In this episode of Energy Is Currency, host Alexis Williams welcomes artist, educator, and founder of Sunlight Tax, Hannah Cole, for a deeply human conversation about creativity, money, and building systems that actually support real people.

Hannah shares her unconventional path—from professional painter to tax educator—and why she built a tax company specifically for creatives, entrepreneurs, and “weirdos” who never felt seen by traditional business culture. Together, they unpack the false narrative that creative people aren’t good with money, and explore how structure can protect—not stifle—artistry.

The conversation moves through entrepreneurship as self-development, money as a neutral tool rather than an identity, releasing shame around earning, and why presence matters more than balance. Hannah also offers practical, calming tax wisdom for 2026, including simple systems for separating accounts, organizing receipts, and reducing overwhelm before tax season even begins.

This episode is an invitation to rethink money, honor your nervous system, and build a business that works with who you are—not against it.

In this episode of Energy Is Currency, host Alexis Williams sits down with entrepreneur, brand strategist, and leadership mentor Luna Batalia for a grounded conversation about alignment, evolution, and what it truly means to mind your business—personally and professionally.

They explore hustle culture versus nervous system regulation, why energy and attention are real currency, and how entrepreneurs can relate to their businesses as living relationships rather than problems to fix. The discussion also touches on pivoting with intention, honoring seasons of rest and growth, identity shifts, and allowing both life and business to evolve without force.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen deeper, and build from alignment instead of urgency.
