Show Notes
One of the things many of us struggle with is the conundrum of how to make more money in a way that feels good - especially in a world that feels so unequal and unfair. Many heart-centered folks really struggle with the concept of charging rates that allow them to thrive - especially for work that feels like it's a gift to them. Throw in our feminine conditioning around putting ourselves last, not asking for our needs, not taking up space etc. and there's little wonder the concept of money and charging I recently hosted an online virtual garden party event shindig, virtual retreat type thing and it was delightful. It was just so lovely, it was a free event, we had guest speakers and the theme was all around how do we continue to build businesses that are sustainable, not just financially, but also energetically and emotionally. So I thought I would share some of the recordings of some of the sessions over the next few episodes with you. So today, I'm going to be sharing one of my sessions which was how we can, as coaches and healers, reframe this concept of value because, for a lot of us, we really struggle with charging enough to be able to survive and thrive in our businesses. I think there's a number of particular reasons for that, so we talk about how we can overcome that, how to make more money in a way that feels good, we do a bit of live coaching and it's all-around lovely. The event focused on how we can do business differently - moving away from the testosterone, go! Go! Go! Sleep is for losers approach that's advocated in some parts of the internet (I'm looking at you, Gary V) and instead find ways to make our businesses sustainable financially, economically and emotionally. In this episode of the podcast I'm sharing one of the sessions I did around financial sustainability - namely, How we can reframe the concept of 'value' and make more money in a way that feels good, isn't manipulative or exploitative and allows us to thrive as coaches, healers, and holistic folk. You'll get to hear me live coach some of the participants around things like: recognizing the value we bring, how to NOT discount your fees How we can charge sustainable fees when we're surrounded by so many people in need who don't have the means to afford those fees.
