What if the reason high earners feel stuck isn’t income, effort, or discipline, but a lack of education around how taxes really work?

In this episode of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka sits down with Jeffrey Hannah, founder of Hannah Family Solutions, to explore how high-income professionals and business owners unintentionally leave six figures on the table every year, and why it’s rarely their fault.

Jeff shares his unconventional journey into financial services, from early entrepreneurial ventures to discovering the power of proactive, planning-based tax mitigation. Rather than chasing complexity or hype, Jeff focuses on helping clients understand why structure matters, when planning must happen, and how the right team can change everything.

This conversation goes beyond tactics. You’ll hear why most CPAs are built for compliance, not strategy, how education creates freedom long before wealth does, and why long-term relationships matter more than transactions. Jeff also opens up about legacy, integrity, and what it really means to “choose the right” in business and life.

Why reactive tax planning quietly erodes wealth over time

The biggest blind spot high-income earners overlook

How education, not hustle, creates long-term freedom

Why proactive planning must happen before tax season

How simplifying decisions leads to clarity, peace, and purpose
