Hey there, lovely listeners! In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges of being a woman in business. We discuss how the cognitive load impacts us differently compared to men and why it's not just about being busy, but avoiding burnout. I share striking statistics on women's mental loads at home, caregiving, and the business world, highlighting how these influence decision fatigue, undervaluing time, and saying yes too often. We talk about practical strategies for delegation, setting boundaries, and lowering domestic standards. Remember, it's not about perfection but surviving and thriving in a system stacked against us. Your business can come first, it's okay to say no and prioritise yourself! **Key Takeaways** 1. Women carry a disproportionate mental load. Prioritize self-care. 2. Undervaluing your time leads to burnout. Charge your worth. 3. Delegate tasks at home and in business to lighten your load. 4. Boundaries aren't selfish; they're necessary for mental health. 5. One action can ripple positively. Start by saying yes to help.
Welcome back to The Spread Zone! The guys are shaking off a tough weekend at the PGA Championship and the Preakness to set their sights on a massive betting slate. First, they head to Texas for a "birdie fest" at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, where Tim breaks down why laying heavy chalk on Scottie Scheffler at +165 is a rare sweat-free play , while handing out Pierceson Coody (+4000) as a high-ceiling dart. Next, it's time to fire up the engines for the 110th running of the Indy 500 , where Riz lays out the race strategy and offers outright value on Alex Palou at +250 , plus a +1000 sprinkle on Josef Newgarden to navigate the chaotic late-race restarts. Finally, the crew dives into the NBA and NHL Conference Finals, with Anthony making his case for Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs (+160) to win the NBA Finals , before dropping an eye-opening rest-versus-rust betting trend explaining why the undefeated Carolina Hurricanes are on upset alert against the battle-tested Montreal Canadiens.The Spread Zone is presented by @FanDuel Sportsbook!https://www.101espn.com/podcasts/the-spread-zone/LEGAL DISCLAIMERWe provide information about sports betting for entertainment purposes only.

The advertising and media industry is going through a period of massive change, as a result of AI, economic and global pressures, organisational restructures and redundancies. In the latest market report from Campaign Red called “The Great Reboot”, we reported that the top holding companies cut 12,000 people from their businesses.As the industry is contracting, how are the people within it, its leaders and those seeking employment obtaining mentorship to push themselves and the industry forward?So far this year, we have seen the launch of mentorships schemes from The Marketing Skills Trust, Ogilvy UK and Rapp UK, an expansion of Lollipop mentoring's existing programme and launch of Zoo.London's career community.In this episode, Campaign's editorial team discusses why mentoring is so important in periods of rapid change, if adland puts enough value on the power of mentoring, and what happens if it's neglected altogether. Fiona Cameron joins the episode as vice president of women's professional support programme Bloom, and former learning and development partner at Group M, now called WPP Media. From Campaign, the episode features deputy editor Gemma Charles, deputy creativity and culture editor Charlotte Rawlings, and hosted by tech and multimedia editor Lucy Shelley.Further reading:Campaign Inspiring Women Awards winners 2026: Mentor of the YearWhat does it take to be an ad agency chief executive?

What would it look like to build a multi-million dollar business while raising six kids, advocating full-time for a child with autism, and navigating everything that nobody put in the business plan?That's exactly what Julie Cole did, and she didn't do it by following the standard playbook.Julie is the co-founder of Mabel's Labels, a brand she started almost 23 years ago with her sister and two college friends when her eldest son was diagnosed with autism at three years old. She left a career in law, started making labels in a basement at 2am, and built something real, not because the timing was perfect, but because she figured out what her actual capacity was and built around that.In this conversation, Julie and Nikita get into the conversation most business advice skips entirely: what actually has to shift when you're a mom, a caregiver, and an entrepreneur all at the same time, and why the skills you're already using at home are more valuable than you think.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why capacity is the first conversation, not the last: before strategy, before offers, before anything else, you need to know what you can actually carry and Julie's story shows exactly what happens when you get honest about that firstHow the skills you're already using as a caregiver translate directly into business: advocacy, research, negotiation, flexibility under pressure — these aren't soft skills, they're the exact skills that build something sustainableWhy entrepreneurship gets romanticized and what the real version looks like: Julie is direct about what those early years actually looked like, and it's not TED talks and wine nightsHow building a values-led company culture protects both your business and your life: From results-only work environments to neurodivergent hiring, Julie built a company that worked for real humans living real livesWhat the "care gap" actually means for women entrepreneurs: Whether or not you have kids, the invisible load is real, and building a business that pretends otherwise is building on a weak foundationWhy visibility creates credibility, which creates loyalty: Showing up — even when life is heavy, even when the pace feels impossible — is not about hustle, it's about trust⭐ Enjoyed this conversation?

In the latest episode of the Nonprofit News Feed, the hosts delve into the intricacies of giving and volunteering across the United States, as well as the pressing environmental challenges facing nonprofits today. The conversation highlights the recently conducted "Total Civic Generosity Report" by Whole Whale, which sheds light on geographic disparities in generosity and the significant contributions of small-dollar donors. Key Insights: Generosity Across Income Levels: The report reveals a striking contrast in charitable contributions between income levels. Households earning under $50,000 contribute about 14.2% of their income to charity, while those earning between $500,000 and $2 million contribute only 3.9%. This challenges the notion that high-value donors are more crucial than small-dollar donors, emphasizing the importance of valuing all levels of giving. State-Specific Generosity: Utah leads with the highest ratio of adjusted gross income giving at 6.61% and remarkable volunteer rates. This underscores the need for nonprofits to tailor messaging based on geographic data, recognizing the unique philanthropic landscapes of each state. Impact of Religious and Non-Affiliated Trends: The decline in religious affiliation impacts volunteerism, with many informal acts of generosity going unreported. This highlights the need for better data representation in understanding volunteer contributions.

#334: You can't manifest what you don't protect. And if you're still doing deals in DMs and hoping for the best… we need to talk.In the last episode of the How to Get What You Want series, I'm joined by attorney and tech founder Kameron Monet to get into the parts of the process we don't romanticize enough: the structure. The contracts. The negotiation. The uncomfortable emails. Because manifestation is cute — but protection is power.Our conversation goes beyond vision boards and affirmations and into the tactical moves that actually secure the life you're building. We talk about how to negotiate with conviction, what “perpetuity” really means (and why you should care), why you should never start work without a signed agreement, and how to stop leaving money on the table — whether you're a creator or a corporate girl.If you want more, you need the courage to ask for it and the infrastructure to keep it.This episode is your reminder that getting what you want isn't just about desire. It's about protecting your hard work, discipline and clarity with the right education.This episode is for you if…You've ever accepted an offer too quickly and regretted it later.You want more money, more opportunities and more ownership but don't know where to start.You feel intimidated by negotiation and you want to overcome that.You don't know what the “rule of three” is.You've worked without an agreement in place.You're dipping your toes into the creator economy.You're new to the world of corporate.You've signed contracts without fully understanding the terms.Episode Links:Follow Kameron on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kameronmonet/Follow Kameron on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kameronmonetFollow Kameron on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/kameronmonetFollow Kameron on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kameronmbuckner/For more information on the Social Docket: https://www.socialdocketdialogue.com/Follow the Social Docket on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/socialdocket/Download Social Docket's free foundational guide for creators to confidently navigate pricing when working with brands: https://www.socialdocketdialogue.com/resources/p/the-influence-income-pyramid.Sponsors:Equip: You deserve a life that isn't ruled by food stress, shame, or constant overthinking.

End chaos in your firm—300+ peers use this framework. Free video here: https://www.businessofarchitecture.com/framework Architects often feel squeezed by low fees that leave them overworked, under-supported, and with little time for true design. For small and residential firms in particular, this cycle can feel endless—too little profit, no space to hire help, and constant pressure to "make it work." Enoch and Rion explore how undercharging starts long before you send a fee proposal, and how one awkward early project shaped Enoch's view of money. They show why "breaking even" is actually a warning sign, not a win. You'll hear how low fees trap small and residential firms in a cycle of stress, weak hiring, and no time for real design. Together they reveal the shift in mindset that lets you really charge more and feel good about it. The quiet habit that makes even good projects unprofitable A pricing mistake that keeps you from hiring help One mental switch that lifts your fees without changing your service

She founded the agency during the 2008 recession, which is about as pressure-filled a launchpad as you can imagine. Before building a sustainable agency, Alicia wore a lot of creative hats: video game character artist for early mobile games, comic book artist for an urban vampire/werewolf series, and unpaid intern at a graphic design. These experiences heavily shaped how she thinks about value, pricing, and positioning today. In this episode, we'll discuss: Why agency pricing should feel scary. Educating clients who think your work is "easy." An approach to thought leadership that actually creates value.

Creating a Unique Path that Lead to Agency Ownership Like many agency owners, Alicia didn't start with a master plan. She started with a student loan bill that arrived a month before graduation and over a hundred job applications that led nowhere. When the traditional path failed, she did what resourceful creatives do: she pieced together work wherever she could find it. Freelance gigs turned into repeat work. Repeat work turned into confidence. And eventually, confidence turned into a business. She went from being an unpaid intern, to game designer, to a comic book designer, and forged a unique path, going from charging just $200 for her first freelance job to earning the confidence she needed to believe she could build her own business. Most agencies are born from survival more than a carefully thought business plan. The danger is that when you start that way, you often carry survival pricing and survival thinking far longer than you should. That early context matters, because it explains why so many agency owners struggle to raise prices later. From $200 Clients to Pricing That Feels Scary (In a Good Way) Alicia's first client paid her $200. She also did a lot of free work, because at the time, that felt like the only way in. What changed over the years wasn't some magic pricing formula. It was confidence. Marketing and creative work is deeply undervalued, especially compared to STEM or "expert" services. People don't argue over a $250 legal consult but they will argue endlessly over a logo. As Alicia grew, she learned three critical skills: Educating clients on the real cost of doing work right Having the confidence to say no Quoting prices that made her a little uncomfortable It wasn't easy, but mostly it just took time. How to Educate Clients Who Think a Logo Is "Easy" Alicia managed to reframe the value of branding for skeptical clients not by arguing but by analogizing. Instead of defending design directly, she compares it to plumbing, legal work, or real estate. You wouldn't hire a $5 freelancer to represent you in civil court, so why would you do that for the thing that represents your entire business? This framing does two things: It removes emotion from the conversation It positions branding as expert work, not artistic preference Clients should also understand the hidden cost of "cheap" solutions, especially with websites. Hiring a friend or a bargain provider usually leads to cut corners, broken functionality, and stalled growth when the person inevitably disappears. The goal isn't to lead with fear. It's to calmly explain consequences and let the client decide if cheap is really cheaper. Thought Leadership That Builds Trust (Not Clickbait) Thought leadership is an area where Alicia found significant success creating valuable educational content. In her view, it's also something most agencies get wrong. The problem isn't content volume. It's content relevance. In her experience, the key to producing this content is leading with research on what people want to hear about. She's also encountered many white papers that don't even offer any takeaways or new perspectives, which ends up diluting the trust on your brand. Alicia insists that everything she produces or is a part of must have key takeaways that her audience can translate into a real technical plan. She shared a four-part framework she uses before creating educational content: Motivation – Why does the audience care right now? Pain points – What problem are they actually trying to solve? Literacy level – How well do they understand the subject? Communication style – How do they prefer to consume information? The literacy piece is where most agencies mess up. If you speak marketing jargon to an audience that doesn't have that literacy, you don't sound smart. You sound patronizing. And nobody buys when they feel dumb. Alicia is intentional about making sure everything she puts out includes tangible takeaways—things people can write down and act on. Without that, it's just noise. Playing the Long Game with Content and Personal Brand This podcast started over a decade ago not as a growth hack, but out of curiosity. The goal was to let listeners be a fly on the wall. The payoff took years, but now it's a massive moat. People join our community and say they've been listening for years before ever raising their hand. That kind of trust doesn't come from ads with rented Lambos. But it also takes time and determination. Less than 7% of podcasts make it past episode three, and only about 1% make it beyond episode 23. From Alicia's perspective, finding your unique personality and value proposition is the hardest part of business. People are afraid to be different, but different is the whole point. Discovering your own value proposition on your own is like trying to tickle yourself. You need outside perspective to see what's actually special.

ValuationPodcast.com - A podcast about all things Business + Valuation.
Hi, welcome back to ValuationPodcast.com — a podcast and video series about all things business and valuation. I'm Melissa Gragg, a financial mediator and business valuation expert in St. Louis, Missouri.Today I'm joined by Jeff Condren, an advisor to family business owners in the Chicagoland area who specializes in next-generation transitions and building the right team to make those transitions successful.In this episode, we're digging into a topic that doesn't get talked about enough: how valuation decisions shape the entire family wealth system — from retirement planning and risk balancing, to succession, fairness among siblings, taxes, and even family harmony.5 Key TakeawaysValuation is a family systems decision, not just a number. How you value the business influences retirement planning, sibling expectations, governance, and future conflict.Regular valuations prevent stalled deals and “money left on the table.” Overvaluing can kill interest; undervaluing can cost millions — being prepared protects leverage.Business risk changes how owners invest outside the business. Many owners take big risk inside the company, then prefer a more conservative investment portfolio to balance total risk.Next-gen transitions require early exposure, not holiday dinner conversations. Families need a multi-year plan to share information, clarify values, and create ownership structures that don't explode later.The right accountability team reduces taxes and reduces family conflict. Coordinated planning with a CFO/treasurer, CPA/auditor, estate planner, financial advisor, and valuation expert prevents legal, tax, and sibling-war landmines.Q&As from the episode:Q1: Why do family business owners need regular business valuations?A: Regular valuations help owners set a realistic price if a buyer approaches, avoid over- or undervaluing the company, and plan retirement and succession with credible numbers.Q2: How does business valuation affect family wealth planning?A: The valuation influences estate planning, gifting decisions, tax strategy, portfolio risk, and how “fair vs. equal” is structured among children and heirs.Q3: What happens if a business owner undervalues their company during a sale?A: Undervaluing can leave millions on the table, weaken negotiating power, and create a sale price that doesn't match the real economic value of the business.Q4: Why do business owners delay succession planning?A: Many owners are emotionally attached to the business, unsure what they'll do after exiting, and focused on day-to-day operations instead of long-term transition strategy.Q5: Who should be on the team for a family business transition?A: Typically: an internal CFO/treasurer, an external CPA/auditor, a valuation expert, an estate planner, and a financial advisor to coordinate taxes, ownership, and post-sale planning.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/condren/Website: https://www.mesirow.com/bio/jeff-condrenJeffrey Condren is a Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor in Mesirow Wealth Management.

Send us a textWhat happens when associations aggressively advocate for their members, while quietly shortchanging the professionals who make that advocacy possible?In Episode 167, Elisa Pratt and Andrew Chamberlain unpack a timely and uncomfortable case from the UK that exposes a deeper, sector-wide challenge: how perceived value, power, and authority shape decisions about association staff compensation, governance, and respect. Using the current British Medical Association staff dispute as a lens, this conversation goes far beyond one organization, exploring reserves, volunteer decision-making, executive authority, cultural hierarchy, and the real consequences of undervaluing professional expertise.This episode is a must-listen for CEOs, board chairs, finance committee members, and volunteer leaders who care about credibility, sustainability, and the future of association leadership.Because advocacy starts at home, and how we treat our staff says everything about the values we claim to represent.
When you've been operating beneath your potential for a while and if you've been saying yes to the wrong things, downplaying your instincts, tolerating environments that don't demand your best, you're not being humble. You're hiding.You're playing a smaller game than you're built for. And when that happens, there's a quiet collapse. You lose your edge. You start settling. Your ambition gets blurry. You start to undervalue yourself.
On New Year's Day, Cyndera Quackenbush welcomes Julienne (Jules) Givot back to the Archetypal Tarot Podcast to revive a long-standing tradition: a collective archetypal and tarot reflection for the coming year. The episode serves as a contemplative portal blending tarot, archetypal psychology, lived experience, and cultural reflection after a difficult and grief-laden 2025. The core archetype drawn for the year is The Amateur, selected from the Identity Pursuit archetype board game (no longer in print). Rather than framing the future through mastery or expertise, the hosts explore the Amateur as a figure of humility, love, experimentation, and community. Light aspects of the Amateur: Doing something for love rather than reward or compensation Following the heart without needing certainty or expertise Allowing messiness, openness, and shared learning Creating the path by walking it, together Shadow aspects: Undervaluing oneself or one's work Exaggerating or misrepresenting skill or authority Cultural dangers of “false experts” and influencer culture lacking depth, lineage, or accountability The Amateur becomes a response to collapsing patriarchal systems, toxic productivity, and ego-driven power structures. In a time of upheaval, the hosts argue that not knowing—and admitting we don't know—is both honest and necessary. Community Over Heroism A recurring insight is the movement away from the lone hero narrative. Healing and survival are framed as collective, relational processes, not individual burdens. The Amateur archetype supports community-based learning, mutual care, and shared responsibility, especially amid political violence, war, and systemic injustice. Cyndera shares personal experiences offering donation-based tarot readings illustrating how amateur energy can reduce pressure, invite openness, and foster authentic connection—while still raising questions about value, sustainability, and self-worth. Two additional archetype cards pop out in the podcast! Listen in to hear all about The Poet and The Victim. Tarot Card for 2026: Judgment Cyndera draws Judgment from the Major Arcana, using Natasia Rowland's Tarot Emblemata deck. Key interpretations: Awakening after devastation Truth revealed; what was hidden can no longer stay hidden Liberation from old constraints (symbolized by broken shackles) A collective rising—not individual salvation Judgment is framed not as punishment, but as reckoning, clarity, and rebirth. It echoes upcoming astrological themes (notably the Fire Horse year) suggesting that small sparks from 2025 may explode into unavoidable illumination in 2026. The hosts close by weaving the Amateur and Judgment together: It's okay not to know. It's not all on our shoulders. Love, community, creativity, and faith (in whatever form) are sustaining forces. The future is not about perfection or mastery, but participation. Mantra for 2026: Be amateurs. Love what you do. Rise together. 2 + 0 + 2 + 6 = 10. After the recording of the podcast (on January 1) a rainbow was visible in Joshua Tree, CA. Is it possible that collectively we can welcome a “10 of Cups” kind of year?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with international best selling author and publishing mentor L.S. Kirkpatrick to get real about the invisible cost of entrepreneurship. Not the funnels or the hustle. The self doubt. They unpack what happens when your vision board comes down, the money is slow, and you start questioning your worth as a founder, creator or writer. L.S. shares how she went from stay at home grandmother to 22 time award winning author and publisher in just three years, why comparison to “ten year overnight successes” quietly kills momentum, and how to use your story as an asset instead of a wound. If you are building a business, writing a book or turning life experience into impact, this conversation will help you reset your metrics for success and remember that you are the most valuable asset in your brand. About the Guest: L.S. Kirkpatrick is an international best selling and 22 time award winning author, publisher and inspirational speaker. She helps women aged 40 to 65 reclaim their voice and purpose by turning real life experience into books, talks and legacy projects. In just three years she has contributed to or published 47 books, including her own 35 Day Journal and multiple collaborative “Giving Book” volumes. As founder of Wisdom On The Frontporch, a podcast and magazine, L.S. mentors purpose driven entrepreneurs who are ready to share their story without losing themselves in the process. Her work centres on self worth, storytelling and practical business skills for late blooming leaders. Key Takeaways: Self doubt is part of the entrepreneurial journey, not proof that you are failing. You can pause to reassess without quitting on your business. Stop comparing your year one to someone else's year ten. Context matters and most “overnight success” stories hide a long runway of learning. Your story does not have to be graphic to be powerful. You can share lessons, choices and patterns without retraumatising yourself or your audience. Service first is a better strategy than chasing money. Focus on helping people get results and financial growth tends to follow over time. Collaborative books and anthologies are a low risk way to test your message, build credibility and see if authorship fits your long term vision. Give yourself grace in the messy middle. You already have a one hundred percent track record of surviving hard days, and that resilience is part of your brand equity. How To Connect With L.S.

Podcast Notes Episode 489 Three Myths about Charging for Coaching (Rebroadcast) Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: October 30, 2025 In this episode, Brian and Chad unpack three common myths that hold coaches back from confidently charging for their services. Drawing from years of training and mentoring coaches, they discuss the internal beliefs and mindset barriers around money—especially within Christian coaching circles—and offer practical ways to build confidence, communicate value, and stop underselling the impact of coaching. Key Highlights The myth that "people can't afford coaching" often reflects a coach's own limiting beliefs rather than reality. Undervaluing yourself or the coaching process can prevent you from confidently seeking clients. Coaches often project their own financial limitations onto others, assuming clients can't or won't invest. Paying for your own coaching helps reinforce belief in its value and gives you firsthand credibility. Lowering prices rarely leads to better traction—it can confuse potential clients and devalue your offering. Takeaways Challenge your assumptions about what others can afford; avoid saying "no" on their behalf. Invest in your own coaching experience to build conviction and authenticity when selling. Recognize that coaching is about outcomes and transformation, not just the session time. Maintain pricing integrity—confidence and clarity communicate value better than discounts.

In this short but powerful episode, Ray Sclafani tackles a topic many financial advisors avoid: pricing. As firms expand their services beyond portfolio management into multi-generational planning, tax coordination, and family governance, their value has increased, but too often, their pricing hasn't.Ray challenges advisory leaders to view pricing not as a financial figure, but as a leadership decision that impacts enterprise value, team compensation, and client perception. He breaks down the mindset and mechanics required to evolve your pricing model with clarity, confidence, and consistency.This episode is a must-listen for firms committed to delivering premium services and ready to price like it.Key TakeawaysMost advisory firms are undercharging, not because clients can't pay more, but because firms haven't clearly defined and communicated their value.Legacy pricing models (flat AUM basis points) are misaligned with modern, complex service offerings.Advisors must embrace clarity, confidence, and consistency in how they present pricing.Top firms are evolving with tiered basis points, flat planning fees, and project-based pricing to reflect complexity.Find Ray and the ClientWise Team on the ClientWise website or LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeTo join one of the largest digital communities of financial advisors, visit exchange.clientwise.com.
Send us a textToo often, interior designers fall into the trap of undervaluing themselves and, by extension, our entire industry. In today's episode of The Business of Beautiful Spaces, I'm opening up about why it's time to change that narrative—because we aren't just creating beautiful spaces, we're building businesses that deserve respect, profitability, and longevity.I'll share a personal story about the moment I chose design over law school—and how even my father, a successful high-end builder in Toronto, doubted whether this could be a lucrative career. At the time, he wasn't wrong. But the world has changed. From TV and magazines to social media, design has taken center stage. And today, I can proudly say not only has my father changed his mind, but the next generation in my own family is pursuing design as a career—because they can see the opportunity for real wealth and success.This episode is about embracing that opportunity, raising the bar for our industry, and paving the way for the next generation of designers. Because profitability isn't just about paying yourself a salary—it's about building wealth, creating freedom, and setting new standards so that no designer is ever asked to justify their rates or share their discounts again.What you'll learn in this episode:Why undervaluing ourselves hurts the entire design industry.The mindset shift from “earning a salary” to “building wealth.”How to embrace profitability as a creative without guilt.Why community, mentorship, and accountability are key to raising industry standards.The legacy we can leave for the next generation of designers.It's time to stop apologizing for our value, start setting new standards, and create thriving businesses that reflect the true worth of our work.In just one focused hour, we'll dive into whatever you need most—pricing strategies, client management, attracting high-end clients or building repeat business. You'll get clarity, strategy, and expert advice based on my 27+ years of running a thriving, seven-figure design firm.This is your chance to get real answers to the questions you've been dying to ask—from someone who's actually been there.Book your session as you need it—no strings attached.Be sure to follow along on Instagram @thebusinessofbeautifulspaces + @thorntondesign to stay up to date on what we're talking about next week.

Welcome to Sell With Authority — I'm Hannah Roth, Director of Strategy here at Predictive ROI — and your resident mad scientist. If you've been around a while, you're probably used to hearing Stephen kick things off. But today's episode is a little different — you've got me in the driver's seat. And I've got my strategic co-pilot joining me — Erik Jensen, our Chief Strategy Officer. Erik and I are in the trenches every single day with agency owners, helping them spot and fix the nine money-draining mistakes — those sneaky patterns that quietly erode your profit, your confidence, and your growth. One of the biggest culprits we see over and over again is what we call the Expertise Discount. It's what happens when you downplay your value because the work feels “easy” to you. Erik and I are digging into how that mindset ties directly into multiple money-draining mistakes — and how it chips away at your distinction, creates confusion, and traps you in the underpricing cycle. We're giving you ways to reframe the value conversation — both in your own head and with your clients — so you can start charging what your expertise is truly worth. What you will learn in this episode: Why so many agency owners equate hours with value, and how this mindset leads to underpricing Why work that feels “easy” to you is often the most valuable to your right-fit clients — and why speed should command a premium The direct link between undervaluing your expertise and several of the 9 money-draining mistakes Practical ways to anchor your fees to outcomes — time saved, revenue unlocked, risk removed — instead of deliverables The subtle ways you may still be discounting yourself How to confidently raise rates, simplify your offer suite, and sell with clarity instead of apology Resources: Website: www.predictiveroi.com Visit our newly expanded Resource Library Join us in our free How to Fill Your Sales Pipeline Facebook Group Erik's LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/erik-jensen-b9946068/ Hannah's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hannah-roth-387a6b223/ Order your free paperback or Kindle copy of our Book: Sell with Authority

If you've ever found yourself giving away your expertise for free this episode is for you. I'm breaking down why you need to stop "helping" people without charging, especially if you're in a service-based or intellectual property business. A lot of us do it out of kindness or because we know the person could really benefit, but that's not a good enough reason to keep doing it. Whether it's a friend, family member, or someone who just “can't pay right now,” I'll tell you why that habit has to end today. So let's get into it. Show Notes: [01:59]#1 People do not appreciate what they have not invested in. [17:13]#2 You are devaluing your help and devaluing yourself when you give people help for free.

Send us a textYou didn't start your business to babysit, micromanage, or do all the things yourself. But if you're stuck in the weeds, carrying the weight of every decision, and wondering why scaling feels so heavy—you're not alone.Here's the truth: your people are your business. And if you're not treating them like the valued employees they are, you're leaving money, energy, and opportunity on the table. In this episode of Female Founder Unplugged, I'm breaking down how to shift from helper to high-impact leader—so you can build a team that grows your business without burning you out.Episode Highlights:
"How much do you charge?" Six simple words. But if you're like most freelancers, that question makes your stomach drop. You freeze. You ramble. You undercharge. You regret it. Why? Because it's a trap. And if you're not paying attention, you'll walk right into it. This week's episode breaks down exactly how to answer this question without sounding desperate, unsure, or cheap (no matter whether it comes via DM, email, or awkward in-person moment.) The 4 scenarios where you never give a number My actual templates you can use to stay in control How to filter out bad-fit clients without scaring off the good ones If you've ever fumbled this question (or avoided it completely), this is the episode that will fix it.

Summary: In today's world, many of our female loved ones are engaged in a very personal spiritual battle about their identity and calling as women, and how motherhood fits into that calling. This episode shows how the mistake of overvaluing motherhood will hurt them and how undervaluing motherhood can be devastating. Only the biblical worldview gets this balance right; so that is our topic today.For Further Prayerful Thought:How can understanding colonial culture where work took place at home, help you understand the conflict that today's mothers have between making a cultural contribution (vocation) and motherhood?How can you lead the way to help men understand that the separation of home and workplace means they have to work harder to build relationships with their family members, so they can lead their homes well?Recommended Resource:I highly recommend the primary source used in this episode to evaluate the impact of the Industrial Revolution on family life, Nancy Pearcey's book, Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from its Cultural Captivity For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men's issues click here.To make an online contribution to enable others to hear about the podcast: (Click link and scroll down to bottom left)
What happens when veterinary technicians are overworked, underpaid, and still fighting for recognition? The 2024 NAVTA Demographic Survey reveals the harsh reality, and this week on The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, unpack what it all means for the future of veterinary medicine. Despite their essential role, most vet techs still earn significantly less than comparable healthcare professionals. Worse, they're burning out fast. Many are working second (or even third) jobs to make ends meet. Only 8% report being “extremely satisfied” with their current role, and more than half are actively considering leaving the profession within the next five years. Dr. Ward and Beckie explore how low wages, chronic underutilization, and the continued lack of legal title protection are driving professionals out of the field. They break down the downstream impact on patient care, clinic morale, and team dynamics, and challenge veterinary leaders to stop ignoring the growing crisis. This episode isn't just about paychecks—it's about purpose, protection, and survival. If we don't act now to support our veterinary technicians, we risk losing the very backbone of our clinics.
