If the word "sales" makes you want to hide, this episode is your turning point. Liz Steblay—founder of ProKo Agency and co‑founder of PICA (Professional Independent Consultants of America)—shares a practical blueprint for solopreneurs to win premium clients without feeling salesy. We unpack the mindset shift from "closing" to discovering fit, how to narrow your niche so you become memorable and referable, and actionable pricing tactics so you finally charge what you're worth. We also get real about FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt), daily grounding practices that keep you centered, and why community beats going it alone. If you're building a business on your own terms, this conversation will feel like fresh air.
