    The Million-Dollar Tax Strategies Small Businesses Need to Know

    Episode Summary Most business owners are overpaying in taxes — not because they have to, but because nobody ever taught them the strategies available to them. In this episode of the What You Need to Grow podcast, Jennie sits down with tax expert and founder of Out of the Box Taxes, Courtney Epps, to uncover the tax strategies small and medium-sized businesses should be using to build wealth, increase profits, and stop leaving money on the table. Courtney shares how she built a $10 million company while making advanced tax education accessible to everyday business owners instead of hiding it behind expensive paywalls. From tax deductions and tax-free income strategies to the biggest myths business owners believe about taxes, this episode is packed with practical insights that could save you thousands. If you want to make more money, keep more money, and finally understand how taxes can become a tool for growth instead of stress — this episode is a must-listen.   Three Topics Discussed Tax strategies small businesses can use to legally reduce taxes How Courtney Epps built a $10 million tax company Breaking down tax myths and making high-level tax education affordable Three Key Takeaways from Courtney Epps Wealthy businesses often use strategies that smaller businesses are never taught — but they are accessible when you know where to look.  Understanding how to legally create tax-free income opportunities can dramatically impact long-term wealth building. Many business owners miss out on deductions simply because they were never educated on them.

Personal development can mask deeper wounds—but it doesn’t replace true healing.  Healing requires safe spaces and real conversations.

    Michael Babcock - Protect Your Business Assets for Growth

    Topics Covered Insurance Essentials for Startups Why new businesses pay higher premiums for the first three years, the importance of building clean loss history, and how to budget for insurance costs when every penny counts. Scaling Your Business with Insurance Strategy Understanding insurance audits, the critical importance of keeping your agent informed during growth phases, and how to avoid surprise audit bills that can disrupt cash flow. Choosing the Right Insurance Partner The difference between insurance brokers and captive agents, why having a trusted advisor matters more than a 1-800 number, and how the right relationship can save you time, money, and headaches. 3 Key Takeaways Get Insurance Early, Even When It Hurts Startup insurance is more expensive, but building 2-3 years of clean loss history gives you significantly more bargaining power and flexibility with carriers. Start as soon as you launch your business to begin building that track record. Your Insurance Agent Should Be on Speed Dial Don't wait for annual renewals. When you're scaling and making significant changes (hiring employees, increasing sales, expanding operations), call your agent immediately for midterm endorsements. This prevents massive surprise audit bills at year-end. Find Your Broker and Let Them Run Independent insurance brokers can shop multiple carriers on your behalf, unlike captive agents tied to one company. Find a broker you trust through referrals from other successful business owners, then build a long-term relationship where they know your business inside and out.

Distinguish between clients, connectors, and referral partners. Most people should be in your referral pipeline, not your sales pipeline.Alignment is EverythingFilter for psychographics and values alignment, not just demographics. Misaligned clients and partners cost you sleep, energy, and money. The right people will pay premium prices and cause fewer problems.Networking Requires a SystemSuccessful networking isn't about attending events and hoping for the best. You need a deliberate plan: know who you want to meet, why you want to meet them, what you have to offer, and how to nurture different types of relationships."Nobody ever says marathons are impossible. I can't run a marathon today... but they're not impossible. So when people say networking doesn't work, really what you're saying is networking for results is impossible. People are doing it.

    Why New Year New You Doesn't Work with Shiraz Baboo

    Why "New Year New You" Doesn't Work with Shiraz Baboo Topics Discussed Reality Intervention & Energetic Magic: Shiraz explains his journey from life coach to “reality interventionist,” helping people break free from unconscious addictions to struggle, lack, and self-sabotage. He shares how energetic magic works at the intersection of quantum physics and mindset. Addiction to Struggle and the Power of Replacement: The conversation explores how people unconsciously create problems to feel valuable, and how replacing the addiction to struggle with a focus on ease can transform one’s life and business. Personal Growth as the Foundation for Business Success: Shiraz and Jennie discuss how most business obstacles are rooted in personal issues, and how clearing personal blocks can lead to rapid business growth. Three Key Takeaways Your identity shapes your reality: If you see yourself as a “problem solver,” you may unconsciously create problems to solve. Shifting your identity can break this cycle.Replacing struggle with ease is possible: By consciously rewarding yourself for ease and success, you can rewire your mind to seek positive outcomes instead of struggle.Personal transformation drives business results: Addressing personal fears and emotional blocks can unlock new levels of business success, often more effectively than changing strategies or tactics.“Every consistent problem in your life is the solution for an emotional problem you’re not looking at. So when you figure out what that emotional problem is and solve it, the physical problem will go away—sometimes overnight.” - Shiraz Baboo Link to get your ticket for the Release, Reset & Reignite Your Magic for the New Year: Normally a $600 value, ticket is $97, but with the holiyay coupon from me, it’s only $27! https://badassdirectsalesmastery--energeticmagic.thrivecart.com/nye?coupon=HOLIYAY What You Need to Grow Podcast is presented by Badass Podcast Mastery and Jennie Bellinger, C.P.C.   Sign up for email notifications at https://whatyouneedtogrow.com Get all our guest's gifts in the Gift Vault at https://whatyouneedtogrow.com/giftvault Want to get paid to share your message with the world?
