advisor to ultra-wealthy clients. After 20+ years in the industry, he sold his firm, walked away from the grind, and redefined what true financial freedom looks like. In this episode, Derek breaks down why the traditional model of retirement is outdated, inefficient, and in some cases, dangerously misleading. We explore smarter tax strategies the wealthy use to future-proof their income, the rising wave of “unretirement,” and why fulfillment doesn't come from chasing a number… but from showing up with purpose. He also shares the story behind his newly released book, Let's Retire Retirement, and reveals the $50,000 mindset shift that transformed how he shows up as a father, a leader, and a man of faith. In this episode, you'll learn: 1.) Why 1 in 3 retirees return to work – and how to design a life you never want to retire from instead. 2.) The hidden risks of 401(k)s – plus the tax strategies wealthy investors are using to protect their future income. 3.) The time machine exercise that redefined Derek's relationship with time, money, and fatherhood – and how you can create special moments in your own life.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/242Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

In this episode of The Edge of Risk by IRMI, we explore one of the most complex and consequential aspects of captive insurance: tax qualification and compliance. Host Joel Appelbaum is joined by Allan Autry, CPA, and partner at Johnson Lambert, who brings deep experience advising hundreds of captive insurance companies across the country. Mr. Autry breaks down the essential criteria for qualifying as insurance for federal tax purposes, clarifying how those differ from regulatory requirements. The discussion covers key tax considerations in captive formation, the impact of entity type, and scenarios where tax qualification may not even be necessary. Mr. Autry also flags common pitfalls—from failing the risk distribution test to overlooking self-procurement tax—and shares thoughts on evolving tax strategies as captive insurance companies take on climate, cyber, and supply chain exposures. Whether you're involved in captive formation, management, or as an adviser, this episode offers actionable guidance on compliance, structure, and strategic planning.

In this insightful and highly practical conversation, Jeannette Linfoot welcomes back Chris Wilkins, an esteemed accountant and tax expert from Wilkins Southworth. Chris delves into his fascinating journey into the world of tax, from childhood inspiration to navigating complex international finance deals. The episode explores the significant "brain drain" of high-net-worth individuals from the UK due to recent tax policy changes, discussing the economic repercussions and the critical need for up-to-date tax advice. Chris provides invaluable guidance for various financial situations: from tax-efficient strategies for startup entrepreneurs (including VAT and partnership structures) to optimizing tax for multiple business owners. He unpacks the evolving landscape of property investing in the UK, detailing the impact of Section 24 and changes affecting furnished holiday lets. A crucial segment addresses the tax implications for unmarried couples versus married couples, particularly concerning capital gains and inheritance tax, and the often-overlooked necessity of updating wills upon marriage. Finally, Chris offers vital advice for those nearing retirement, highlighting recent pension and business inheritance tax changes that could dramatically affect legacy planning. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand and optimize their financial position in a constantly shifting tax environment. Top Takeaways Accountancy is a dynamic field, not just "men in grey suits." Staying current with tax legislation is crucial for effective advice. The UK is experiencing a "brain drain" of high-net-worth individuals. Changes to domicile rules are driving an exodus of taxpayers. Losing high earners impacts social services and the average person. The Laffer Curve illustrates optimal tax rates for revenue. Startup entrepreneurs can use VAT thresholds for competitive pricing. Partnerships can optimize income tax by splitting profits. Limited Liability Partnerships (LLPs) offer protection and tax benefits. Tax planning must align with legal entity structure. HMRC scrutinizes property incorporation schemes. Section 24 (Tenant Tax) significantly impacts buy-to-let landlords. Furnished Holiday Lettings tax rules have become less generous. Unmarried couples face distinct capital gains and inheritance tax challenges. Marriage invalidates previous wills in the UK. Pension inheritance tax rules have changed, impacting legacy planning. Proactive tax planning is essential to avoid detrimental surprises. "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail." Sound Bites "Life started from a tax point of view when my mum... went to see her accountant." "The image of accountancy is that it's like men in grey suits and... it's quite boring but it's not at all." "You gotta keep on reading about tax and learning about it." "There seems to be a bit of an exodus from the UK right now." "If the 1% the top 1% go, who's gonna pay the tax?" "You just gotta kind of block out the noise and just keep your eyes focused on whatever it is that you want." "I'm going in there to collect as much as I possibly can." "It's a very YouTube idea, I love it." "Recovery is very important in our sport." "Come as you are, leave as more." "Your struggles are not your limitations." "Bravery is speaking truth to power." "Don't just climb the ladder, create an elevator." "Embracing failure is a powerful gift." "Your will wouldn't have said I leave X to my spouse, 'cause you weren't married before. But now you are." "To know and not to do is to not know." "People who fail to plan, plan to fail."

Hannah Cole is back on So Money — and just in time. You may know her as the founder of Sunlight Tax, or from her game-changing workshops that help creatives and freelancers make sense of their money. But today, she's here to share insights from her forthcoming book, Taxes for Humans, which might just be the most approachable — and dare I say, funny — tax book you'll ever read.In this conversation, Hannah and I dive into the emotional baggage so many of us carry around taxes: shame, intimidation, even fear. She opens up about being dismissed by a traditional accountant early in her career, and how that lit the fire for her to become a voice for those often left out of financial conversations — women, artists, freelancers, anyone who's ever felt like a “weirdo” in the world of money.We talk about how to avoid the dreaded tax bill shock, what the IRS really cares about, why freelancers need to understand quarterly taxes, and what you should know if you're married and your spouse is handling the taxes (spoiler: pay attention!). Plus, Hannah shares the number one thing new business owners should do to feel confident and in control of their taxes.
