This week on the Regenerative Business Podcast, Sam takes you inside our second-ever listener Q&A — answering three rich, tender, and deeply practical questions submitted by fellow entrepreneurs walking the conscious business path.

First, we explore why so many intuitive, creative, and spiritually-led business owners avoid data… and how to help them embrace metrics without feeling controlled, restricted, or “corporatized.” Sam breaks down the emotional history behind data avoidance, the masculine–feminine balance that makes metrics supportive (not oppressive), and how to educate your audience so they feel empowered instead of defensive.

Next, we move into the nuances of building an equitable sliding scale — especially for therapists and service providers committed to serving communities impacted by systemic violence. Sam shares frameworks like the Green Bottle Method, ways to calculate sustainable pricing for in-person spaces, how to plan for vacancy, and how to create fairness without sacrificing your ability to make ends meet.

Finally, Sam answers a vulnerable question about the somatic panic that arises when raising prices — even when your mind knows you’re undercharging. We cover the psychology behind “price ceilings,” how to identify the hidden thoughts driving body-based resistance, small-step somatic expansion techniques, and creative practices for meeting your future self who already charges the higher rate with ease.

This episode is a blend of strategy, nervous system wisdom, and regenerative business principles — perfect for entrepreneurs craving grounded guidance that honors both intuition and data, both impact and sustainability.
