Podcasts about undercharging

There's a version of exhaustion nobody names directly. It's not burnout from doing too much. It's not a time management problem or a discipline gap. It's the quiet, relentless effort of trying to prove you deserve to be here - in the room, in the conversation, in your own life. This episode goes underneath the ambition. Underneath the full calendar and the next launch and the productivity system that still doesn't feel like enough. Because for a lot of high achievers, the real thing running in the background isn't strategy. It's the belief: I'm not enough. And it doesn't show up the way you'd expect. It looks like perfectionism. Over-preparation. People-pleasing. Undercharging. Hiding until you feel more ready. Needing one more credential before you claim what you already know. In this first episode of the Identity Stability Series, Lisa McGuire names what's actually happening beneath those patterns, and why achievement can quiet the ache but never actually answer the question beneath it. We talk about why your work was never meant to carry your worth. Why Category of ONLY™ can't emerge from proving. And why the next version of your identity cannot be built on the same unworthiness that exhausted the last one. This is where the embodiment arc begins. Not with a framework. With a truth. The question isn't how to become enough. It's what you've been using to avoid realizing you already are.   CONNECT WITH LISA LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisa-mcguire/  WEBSITE: https://lisamcguire.com Successfully Stuck: The First Step Truth Kit: https://go.lisamcguire.com/first-truth-kit  Category of ONLY Inquiry: https://calendly.com/lisabusinessgrowthadvisor/get-acquainted  Identity Evolution Journey Series Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL2KBSb0BlQp9HhTEd1Z_SNdULBD7wey84  Sign up for Lisa's "so much more" newsletter: https://www.thediyframework.com/so-much-more-subscribe  Get your free Human Design Bodygraph: https://lisamcguire.com/get-your-free-chart/  Human Design Masterclass Waitlist: https://go.lisamcguire.com/human-design-masterclass-waitlist  Ideal Client Workshop Waitlist: https://go.lisamcguire.com/ideal-client-workshop-waitlist-icww785155   

Real quick, I have a 3-day masterclass starting June 9-11th and it covers everything I share about in this episode. Registration is free. We start at 11 am CST each day. Sign up here: https://go.shaminataylor.com/breaking-the-upper-limit-june-2026  Okay I have to be real with you in this one because this episode is for every woman who is making money but still feels like her business owns her. Who is working too hard, charging too little, and wondering why the cash never quite matches the effort she is putting out. I am breaking down the exact five step framework I take every single client through when they come into my world. And I promise you it is not just about strategy. It is about pricing, premium clients, scalable offers, identity work, and learning how to actually enjoy the wealth you are building. All five of those things working together is what creates the kind of success that does not slide back. I also share what happened with my client Alexis. She was already making money when she came to work with me one-on-one. Successful business, proven offers, but completely stuck in hustle mode with a new baby on the way and no breathing room in sight. We spent one VIP day together restructuring a single offer. A $3,000 offer that required almost none of her time to deliver. She sold 35 people into it immediately, collected $75,000 upfront, then offered a bonus to her existing $25,000 clients and collected another $125,000. $225,000 in cash from one restructured offer. And she still had time to be a present mama. This is what happens when you stop building offers around what you think you have to give and start building them around what your clients actually need to win. I also get into why undercharging is one of the most destructive things you can do in your business. It is not just leaving money on the table. It is attracting the wrong clients, creating resentment, and keeping you locked in a workload that will never scale. And I talk about why enjoying your wealth is not optional. It is actually step five of the framework and it is the thing most women skip entirely. In this episode you will discover: The 5-step framework I use with every client to increase pricing, attract premium clients, build scalable offers, do the identity work, and finally enjoy the wealth How Alexis restructured one offer, collected $225,000 cash upfront and got her time back before her second baby arrived Why undercharging is attracting the wrong clients and creating resentment without you even realising it How to build a low ticket, mid ticket, and high ticket ascension system that creates passive income and scales without requiring more of your time Why enjoying your money is not a luxury, it is a direct strategy for attracting more of it How my client Sarah, made $120,000 in a single month with a $27 offer and still earns from it every single hour Why your business model is probably the real reason you are hitting a ceiling and what to do about it Why charging more is actually the most generous thing you can do for your clients and your business If you have been doing all the things and still feel like your business owns you more than you own it, this episode is going to show you exactly where the gap is. And how to close it without adding a single thing to your plate. Join our FREE Quantum Woman Community https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1EsvvfUBjg/ 

Money coach Jen Fontanilla spent 25 years designing for Disney before cracking the code on creative worth. Here's why you're undercharging — and how to stop. She spent 25 years creating packaging for Disney, Sony, and Target. She was good at her job — great, actually. But here's what nobody knew: she had no idea how to handle her own money. None. And she is not alone — because if you are a creative, a designer, a writer, a maker of any kind, the system was literally built to keep you broke and grateful for it. Today's guest is Jen Fontanilla — TEDx speaker, seven-time author, and the woman who turned her own financial rock bottom into a career dismantling the 'Starving Artist' myth one belief at a time. We are going to get into why you keep undercharging, why your childhood shaped your rates, and the one mindset shift that changes everything.

Book a connection call: https://jenniferdawncoaching.com/schedule-call/ Why does setting the goal, working harder, and pushing through still leave you hitting the same invisible ceiling? In this episode of the Happy Productive Podcast, Jennifer Dawn goes beneath the surface to the real reason your results stall: identity. Not your personality or your role, but the internal place you lead from and who you become automatically under pressure. Jennifer unpacks how early safety rules form in the nervous system, why they live in the body rather than the mind, and why no strategy can override them. She shares openly from her own story, including years of overworking driven by a safety rule that equated rest with danger, and shows how undercharging and an inability to let go of control all trace back to the same place. This is the second episode in a series going deeper into what actually shifts when growth finally lasts.If you feel that ceiling and want to shift it, awareness is where it begins.

In this episode, we're talking about one tiny word that could be quietly costing you thousands in your design business: “just.” If you've ever said, “It's just a small bathroom,” “It's just a few finishes,” or “It's just a consultation,” you may be unintentionally minimizing the expertise, decision-making, and professional value you bring to your projects. I'll unpack why designers use this word, how it affects your pricing, and why work that feels easy to you is often the exact thing your clients need most. Plus, you'll learn how to catch yourself before you undercharge and start describing your work in a way that reflects the true value of your experience.Ready to stop waiting for better opportunities and start creating access to them?Join me for my FREE live workshop, The V.I.P. Path to Your Highest Design Fee, where I'll show you the three shifts that help designers get seen, invited, and paid for bigger design projects.Wednesday 6/24, 12pm Eastern.

If your service business has hit a revenue ceiling, the problem probably isn't your offer, it's your pricing. In this episode, pricing strategist and author Linda Hunt introduces the concept of the "minimum aligned price," the pricing floor below which you're actually paying your clients to work for them. Linda covers the three points at which service businesses start to show weakness: the pricing conversation, scope creep inside the work, and a lack of repeatable processes. If you've been bootstrapping your way through growth, this is the formula for building the business that scales with you.In this episode of The She Leads Podcast, Adrienne Garland's guest is Linda Hunt, founder of Sum Solutions, author of The Money Conversation, and the financial architect known to the women she works with as the money clarity catalyst.Linda makes the case that "I cannot afford it" is almost never the real objection. Clients always find the money for what they value, but a discount in that moment teaches them they were right to hesitate. She also walks through the cost of scope creep on a high-touch client and why a defined service process is what lets the work actually scale.Linda introduces her free Perfect Pricing Formula and the principle that changes how women build service businesses: price your services from day one as if someone else were going to be doing the work, not you.Chapters:

You're undercharging. You know it. Your client knows it. But you comfort yourself by saying, "Well, at least she's coming to me instead of the salon/spa down the street." Meanwhile, your bills are piling up, the rent just went up and don't even mention the cost of eggs and milk!

See what the team at The Successful Bookkeeper has on right now → Anne Napolitano started her firm a decade ago as a solopreneur with an accounting degree, a background as a controller for Hermès of Paris, and a stint as a personal chef. Today she runs a 10-person firm with a specialty niche in food and beverage — and she has learned, often the hard way, how to charge what her work is actually worth. This episode is a practical, honest conversation about building advisory services into a bookkeeping firm, pricing with confidence, and communicating value so clients never have to wonder what you do for them. Chapters [00:00] Anne's Background and Firm Journey [05:03] Early Mistakes and Hard Lessons [09:07] Building Advisory Into the Practice [12:24] Tools, Confidence, and Clean Data [14:33] Selling Advisory to Skeptical Clients [18:20] Segmenting Clients for Higher-Tier Work [20:42] Packaging and Proposals That Work [23:34] Pricing Courage and Recovering from Undercharging [28:19] Communicating Value Before Clients Leave [30:29] Pivotal Moments and What She'd Do Differently From Bookkeeping to Advisory: It Takes Time to Grow Into It Anne didn't launch as a full advisory firm on day one — the advisory side evolved as her confidence and team grew. She credits closing the books fast (her target is the 10th–15th of each month) as the foundation that makes advisory possible. "The faster we can get the bookkeeping done, that allows us 2 weeks at the end of the month to meet with clients and to do the advisory type of work that we really enjoy." Without clean, timely data, there's nothing to advise on. Selling Advisory When Clients Don't Know They Need It Many clients assume advisory is bundled into their basic bookkeeping fee. Anne's approach is to start with bookkeeping, build trust, and then show — not tell — what advisory can do. She uses dashboards, charts, and graphs in prospect calls, sometimes pulling analysis directly from a prospect's QuickBooks file before they've even signed. "We have found that that has been a game changer." Visual tools lower the barrier for clients who tune out a P&L but respond immediately to a trend line. Segmenting Clients for Higher-Tier Services Not every client is ready for advisory, and Anne stopped pretending otherwise. She segments roughly the top 15–30% of her client base into higher-tier engagements based on revenue size, reporting complexity, or multi-entity structures — not just headcount. Clients who don't start there often grow into it. "Some of the other clients move themselves into advisory over time. Either they grow or become more complex, or we've shown them what we can do for them — and by then we have a relationship, so they trust us." The Pricing Trap: Being a Recovering Underpricer Anne is direct about the pricing mistakes she's still working through. She uses value pricing (no hourly billing), offers three-tier proposal packages, and spells out scope precisely to avoid scope creep and client assumptions. But the real obstacle is internal. "I'm a recovering underpricer. You need to be willing and able for them to walk away. Because if they're not going to pay your price, it's not a good client for you." She also anchors pricing against the cost of a full-time hire — converting monthly fees to an annual figure so clients can compare apples to apples. Communicating Value Before Clients Drift Away Losing clients not because of bad work, but because clients didn't understand what was being done for them, was one of Anne's hardest lessons. Her fix: overcommunicate. Her team now sends monthly summaries through their client portal covering what was done, errors caught, fraud signals flagged, and money saved. "We don't always communicate to a client, and we found that that was a big mistake." She describes it as an iceberg — clients see the surface, but the firm's job is to make the work below the waterline visible. --- Links Mentioned Anne Napolitano on LinkedIn Anne Napolitano on Instagram: search Anne Napolitano The Balance Sheet — Anne's monthly newsletter (contact her via social media to subscribe) The Successful Bookkeeper Summit — this year's theme: Owning Your Authority PureBookkeeping.com — episode sponsor Woodard conferences and education (mentioned as a resource for advisory skill-building) --- About the Guest Anne Napolitano is the founder of Anne Napolitano Consulting, a modern accounting and advisory firm she has grown over 10 years from a solo practice to a 10-person team.

Tired of the “fight to the death” model of family law? In this episode, you'll hear how a modern family law founder rebuilt the divorce practice playbook with intentional branding, low-conflict strategy, and a subscription model that puts families—and profitability—first.   In this episode, Steve Fretzin and I'Asia Scarlett-Jones discuss: Origin story and career path into family law Mindset: opportunity in difficulty and intentional practice Niche branding and attracting the right family law clients Subscription model vs. hourly billing in divorce matters Delegation, systems, pricing, and common law firm mistakes   Key Takeaways: Viewing setbacks as lessons rather than losses creates resilience in both law practice and leadership. Treating a law firm like a true business—brand, systems, pricing, and niche—separates commodity lawyers from sought-after advisors. A low-conflict, highly strategic approach to family law can protect families from the financial and emotional cost of endless litigation. Subscription-based pricing, when designed thoughtfully, can improve client affordability, predictability, and trust while still being profitable. Undercharging, under-delegating, and delaying systems are expensive mistakes; investing early in support, structure, and proper pricing pays off.   "You have to charge what you're worth. Do not be afraid. Charge it. They will pay it." —  I'Asia Scarlett-Jones   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

FREE Two Day Event: The Farm Marketing Fix - June 2026 Sign Up HERE This morning, another email landed in my inbox. "We're quitting." Another farm family packing it in. They never got to the place where they could charge enough to make the farm sustainable. And I've watched this happen farm after farm after farm for 20+ years. Here's what I've finally had to admit after all of it: it's not the weather. It's not the margins. It's not even the economy. It's a set of beliefs so deeply wired into farming culture that most farmers don't even know they're running on them. They feel like truth. They feel like virtue. They're actually the thing quietly killing your farm. Struggle is not a virtue. Exhaustion is not proof of dedication. And charging premium prices is not greedy - it's the only way your farm survives long enough to actually serve your community. Until you see the lies for what they are, no strategy, no system, no marketing tactic is going to work the way it should. Your beliefs will override them every time. This episode is Part 2 of my From Burnout to Balance series, and it's the conversation I wish every farmer could have before year five. Before the quitting email, before the burnout, before they sell off the herd. I'm breaking down the four Good Farmer Lies, the brain science of why your biology defaults to scarcity, and how to start shifting it this week. I include how to spot the exact scarcity thoughts showing up in your pricing, why "real farmers don't need marketing" is the belief costing you the most customers, the reframe that turns profit into a form of service instead of greed, and three specific exercises you can do right now: a default thought audit, an abundance reframe, and a price audit. If you're tired. If you're undercharging. If some quiet voice tells you that wanting profit somehow makes you less noble, this one's for you. You'll walk away knowing what's actually keeping you stuck, and with real tools to start rewiring it today. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Price for Profit (Free Pricing Course) — If you've been wondering whether your prices are actually sustainable, this free course is where you start.

Keep your eyes peeled... more details coming soon. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: Struggle Is Not A Virtue — It's Just Struggle. Dedication and martyrdom are not the same thing, but farming culture has conflated them for generations. The belief that good farmers are supposed to suffer financially is the exact belief keeping your prices too low, your hours too long, and your farm on the path to closing in year five like 98% of farms do. Sustainable farmers thrive and thriving is the goal, not the exception. Your Premium Price Is Responsible, Not Greedy. When you charge what your work is actually worth, you can care for your animals properly, produce safe food, stay present with your family, invest back into your land, and still be in business in five years. Undercharging isn't humble. It's a form of scarcity thinking dressed up as virtue, and it's the number one reason the farms I used to buy from don't exist anymore. You Cannot Out-Strategy A Scarcity Mindset. You can learn every marketing tactic and pricing formula out there, but if your brain is still running on "nobody will pay that" and "real farmers don't market," those beliefs will override every strategy you implement. Mindset work isn't fluff - it's the foundation everything else is built on. Shift the thinking first, and the profit follows. Click HERE and Let's Meet! Chat with us to see if The Profitable Farmer can break you out of marketing misery.

What if the real reason you feel burnt out in your business has nothing to do with your workload… and everything to do with what you're charging? In this episode, I'm diving into a topic that quietly affects so many wedding professionals and creative entrepreneurs: undercharging. I walk through the subtle signs that your pricing may be out of alignment—things like resentment toward clients, constant exhaustion, and that uncomfortable guilt when it's time to send an invoice. If you've ever found yourself discounting before someone even asks or wondering if your work is “worth it,” this conversation will hit close to home.Topics covered in this episode include:The surprising place undercharging shows up first—and it's not your bank accountWhy resentment toward clients can actually be a pricing problemThe hidden ways people-pleasing sabotages your incomeResources Mentioned:Get your free business audit: https://jentaylorconsulting.com/free-business-audit/ I would love to connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/JenTaylorConsulting/ & Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jentaylorconsulting/!Show notes available at: https://jentaylorconsulting.com/design-your-wedding-business-podcast/

"I know I could charge more, but I don't know how to ask for it."I hear this constantly in business audits. From experienced VAs and OBMs who get results, whose clients renew and refer. They're the backbone of their client's businesses, but they're still not charging what they should be.The problem isn't confidence or money mindset. The real issue? Their work has spoken for itself. They've grown through referrals without ever having to articulate the impact they make. So they've skipped developing the language.And you cannot charge for what you cannot articulate. If you can't say it, you can't sell it. So you default to proving it by doing, staying late, overdelivering, trying to justify higher rates while staying at the lower one.In this episode, I'm breaking down the 3 questions that will give you the language that matches the depth of what you create.⚡️ Effortless Attraction (8-week marketing intensive) is open until April 17th: Join us inside!Send us Fan MailJoin Effortless Attraction: 8-Week Live Marketing Intensive for VAs, OBMs & DFY Service Providers ⬇️https://embodied-soulpreneur.newzenler.com/courses/effortless-attraction-spring-2026For VAs & OBMs turning expertise into a signature method and a business that pays for outcomes, not hours.BOOK A FREE BUSINESS AUDITFree 45-min call.

If you've ever caught yourself apologising after quoting a price or felt that quiet discomfort when someone asks what you charge, this episode is for you.

Today is March 31st, the last day of the first quarter. And I want to do something a little different. I want to walk you through a quick audit. Maybe five minutes. Back of the napkin. No fancy spreadsheet. You can use a Post-it if you want. This will tell you more about your business than your QuickBooks has all year. Because we're going to look at the gap between what you earned this quarter and what you were actually worth. And then we're going to talk about what that gap is really costing you — because it's not just money. If you've ever finished a quarter feeling like you worked constantly, but the revenue doesn't match up with your effort, this episode is for you. This is no judgment. Just clarity.

Send us Fan MailUndercharging can look like generosity, but it often becomes a slow leak that drains your confidence, your business, and even your client results. We get real about the internal stories that push well-intentioned coaches to discount their coaching services, then wonder why they feel stuck, frustrated, or secretly resentful. If you've ever thought, “Who am I to charge that?” this conversation gives you language for what's happening and a path forward that doesn't rely on hype or gimmicks.We break down the belief loop behind pricing fear: the thought that hits automatically, the feelings it creates, and the actions that follow, like lowering rates, avoiding sales conversations, or not even telling people you coach. Then we zoom out to the uncomfortable truth most people miss: when clients don't have skin in the game, they often take less action. That lack of commitment can lead to weaker outcomes, which feeds more doubt and sends coaches searching for tactics like new offers, better messaging, or AI shortcuts instead of addressing the root belief system.We also talk practical strategy for new coaches, including a structured six-week “free” container designed to build reps, create testimonials, and transition into paid work without making free sessions your default. Finally, we separate worth from value: your worth is inherent, while the market pays for the value you can deliver through skill, transformation, and a clear roadmap.

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, host Hunter Donia shares a behind-the-scenes look at a real challenge many experienced stylists face: realizing that some of your longest-standing clients are still paying far less than your current pricing. When you have built deep relationships over years behind the chair, raising those prices can feel incredibly uncomfortable, even when you know it is the right business decision.Hunter walks through how emotional pricing often sneaks into our businesses over time. Whether it happened because you inherited clients, honored old rates, or simply struggled to change pricing as your career grew, many stylists end up with uneven pricing across their client list. This episode explores why fixing those situations is not just about making more money, but about creating fairness for both yourself and the clients who are already paying your full rate.Through a candid coaching conversation with a stylist who has been behind the chair for nearly two decades, Hunter breaks down the mindset shifts and practical steps that make these difficult conversations easier. You will hear how to approach long-time clients with honesty, how to transition them to your current rates, and how to release the guilt that often keeps stylists stuck in outdated pricing.Key Takeaways:

If you're a spiritual entrepreneur with a big heart who wants to help people but often finds yourself overwhelmed, overworking, or on the edge of burnout, this episode will feel incredibly familiar. Many wellness entrepreneurs start their businesses with a deep calling to serve. But without strong boundaries, sustainable systems, and nervous system regulation, that passion can quickly turn into exhaustion. In this episode, I'm joined by Harmony Slater, a certified mastery coach, breathwork trainer, and one of only twenty women worldwide to hold the highest-level Ashtanga Yoga certification. Harmony has spent over 25 years guiding students across 33 countries through yoga, meditation, energy work, and somatic healing. We talk about why so many spiritual entrepreneurs struggle with burnout, how nervous system dysregulation impacts business decisions, and the simple practices that can help you regulate your energy and grow your business in a way that actually supports your life. If you've ever felt like you're constantly hustling, second-guessing yourself, or stuck in cycles of overwhelm and exhaustion, this episode will give you a new perspective on what sustainable business growth really looks like.   In This Episode, We Discuss Why spiritual entrepreneurs often burn out faster than they expect The hidden patterns of undercharging, overgiving, and people-pleasing How nervous system dysregulation affects creativity and productivity The role of trauma and deeper emotional work in entrepreneurship Simple breathwork and embodiment practices to regulate stress How to create boundaries while growing a heart-centered business Why rest and recovery are essential for sustainable success   Resources Are you a health coach in need of done-for-you content?

But that heart-centered intention can sometimes lead to patterns that make burnout more likely. Many healers, coaches, and wellness professionals struggle with pricing their services, valuing their time, and setting boundaries. Harmony explains that burnout often happens when entrepreneurs build a business where they end up working for the business instead of having the business support their life. Harmony: "You're building a company or business for yourself, but then you are working for your business rather than having your business work for you."   The Pattern of Undercharging and Overgiving Many spiritual entrepreneurs have been conditioned to believe their soft skills or healing work are not truly monetizable. As a result, they may undercharge, overdeliver, and try to do everything themselves without support. Harmony describes how these patterns often stem from scarcity beliefs and difficulty valuing their own time and expertise. Harmony: "They're undercharging, overgiving, not really valuing their time, not having great boundaries around their time."   When Misalignment Shows Up in Your Nervous System Misalignment doesn't always appear as obvious burnout at first. Instead, it often shows up through nervous system dysregulation. This can look like: Procrastination Overworking Constant overwhelm Fear of visibility Creative blocks Second-guessing decisions Harmony explains that when entrepreneurs stay in these fight-or-flight states too long, burnout becomes inevitable. Harmony: "Nervous system dysregulation often shows up… operating in fight or flight, freeze, or fawn."   The Importance of Doing Your Own Inner Work One of the deeper themes in this episode is that burnout often reveals unresolved inner patterns. Many coaches and healers help others process trauma or emotional blocks, but avoid doing the deeper work themselves. Harmony explains that spiritual growth isn't only about love and light — it also requires shadow work and addressing deeper emotional patterns. Harmony: "We want to be the teacher or the healer, but doing our own deeper work is often the uncomfortable part."   Simple Ways to Regulate Your Nervous System When you feel overwhelmed or frozen, the key is learning how to bring your body back into a regulated state. Harmony shares several simple techniques that can help regulate your nervous system in the moment: Slow breathing Lengthening the exhale Humming or singing Gentle movement Pausing to feel emotions in the body These practices bring awareness back to the body and help calm the nervous system. Harmony: "Breath is one of the number one keys for regulating your nervous system and bringing you into the present moment."   Creating Boundaries as a Spiritual Entrepreneur Boundaries are essential for building a sustainable business. Harmony emphasizes that one of the most important steps is identifying your priorities and scheduling time for yourself before filling your calendar with obligations. Many entrepreneurs prioritize clients, business tasks, and responsibilities while neglecting their own well-being. Harmony: "Schedule yourself first." Rest Is Not Laziness — It's Productive Another important reminder in this episode is that rest is a crucial part of productivity. Sometimes the most effective solution during overwhelm is simply to pause, step away from work, and allow the body to reset. Harmony shares that even a short break or a 20-minute rest can help restore clarity and energy. Harmony: "Resting is productive."   Finding Your Own Path as an Entrepreneur One of the most empowering messages from this conversation is that there is no single "correct" routine for success. Many entrepreneurs try to copy the habits, routines, and productivity systems of others, even when those approaches don't actually support their lifestyle or energy. Harmony encourages entrepreneurs to experiment and find what truly works for them. Harmony: "Find your own path and what really works for you." Growing your business does not require constant hustle, exhaustion, or sacrificing your well-being. By learning to regulate your nervous system, creating supportive boundaries, and building a business aligned with your values, you can scale in a way that feels sustainable and fulfilling.

If you quietly put your prices up tomorrow, what would actually happen? Would clients disappear? Would bookings slow down? Or is that just the story your brain tells you when money comes up? With all the renovating happening here, and me weighing up whether a second bathroom is a smart long-term move, I've been thinking about return on investment. Business isn't that different. We compare. We hesitate. We look sideways at what everyone else is charging. But we don't always stop and work out what makes sense for us.In this episode, I'm unpacking what's really sitting underneath pricing discomfort, and why the feast and famine cycle often comes down to structure, not demand. If money feels a bit wobbly in your practice right now, have a listen. And if you'd like to go further, I'm running a live webinar on March 16 at 1:30pm ACST where we'll walk through the practical side of pricing and appointments.

“Every artist has a story where they didn't charge enough, the question is whether you let it break you or build you.” - BrandiWho knew we were practically neighbours? In this episode, I sit down with Canadian artist Joshua Harnack (Some of you might know him as the guy who got a storage locker with 6000 paintings in it) from Edmonton, and we get real about what it actually looks like to start an art career.We talk about the scrappy early days — Craigslist jobs, frat houses, popcorn ceilings, and charging $300 for a mural that probably should've cost ten times that. Josh shares how his very first mural in Vancouver (yes… in a University of British Columbia frat house) ended up costing him nearly all the profit in supplies and mistakes — but also opened the door to his next, better-paying commission.We dive into managing commissions wisely (hello boundaries), using inquiry forms instead of chasing every opportunity, and embracing the “feast and famine” rhythm that so many creatives quietly navigate. I also share how I've been bringing art into the hockey rink, because in Alberta, if you can't beat the hockey culture… you pack your art bag and join it.This one is about resilience, humility, learning the hard way, and trusting that even the messy jobs are building something bigger.Two Takeaway Tips1. Build a commission system that protects your creativity.Use inquiry forms. Only take projects when your schedule allows. Not every opportunity deserves a “yes.” Sustainable creativity requires structure.2. Your early mistakes are tuition — not failure.Undercharging, wrong materials, awkward jobs — they're part of the path. The key is to learn fast, adjust, and keep going.

What happens when you know your value—but say a lower number anyway? In this episode of My Favorite Mistake, Mark Graban is joined by Amy Rasdal, founder of Billable at the Beach and author of Land a Consulting Project Now. Amy shares her favorite mistake from the early days of consulting: undercharging for her work because of fear, even when she knew she was worth more. Amy explains how that moment became a “gateway mistake,” leading her to better understand pricing, confidence, and the hidden beliefs that hold many accomplished professionals back. The conversation explores why undercharging is so common, how fear shows up in pricing conversations, and why selling out your time at a discount can quietly limit long-term success. This episode is especially relevant for consultants, freelancers, and professionals considering a move from corporate life into independent work.

Why is it important for attorneys to know if they are undercharging for their services? Attorneys need to be aware of whether they are undercharging to ensure they are not undervaluing their expertise and losing potential business. It is crucial for them to understand their pricing strategy to maintain profitability and attract the right clients. Being aware of the signs that suggest their hourly rate may be too low can help attorneys make informed decisions about their pricing structure. What is the significance of a high conversion rate in consultations to actual clients? A high conversion rate, such as more than 80%, can indicate that an attorney’s hourly rate might be too low. While converting consultations into clients is generally positive, an excessively high conversion rate could signal that the attorney’s prices are significantly lower than their competitors, leading to clients choosing them solely based on price rather than quality of service. How can being buried with work indicate that an attorney’s hourly rate is too low? Being overwhelmed with work may appear positive on the surface, but it could also suggest that an attorney’s hourly rate is too low. If clients continually return for services at the same rate, it might indicate that the attorney is not charging adequately for their expertise. This scenario could point to the need for a rate increase to reflect the value of the services provided. Why are referrals from colleagues to clients who can’t afford an attorney’s rates a sign of undercharging? Referrals from colleagues to clients who cannot afford an attorney’s rates may be a result of the attorney’s reputation for offering low-rate services. This reputation can lead to a cycle of receiving clients who are unable to pay the attorney’s fees, indicating that the attorney may need to reevaluate their pricing strategy. Elevating their reputation and adjusting their rates can help attract clients who value their services appropriately.

How does a fee-only firm grow without losing its purpose? In this episode, we talk with Sean Gillespie, president of Redeployment Wealth Strategies, about the lessons behind raising fees, building the right team, and serving military families with care and consistency.Sean explains why their first-year planning fee reflects the real work of sorting through insurance, TSP choices, and transition planning, and how they keep ongoing service affordable for younger service members.One story sums it up well: a client calls mid-PCS, asking if they can buy a beach house near family. Within a minute, Sean knows the answer and the funding source. That's the value of clear planning—fast decisions, managed risks, and confidence in the next step.We also discuss why “hire us for returns” is a losing pitch, how RWS uses a passive, factor-based approach, and what it takes to hire and train through SkillBridge.
