About this listen

In this episode, we break down the critical distinction between tax preparation—the backward-looking process of filing your annual return—and tax planning, which is the proactive strategy of minimizing your tax burden over a lifetime. We explore how simply "doing your taxes" in April focuses on compliance, while true planning involves year-round decisions like Roth conversions and income timing to keep more of your hard-earned money. Tune in to learn why moving from a reactive mindset to a forward-thinking plan is one of the most effective ways to accelerate your path to financial independence.
