About this episode
For sole proprietors and self-employed professionals, taxes can feel confusing, time-consuming, and easy to get wrong. What counts as a deduction? How do you save money on your taxes? And how do you stay organized when you’re doing everything yourself? In this episode, CPA and tax expert with TurboTax, Lisa Greene-Lewis breaks down how solo business owners can make taxes simpler, smarter, and less stressful. We talk about common mistakes new business owners make, overlooked opportunities to save money, what they need to know for the upcoming season, and how the right tools and systems can help you stay focused on growing your business—not wrestling with paperwork.
With the business tax filing deadlines are approaching quickly, with many returns due March 16, 2026, understanding what has changed and acting on it with the right guidance may be one of the most practical decisions a solopreneur makes this year.
