During this week's podcast we talk to my good friend Mrs. Shani Whisonant, the founder and owner of The Gloria Bakery and Begin with Butter. I already know you are going to listen closely to this week's episode, because Shani shares her journey to how she found what gives her the peace to be the best version of herself while creating lasting bonds with her children and having the support of her husband in taking a HUGE leap of faith to get there.

Y'all this episode had me going back and looking through several of my old journals and notes to see how tiny breadcrumbs from years past had been placed along the path to even get me to where I am standing today.  

This is an episode that is going to make you stop, reflect, meditate, and then take action to make your dreams come true all while following the path that works best for you and yours. Let this week's episode be the ignition that you need give yourself permission to say YES!!

During this week's episode, we are talking to a professional who knows her space and is actively shaping the minds of the next generation starting at 6 weeks old.  We are taking an honest peek at how Mrs. Trishawn Adams decided that Early Childhood Education and an At Home Daycare is what worked best for her.

Anyone who is a parent or is thinking about being a parent; anyone who is considering homeschool for young children; or you have children getting ready to start school in the next few years you are gonna wanna listen with ALL YOUR LISTENING EARS.

Trishawn not only tells us about ourselves as parents, but gives us things to tap into when dealing with these small impressionable minds. This is a candid conversation with some colorful language "not too colorful," but is a conversation that will help you put together your own checklist when thinking about placing your child when you have to go back to work or just get some work done PERIODT.

During this week's episode, we talk to one of my accountability partnas about the journey she has taken to get to where her accounting firm is today. Myranda J Harper-Penn is the Principal Owner and Founder of Harper Business Solutions, Inc based out of Raleigh, NC. 

She not only takes the time to break things down, but she will crack a face out of love in Jesus' name, just to help put you back together again and tell you that it is all in the process of "Reaching Beyond Numbers."  This is a podcast that you are going to WANT to listen to ALL the way to the end.  And I promise that you are gonna wanna run and not walk over to www.harperbusinesssolutions.com and see what they are all about.

Note there is some explicit language, but that's also what makes it worth the listen.

In this week's podcast, I get to conduct my initial interview with the President/Founder of EB Enterprises, LLC. An Electrical and General Construction Contractor in the DMV.  Ya'll I made it sound fancy, but hey it's "My Baby Daddy" I am talking to.  He actually takes some time and drops some decent nuggets that any business owner needs to consider and he shares how he learned that this entrepreneur space is definitely for him. Ya'll please pay no attention to how our 4th and final child tax credit likes to interrupt erry week.  

We appreciate you all for listening. 

In this week's episode we briefly discuss how you can save $$ by determining whether or not you should or should NOT hire a tax pro to complete your taxes for you.  You can save $$ by doing your taxes yourself and knowing that in some cases there is even software that will allow you to file for FREE.  However, don't get outta pocket, there are some folks that definitely need some additional support and getting a tax pro to help with preparation just may be a good.  

Listen and see which category you fall into.  Don't say I ain't letcha know.

In this week's episode we talk about what tax planning is really made up of and what it's not. We talk about some strategies that need to be considered and how tax planning is beneficial for both W2 employees and small business owners. We even have a guest appearance from one of my youngest Child Tax Credits. This boy always knows when someone is taping something and how he needs to slide in and make a guest appearance. LOL

If you think that tax planning is something you want to learn more about and see how it could benefit you in finding additional tax savings, feel free to go www.totaltaxexperience.com and "Schedule Appointment."

In this week's podcast I share some things you need to keep in mind as you get your documents in order for the 2022 Tax Season. If you want to get your 2021 taxes filed as smoothly as possible there are a few things you definitely need to do to make the process smoother.

You most definitely need to go to the IRS website and get a jump on taxes before the season opens.

You want to pull out your notice that you received for that 3rd stimulus and you need to be on the lookout for Letter 6419 if you received ANY Advanced Child Tax Credit Payments.

I also encourage you to follow ALL the rules your paid preparer gives to you so that you can get things captured correctly the 1st time.

In this episode, I introduce who I am and provide some background on what we will be discussing on this particular channel. It's my way of saying "HEY" I am in the neighborhood and don't mind if you stop through from time to time.
