In this episode, I cover: Why pricing brings up so much emotional stuff — even for experienced coaches Where our money stories come from and how they shape our pricing decisions My own journey from scarcity thinking to finally charging what I'm worth The stories we tell ourselves that keep us undercharging (\"Who am I to charge that?\") Why undercharging isn't humble — it's often just hiding The difference between knowing your value intellectually and feeling it in your body What cha…","meta_description":"Here's what no one tells you about pricing: it's not really about the numbers.
