Transcript:Ca: Al mercat medieval de Barcelona, l'aire era ple de vida i colors.En: At the medieval market in Barcelona, the air was full of life and colors.Ca: Les parades lluïen un ventall de productes, des de fruites fresques fins a teixits acolorits.En: The stalls displayed a range of products, from fresh fruits to colorful fabrics.Ca: Els venedors pregonaven les seves mercaderies, i el so del regateig ressonava als carrers empedrats.En: The vendors touted their goods, and the sound of bargaining echoed through the cobblestone streets.Ca: Era la vigília de Tots Sants i les aromes de castanyes torrades i encens omplien l'ambient.En: It was the eve of Tots Sants and the scents of roasted chestnuts and incense filled the atmosphere.Ca: Laia passejava pel mercat amb un propòsit clar.En: Laia strolled through the market with a clear purpose.Ca: Cercava llana rara, de qualitat, per fer capes d'hivern.En: She was searching for rare, high-quality wool to make winter cloaks.Ca: Les volia vendre al mateix mercat i destacar-se entre els molts comerciants que competien per l'atenció dels compradors.En: She wanted to sell them at the same market and stand out among the many merchants competing for the buyers' attention.Ca: Els seus cabells rossos brillaven sota el sol tardoral, i els seus ulls blaus observaven cada racó a la recerca de la parada que buscava.En: Her blonde hair shone under the autumn sun, and her blue eyes scanned each corner in search of the stall she was looking for.Ca: "Vaga pels carrers, però no oblidis el teu objectiu," es repetia Laia a si mateixa.En: "Walk the streets, but don't forget your goal," Laia repeated to herself.Ca: Sabia que les seves monedes eren poques i el temps escàs.En: She knew her coins were few and time was short.Ca: La multitud, atreta pels festeigs de Tots Sants, feia el camí difícil.En: The crowd, drawn by the Tots Sants festivities, made the path difficult.Ca: Afortunadament, la seva amiga Teresa l'acompanyava, ajudant-la a esquivar la gent.En: Fortunately, her friend Teresa accompanied her, helping her weave through the people.Ca: "Allà està, Laia, la parada del llanaire!En: "There it is, Laia, the wool vendor's stall!"Ca: " Teresa va exclamar, assenyalant un petit lloc ple de bobines de llana de tots colors.En: Teresa exclaimed, pointing to a small spot full of wool spools of all colors.Ca: Laia es va dirigir ràpidament cap allà quan de sobte va veure una figura coneguda, Arnau, un comerciant rival.En: Laia quickly headed there when she suddenly saw a familiar figure, Arnau, a rival merchant.Ca: Ell també fixava la mirada en la llana.En: He also fixed his gaze on the wool.Ca: Els seus ulls es van trobar, i una competició silenciosa es va establir entre ambdós.En: Their eyes met, and a silent competition was established between the two.Ca: La Laia es va apropar al llanaire, decidida.En: Laia approached the wool vendor, determined.Ca: "Bon dia.En: "Good day.Ca: He sentit que la teva llana és la millor.En: I've heard your wool is the best.Ca: Podria comprar-te algunes bobines?En: Could I buy some spools?Ca: Tinc un somni de crear capes úniques per aquest hivern.En: I have a dream of creating unique cloaks for this winter."Ca: "L'ancià llanaire la va mirar amb benevolència.En: The elderly wool vendor looked at her kindly.Ca: "Tens ulls plens de passió, jove.En: "You have eyes full of passion, young one.Ca: Però, el meu estoc és limitat avui, i aquest noi," va dir assenyalant l'Arnau, "també vol fer una oferta.En: But my stock is limited today, and this young man," he said, pointing to Arnau, "also wants to make an offer."Ca: "Arnau, amb un somriure segur, va oferir una suma més gran del que la Laia podia imaginar per les bobines.En: Arnau, with a confident smile, offered a sum larger than Laia could imagine for the spools.Ca: El cor de Laia va començar a bategar ràpidament.En: Laia's heart began to beat rapidly.Ca: Sabia que no podia competir amb la riquesa d'Arnau, però també sabia que no podia perdre aquella oportunitat.En: She knew she couldn't compete with Arnau's wealth, but she also knew she couldn't miss this opportunity.Ca: Amb valentia, Laia va mirar el llanaire.En: With courage, Laia looked at the wool vendor.Ca: "Vinc aquí perquè crec en la meva visió.En: "I come here because I believe in my vision.Ca: Vull construir el meu futur i ser una clienta lleial.En: I want to build my future and be a loyal customer.Ca: Segur que Arnau és un bon comprador, però jo.En: I'm sure Arnau is a good buyer, but I...Ca: Jo faré que aquesta llana siguis tu mateix als carrers de Barcelona, admirada per tothom.En: I will make this wool be you yourself on the streets of Barcelona, admired by everyone."Ca: "Alguna cosa en la sinceritat de Laia va tocar el llanaire.En: Something in Laia's sincerity touched the wool vendor.Ca: Ell va pensar per un moment i després li va somriure.En: He thought for a moment and then smiled at her.Ca: "Et crec, Laia.En: "I believe you, Laia.Ca: Tinc fe en els teus somnis.En: I have faith in your dreams."Ca: " Amb aquestes paraules, li va vendre la llana al preu que Laia podia pagar.En: With these words, he sold her the wool at a price that Laia could afford.Ca: Laia va agrair profundament i va sortir del mercat amb les bobines de la seva mà, més segura que mai.En: Laia thanked him deeply and left the market with the spools in her hand, more confident than ever.Ca: Sabia que havia fet un pas important cap al seu somni.En: She knew she had taken an important step towards her dream.Ca: Mentre caminava de tornada cap a casa amb Teresa, el sol brillava amb una llum càlida de tardor, omplint el seu cor d'esperança i decisió renovada.En: As she walked back home with Teresa, the sun shone with a warm autumn light, filling her heart with hope and renewed determination.

What do your income and your inner standards have in common? Everything. High-earning women don't just have great strategies — they have powerful standards that shape how they price, lead, and make money. In this episode of The Money Coach School, I'm sharing 6 inner standards that separate high-earning coaches from the ones who stay stuck. These aren't personality traits — they're choices. And the moment you raise your standard, your business shifts with it. If you've been overgiving, undercharging, or waiting for permission to lead at a higher level — this is your wake-up call. Because your next income level isn't earned through effort. It's claimed through standards. In this episode, I talk about: Why high-earning coaches don't tie their income to their identity — and what they lead with instead. How coaching becomes high-earning when you're trained to transform rather than winging it. The exact way brave coaches raise rates and make bold offers, even with a flutter in their chest. Why rebounding in hours (not weeks) keeps your income flowing and your confidence high. How boundaries show up in your pricing and why discounting to feel safe blocks Overflow. The difference between initiating from alignment versus urgency and how this shapes million-dollar decisions. Potent coaching questions to will help you lead, price with power, and shift your income now. ~~ For full show notes, transcript, and to check out the Courageous Coaching Certification, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/109

Before you spend a dime on ads or send anyone to your website, you need to get your brand right. In this episode, we're breaking down why branding is the foundation of every successful marketing strategy.

What if midlife wasn't a crisis but a calling? When entrepreneur Janet Lewis hit that inevitable midlife “what now” moment, she didn't retreat or play it safe. She reinvented herself. After decades in e-commerce and corporate consulting, she traded the hustle for human connection and built a thriving network that's redefining how women in business support each other. In this episode, Janet joins me to talk about what it really takes to pivot in midlife and build something meaningful. We dig into the messy middle between who you were and who you want to become and what it takes to make that leap without losing your mind, your money, or your confidence. Together we explore: • How to recognize when it's time for a change and what to do about it • The truth about midlife fear, reinvention, and finding purpose after forty • Why women need to stop discounting their worth and start charging like grown-ass professionals • How to build a network that is based on collaboration, not competition • The importance of boundaries, community, and showing up even when you don't feel ready Janet's story is proof that midlife isn't the end of opportunity. It's the sweet spot where wisdom, experience, and courage finally meet. Her pivot from running an online business to creating a thriving women's community shows that when you lead with purpose and connection, everything else follows. So if you've ever looked around your life and thought, “Is this it?” consider this your sign. Reinvention doesn't require starting over. It just asks that you finally start showing up as yourself.

Revenue looks great on paper, but you still feel broke. This disconnect between what the numbers show and what your bank account reflects is one of the most frustrating experiences for women entrepreneurs. You're working harder than ever, your sales are growing, yet somehow there's never enough left over to feel truly secure or to invest in the things that would actually move your business forward. We so rarely have frank conversations about where money actually flows in our businesses.

Listen in this week as Eleanor walks you through the margin stack framework: four critical cost allocations between revenue and profit that tell the complete story of your business health. You'll discover why growing revenue without proper profit architecture leads to resentment and burnout, and exactly which numbers reveal whether you're building wealth or just feeding an expensive machine.

What happens when strategic intelligence meets spiritual intuition? In this electric conversation, I sit down with keynote speaker and author, Karen Romine, to explore the intersection of artificial intelligence and the unseen realms. We talk about how AI is transforming the way we make decisions and scale our lives - and how inner knowing is the missing data point most women ignore. Karen shares her journey from corporate strategy expert to discovering that she is a psychic medium (yes, both can live in one woman!), and how merging logic with intuition creates exponential growth. This one's for the woman who knows she's meant to lead, but also trusts the whispers. The woman who wants to scale her vision without abandoning her soul. And the woman who's secretly felt there's more to 'data' than numbers. We're not choosing between the mystic or the machine. We're using both.

Your pricing isn't just a number. It's a declaration of your identity and your authority. Every time your chest tightens, your voice wavers, or your brain second-guesses your number mid-conversation, you're feeling the emotional wiring behind your rates. That nervous-system signal isn't a flaw - it's your power showing up, IF you know how to use it. In this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast, I'm diving into the emotional side of pricing, because as women entrepreneurs, our emotions don't just show up. They lead. And the moment you stop resisting them and start leading them into a fully resourced direction, your pricing becomes unshakable. Tune in to learn the four-step coaching process that will help you reset how you feel about your pricing—so you stop shrinking your number to feel safe, and start naming it with clarity, calm, and conviction. I'll break down the most common emotional traps women fall into, the beliefs that shift how your body feels when you quote your price, and the coaching questions that help you price from power, not compromise. In this episode, I talk about: Why pricing triggers deep emotional patterns around identity, belonging, and safety. How to name your current pricing emotion and consciously choose a new one that serves you. The four-step process to reset how your pricing feels in your body. Why emotional leadership is the next level of your pricing power. How women unconsciously collapse their pricing in subtle but costly ways. Key beliefs that anchor your rates in Overflow, not overthinking. ~~ For full show notes, transcript, and to grab Kendall's free pricing guide, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/108
