Why confident entrepreneurs still hesitate when they say their price

You know your worth. You've got the credentials, the experience, the client results. And yet when it comes time to say your rate, there's that pause. That moment where your voice almost wobbles.

If this sounds familiar, you're not alone. And according to financial clarity expert Linda Hunt, it's not actually a confidence problem.

In this episode, Linda (Founder of SumSolutions) shares what she discovered after years of being overworked, underpaid, and wondering why the numbers never seemed to match the effort. She walks us through the framework that helped her move from burnout to alignment, and why pricing has less to do with spreadsheets and more to do with feeling safe.

We talk about:

📌Why undercharging often has nothing to do with numbers (it's a nervous system issue)

📌How your body influences the way you speak about money—and what to do about it

📌Why time is your most valuable asset and how most of us are miscalculating it

📌The shift from trading hours to pricing for transformation

📌What it actually looks like to build a business that honours rest, not just revenue

Linda's got a book coming out called The Money Conversation, and this episode gives you a preview of the mindset shifts that make sustainable pricing possible.

This one's for you if you're ready to stop hustling harder just to stay afloat and start building something that actually supports your life.

What happens when you’ve done everything “right” in business, worked hard, stayed consistent, invested in yourself, and money still feels tense, limited, or just out of reach?

Money mindset coach and serial entrepreneur Halle Eavelyn says the issue isn’t your strategy. It’s the invisible conditioning shaping how safe you feel receiving more.

In this episode, Laura Bell and Vicki Abraham explore how women are taught to cap their success, question their worth, and push abundance away, and what shifts when those beliefs are gently but intentionally rewritten.

From dissolving imposter syndrome to expanding your capacity to earn without burning out, this conversation reframes wealth as something you allow, not chase.

You’ll hear about:

📌 The hidden money ceilings most women don’t realise they’re living under

📌 Why imposter syndrome shows up strongest right before growth

📌 How money functions as energy, not a limited resource

📌 Simple practices to calm fear and stop self-sabotage around income

📌 Why women building wealth changes families, communities, and futures

If you’ve ever undercharged, delayed opportunities, or thought “that’s not for me” when you see someone else’s success, this episode is your invitation to choose differently.

🎧 Listen now and ask yourself: What would change if I trusted myself to receive more?

Feeling busy, successful… yet quietly questioning why you’re doing all of this? You’re not alone.

In this episode, Vicki and Laura unpack why even accomplished entrepreneurs think about quitting more often than they admit and how reconnecting with your purpose can bring clarity, direction, and renewed energy back into your business.

Here’s what we explore:

📌 Why constant hustle creates noise instead of momentum

📌 How your purpose can shift as you grow (and why that’s not a failure)

📌 The role clarity plays in attracting aligned clients and repelling the rest

If you’ve been doing “all the right things” but still feel disconnected or restless, this conversation will help you slow down, refocus, and remember what actually matters.

🎧 Watch until the end to feel clearer, calmer, and more grounded in the work you’re building.

What if the biggest thing holding your business back isn’t strategy, but conditioning?

In this episode, we sit down with Bobbi, a 66-year-old trans woman, transformational speaker, and coach who spent 60 years living in conditioned fear before making two parallel transitions: one in gender, and one in mindset.

The result? A radical shift from masculine hustle and control energy, to feminine authenticity and happiness.

We Talk About:

🔥 Why “stop doing, start being” is great business advice

🌀 How conditioned beliefs shape identity, energy, and results - and they can be changed

💖 How authenticity opens doors to thrive

🐺 Awareness, commitment, and which wolf to feed!
