Episode 105 - Taxes with Heart: How Collaboration Creates Clarity and Confidence with CPA Jamie Howell Quinn

On this episode of the Money Pig podcast, host Tim Goodwin sits down with CPA and firm owner, Jamie Howell Quinn, to unpack why collaboration between your financial advisor and your tax professional can make or break your financial plan. Jamie shares real-life stories of clients who were blindsided by big tax bills because their advisor never explained the tax impact of trades—especially large capital gains that were immediately reinvested. Together, Tim and Jamie walk through how proactive communication, tax planning, and simple organization can reduce stress, avoid penalties, and create a smoother experience at tax time.

They also explore how strategies like capital gain planning, carryover losses, RMDs, Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs), and donor-advised funds can help you be both wise and generous with your money. The conversation ends on a deeply human note as Jamie talks about learning to give herself grace—and Tim challenges listeners to be generous not just with time and money, but also with encouragement, forgiveness, and grace toward themselves.
