In this episode, we sit down with Greg Taylor, a faith-driven tax strategist and founder of Taylor Tax Strategy, to unpack what it really means to steward money with wisdom, not just hustle. We break down the difference between a tax preparer and a strategist, and why real estate investors, business owners, and Kingdom-minded leaders need more than someone to file forms—they need someone who helps them make proactive, principled moves.

But this episode goes far deeper than deductions and depreciation. We talk about defining your number, aligning your business with your personal values, giving with intentionality, raising financially aware kids, and seeking God’s direction in every major decision. From short-term rental loopholes to the Augusta Rule, Greg shares practical strategies you can implement this year—without losing sight of what matters most.

📌 Key Topics:
 ✅ The real difference between a tax strategist and a CPA
 ✅ Cost segregation and how to front-load tax benefits
 ✅ Why defining your “enough” number leads to real freedom
 ✅ Tithing and generosity from a faith-filled, practical lens
 ✅ Strategic tax planning (yes, even in December)
 ✅ Raising kids who steward wealth without idolizing it
 ✅ The power of saying no to bigger deals that don’t align
 ✅ Real estate professional status vs. passive investing
 ✅ How to pay your kids (and keep more money legally)
 ✅ Why action often follows prayer—and not the other way around

If you're serious about building wealth, giving boldly, and living with clarity, this one’s for you.

Start acting like a strategist—your future self (and community) will thank you.
