1834: Smart Tax Strategies for Creatives and Freelancers

<p>Hannah Cole is back on <em>So Money</em> — and just in time. You may know her as the founder of <a href="https://www.sunlighttax.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sunlight Tax</a>, 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, <a href="https://www.sunlighttax.com/book" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Taxes for Humans</em></a>, which might just be the most approachable — and dare I say, funny — tax book you'll ever read.</p><br><p>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.</p><br><p>We talk about how to avoid the dreaded tax bill shock, what the IRS <em>really</em> 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.</p> <hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
