Stop Guessing Your Taxes

Most massage therapists don’t have a tax problem… they have a system problem. In this episode, Amy Bradley Radford breaks down why tax season feels so overwhelming—and why it has very little to do with taxes themselves. If you’ve ever found yourself scrambling in March, missing deductions, unsure where your money went, or feeling like your business isn’t actually supporting you the way it should, this conversation will shift how you see everything. This isn’t about complicated accounting or learning tax forms. It’s about understanding how your daily habits, your spending patterns, and your money flow inside your business are either working for you… or quietly working against you. Amy walks through the foundational systems that make your business easier to track, how and when money actually becomes taxable, and why waiting until April takes away your ability to make real financial decisions. She also dives into overlooked areas like cash tracking and mileage, and how small shifts in behavior can significantly change your financial clarity and outcomes. This episode is about learning how to see your business clearly—so you can make decisions earlier, reduce stress, and start building a business that actually supports your life long-term.
