From Tax Returns to Sold-Out Retreats: How Barb Built a Magnetic Brand and Business

In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Barb, a former accountant turned powerhouse tax strategist and retreat host, who shares how she transformed her career—and brand—through authenticity, strategy, and showing up in the right rooms. From gaining her first clients through social media and word-of-mouth in the MLM space to hosting sold-out retreats in places like NYC, Barb unpacks the marketing moves that made it all happen. We also dive into fun (and unexpected) tax write-offs, how real estate agents can expand their income streams, and why retreats aren’t just a tax deduction—but a smart business move. Whether you're an entrepreneur, agent, or coach, this episode is packed with golden takeaways you won’t want to miss.
