Why do we all get into this industry to make money, yet feel so uncomfortable actually managing it? Is your "dream career" turning into a self-sacrificing cycle because you're making emotional financial decisions instead of logical ones?

We're breaking down the brutal reality of revenue versus income, why a massive tax refund is actually a sign of mismanagement, and the non-negotiable bank account setup every independent stylist needs to survive.
