In this episode of The Girl Dad Show, host Young Han sits down with Miguel Alexander Centeno, founder and managing partner of Tax Hack (now Centurion Firm), veteran tax strategist, and father of three, for a powerful conversation about entrepreneurship, Parenting, and building a meaningful life.
Miguel shares his journey from Big 4 tax manager at PwC to leading one of the fastest-growing private firms in America, recently named to the INC.5000 list. Along the way, he has testified before the U.S. House of Representatives, been quoted by The Wall Street Journal, MSNBC, and Fox Business, and built a respected brand in the tax advisory space. But behind the credentials is a father navigating the complexities of raising children at different stages while running a high-performance business.
Miguel opens up about becoming a young dad, how his immigrant background shaped his work ethic and values, and the lessons he wants to pass on to his kids. He and Young discuss balancing independence and support in parenting, teaching resilience, slowing down to cherish time with Family, and why parents must prioritize their own well-being to model success properly.
This episode dives into branding, specialization, Legacy, and what it really means to define success beyond survival.
