Hannah Cole and Nerissa Street of Ten Thousand Women Ten Thousand Stages podcast

What do creative people need to know about the differences in tax laws between gig workers and employees? How much should you be saving in self-employment tax? How has the landscape changed in the current economy?

Hannah had two messages growing up: "Do what makes you happy!" and "Art won't make any money." How did that and her other experiences as an artist help her translate design needs into practical commercial benefit? They also talk about the stimulus bills and payments, deductions, and what you can look forward to in July if you have children.

Who benefits from the latest tax legislation? What has changed with business meal deductions this year?
