You read that right, this episode is all about why you probably DON'T need an LLC or why you aren't quite ready to file for one. It seems everywhere in the online small biz/sw'er tax space talks about starting an LLC. But do you really need one? Maybe not.

Whether or not you ever file one you should be handling you money like a business and my upcoming course Stripper to CEO will take you step by step thru the process of getting financially set up like the small business owner you are!

*Quick Mentions/Corrections because I was free-flowing

-if you don't dissolve an LLC the IRS doesn't still want self-employment taxes, you will still be responsible for the yearly filing costs such as annual reports.

It's the age-old debate in the SW industry do you need plastic surgery to be successful? Will it open more doors, catapult your career make you more money? But the deeper question to ask is why? Why do you feel you need it, and if you've had plastic surgery why did you get it? If men like all types of bodies why do some clubs still gate-keep based on bs body standards? But most importantly how can you recognize if you're caught up a disordered relationship with food, fitness, and your body?

It's been almost a year since I've recorded or published a podcast episode. Like many of you my life has been in a state of transition since Covid. Over the past two years I left NYC to live with my parents for a year, bought a van, built it out and hit the road.

Sure on the surface this episode is about how I got hit by a car riding my bike into work Labor Day weekend of 2019, but its *actually* about so much more. 

It's about how random accidents mean less work and lots of medical bills but  less work means less money. It's about how years of strength training saved my ass by allowing my body to recover quicker meaning getting back to full hustle mode faster.
