💼 Side hustlers, this one’s for you 👀

If you’ve made over £1,000 from freelancing, selling online, or coaching, you have to declare it to HMRC. And with tax season around the corner, it’s better to get ahead than get fined.

That’s where Stella, our Accounting & Tax Advisor, comes in. She helps business owners and freelancers file correctly, stay compliant, and avoid those costly surprises. ✨

📉 Black people are one of the most educated groups in the UK but still earn less than our peers.

Why?

Because it’s not just about degrees.
It’s about access.
It’s about information.
It’s about the silence around money that’s holding so many of us back.

In this clip from The Vanessa Podcast, Stella @_accountstar shares why we need to normalise talking about what we’re earning, what’s available, and how we can support each other out loud.

💬 Share the job.
