I built this practice from a hospital room while caring for my disabled daughter. Today I help entrepreneurs keep more cash and invest in family + legacy. This class shows you how to look luxe and stay compliant.

By the end of this masterclass, you’ll know how to:

Apply “ordinary & necessary” to your niche so deductions stick.
Deduct luxury travel the smart way (first-class, black car, five-star stays)—and when the IRS will say no.
Make glam & wardrobe work (hair/makeup, stylist, “media closet,” designer props) with exclusive-use & documentation.
Host luxe client events (yacht, rooftops, retreats) with proper agendas, attendee records, and follow-up proof.
Build an audit-ready paper trail (receipts, itinerary, BTS photos, calendars, notes) so it’s “documented or didn’t happen.”
Spot red flags (and fix them): vague categories, lifestyle ratios, personal use leaks.
Link deductions to revenue so your write-offs tell a clear business story.

Who it’s not for: people seeking “personal lifestyle” write-offs with no business purpose or documentation.

Luxury Deduction Checklist (Green / Yellow / Red light): know what flies, what needs proof, and what to skip.
Travel & Hotel Allocation Cheatsheet: domestic vs. international day rules, “intent” notes, and sample justifications.
Glam & Wardrobe Policy Template: set exclusive-use rules; create a media closet system.
Content Shoot SOP + Shot List: tie glam/styling/props to income-producing content.
Event Agenda & Follow-Up Templates: run luxe client experiences the deductible way.
Documentation Pack: receipt + calendar note examples, BTS shot prompts, and expense-tagging tips.

Bonus: “Tax Prep vs. Tax Strategy” mini-lesson,

how to stack strategy all year, not once in April.

We translate Ordinary & Necessary into your real life (brand image, client experience, higher-end markets).

You’ll learn to tie every expense to income intent, then document it so it holds up.

FAQ

Is this legal?

Yes, when tied to a bona fide business purpose and properly documented. You’ll learn exactly how.

Will this trigger an audit?

Sloppy records do. This class shows how to prevent red flags and build an audit-ready file.

Can I deduct all my clothes?

No. You’ll learn exclusive-use rules and media-closet systems that pass scrutiny.

I’m not ultra-luxury.

It’s about your market. A Newport realtor ≠ a Compton realtor. We help you define “ordinary & necessary” for you.

I’m busy. Is this practical?

Yes, checklists, templates, SOPs. Implement in one afternoon.
