What if the real challenge in building wealth isn’t income, discipline, or market performance but the lack of control most people never realize they’ve given away?

In this episode of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka sits down with Kish Rao, founder of KKR Wealth Group and creator of the Wealth Builders Interactive, to explore what it truly means to take control of your money and your time.

After more than 30 years in the tech industry, Kish made the difficult decision to leave his W-2 career just as his daughter was beginning college. What followed wasn’t a leap of blind faith, but a thoughtful shift toward systems, education, and intentional stewardship. Kish shares how learning to think differently about money changed not just his finances, but his peace of mind, family priorities, and long-term vision.

This conversation goes beyond strategies and labels. It’s about understanding money as a tool, building systems instead of chasing products, and creating stability that supports real life not just account balances.

💡 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
• Why control often matters more than returns
• The difference between storing money and investing it
• How systems create flexibility and confidence
• Why education not products drives better decisions
• What financial peace actually looks like in real life

Most people don’t struggle with money because they lack discipline. They struggle because no one ever taught them how to think about money how to structure it, steward it, and align it with a future that feels intentional rather than overwhelming.

In this episode of the Make Life Less Taxing Podcast, Daniel Hanzelka sits down with Gavin Wilson, founder of Wilson Crow Strategic Wealth, a family-office strategist who helps individuals rethink their approach to money through simple, principle-based frameworks. Gavin’s journey from professional golf to leading two financial organizations reveals how clarity, structure, and stewardship can radically reshape a family’s financial trajectory.

You’ll hear how clients discover hidden leaks in their financial life, why the “Four I’s” (IRS, Insurance, Investments, and Interest) quietly drain wealth, and how a shift in mindset often matters more than any single tactic. Gavin also shares the deeper mission behind his work: leading with service, building legacy, and helping families move from scarcity to abundance with confidence and purpose.

💡 In This Episode, You’ll Discover:
• The four silent inefficiencies that quietly erode wealth
• Why structure not willpower creates financial clarity
• How perspective shifts open the door to better decisions
• Why leadership, not product sales, is the missing piece in financial guidance
• The role faith and stewardship play in long-term confidence and legacy
