## Resource

Still leaving money on the table? Here's the uncomfortable truth: most freelancers underprice themselves—not because they lack skill, but because they're scared of what clients will say. In this episode, Preston and Austin Church dig into the fear of raising rates and what's really holding freelancers back from charging what agencies charge. Austin breaks down the psychology behind client decisions, why replacing you costs them more than you think, and how higher prices can actually make clients trust you more. If you're ready to stop trading time for too little money and start positioning yourself like the authority you already are... this one's for you.
