Whether you are a business owner or self-employed, today's episode is going to save you some money. We're going to cover the 3 ways that your business could be overpaying in taxes and these reasons are anywhere from how the company is structured tax wise to failing to pay quarterly taxes to not be strategic when it comes to using business credit cards.

I wanted to record a longer deep dive episode into a topic that we've covered a few times but only scratched the surface on. Honestly, this could be a 5 hour podcast if we dove down every alley around lab testing and hormones but I want to give you the most important information so you can be informed to make empowered choices. We'll discuss everything from all the different types of tests to why it's important and how to be an advocate for your own health when speaking to your doctor or primary care individual.

My eye is back on its bullshit if you've been watching my stories and I had to get another surgery that hopefully will permanently allow my retina to reattach but it's a long recovery road ahead. Only being able to see out of one eye at the beginning was rough and it got me to thinking about today's topic. I want to talk about the concept of glimmers in your life and recognizing these small moments of joy in life and how this can be a powerful resilience tool for your life.

Whitney Shanahan is a national pro choice advocate and former Democratic Congressional candidate in California. However Whitney grew up conservative Christian in the Bible Belt. She left the Republican Party and her conservative upbringing after Trump won the presidency.
While pregnant with her son in 2019 Whitney was questioned about what she had done to cause possible pregnancy complications - while seeking help in the ER. Because at that time, the red state she was living in was working to pass a 6 week abortion ban. Whitney went home from the ER shaken and scared - she researched and found that hundreds of women had been arrested and detained for their pregnancies and miscarriages.
Whitney immediately became an activist. Whitney has led hundreds of pro-choice rallies across the country, launched a petition to defend abortion rights with over 270,000 signatures, and built an engaged community of over 500,000 followers on TikTok, and 40,000 on instagram- including pro choice celebrities like Rosie O’Donnell.
In 2024 Whitney ran for US Congress in California and plans to run again.
In this episode, we discuss Whitney's story, common misconceptions around late term abortions, what women need to know about no fault divorces, and so much more!

Through her online courses, the smart girls community and 1:1 coaching sessions, she specializes in supporting women through separation, divorce and the process of rebuilding.
After navigating her own high conflict divorce, the legal system, lawyers, mediators, arbitrators and private negotiation, she learned quickly that there was not enough support through the process or in educating women on everything they needed to know to be their own best advocate.

If you haven't, I want to get you up to speed and share a really powerful life lesson from going through what I have the past week or so.

Do you know how to spot a scam online? This is important because I see far too many women getting suckered into marketing strategies versus facts. You deserve to keep your hard earned money.

When I am asked how to make more money especially as a woman, today's episode is my go-to response. First, it's incredibly important to have a financial goal. Wanting to just make more money with no idea how much or where it's going is a recipe for disaster. Next, how many hours are you working a week? Truly working a week? If you are unaware of this true number, I have a free resource in the show notes that changed my life when I started using it consistently. Finally, is your money working for you or against you? We'll discuss all of these and more!

On a normal walk one day, I came across a couple kids selling lemonade (you can vividly picture this in prime summer time) and I unfortunately didn't have any cash or my wallet on me.

I want to share how you can decrease friction, effort, and sacrifice for your potential customers so they can buy quicker and easier and why this skill is so important to your success.

This episode might come off a little brash but this is important for you to understand if you are in this situation or thinking about getting into this situation.

As much as it pains me to say the phrase "female business owner", this topic needs addressed. As I've mentored other female business owners and see who crushes it and one's that get stuck, there's a through line I've seen and that is the role of the spouse. Whether they are apart of your business, going to be, or have their own opinions about your business, this might be the biggest decision you are faced with from a support standpoint as well as a growth standpoint.
