How much money have you unknowingly left on the table for the IRS? In this episode, I reveal essential deductions that content creators often miss, saving you hundreds or even thousands of dollars each year. From studio gear and subscriptions to travel and home office expenses, I break down five quick wins and share real-life examples of creators who saved big by understanding these deductions. I also introduce the six expense categories every creator should know and walk you through the Creator Framework — a system to simplify your accounting process. By the end, you’ll be equipped with practical steps like opening a business checking account, tracking expenses, and managing receipts, all designed to bring clarity, confidence, and financial control to your creator journey.

In Episode 4: “The One Plan Every Creator Needs Before January Hits”, I laid out a framework to help creators align financial and creative goals through quick wins, 90‑day sprints, and a weekly CEO routine. Building on that foundation, today I focus on taxes — showing you how to avoid costly mistakes, claim the deductions you deserve, and keep more of what you earn.
