In this soul-stirring solo episode, Tiffany calls out the secret belief so many therapists carry: “I know a premium fee practice is possible… but not for me.” 

Maybe you’ve listened to every episode. You follow all the stories. You want to believe it’s possible. But some part of you still whispers: Not for me. 

This episode isn’t a pep talk. It’s a reckoning. 

Tiffany names the generational trauma, the systemic injustice, and the internalized story that makes risk feel unsafe—even deadly. She speaks directly to the therapist who’s done everything right, but still can’t bring herself to believe she deserves a business that gives more than it takes. 

If you’ve been stuck on the edge—paralyzed by fear, guilt, or self-doubt—this is the episode that might finally set you free.

In this episode, Tiffany shares: 

Why that “special snowflake” belief (everyone else can do it, but not me) isn’t personal—it’s historical;

The hidden trauma therapists carry from generations of systemic failure and punishment for ambition;

How internalized oppression turns desire into danger—and how to take your power back; 

Why waiting for the fear to go away is a trap—and how freedom comes from taking the risk; 

What changes when you bet on yourself—and how that choice echoes through generations.

If this episode hit you in the gut… it’s not by accident.

In this eye-opening episode of The Money Sessions, Tiffany sits down with longtime colleague and LIMB Academy alum Jenn Fredette to talk about what it really takes to build a thriving premium fee private practice in 2025.

 From burnout to Big Macs, from Facebook ads to archetypal marketing, this conversation really cuts through the fear and noise therapists are feeling right now.  

Jenn shares powerful insights into how the marketing landscape has changed—and what has stayed the same—and why therapists must stop over-functioning and start getting strategic if they want to attract clients willing to pay premium fees.  

If you’ve been wondering whether a cash-pay, high-fee practice is still possible in 2025, this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode, Jenn shares: 

Why marketing is just another kind of relationship (and you already know how to do it);

How the myth of “I’ll raise my fees once I’m full” keeps therapists stuck in burnout;

The difference between lead generation, messaging, and conversion—and why it matters;

Why “nurture marketing” doesn’t convert (and what to do instead);

The timeless marketing principles that still work in the age of AI, BetterHelp, and SEO overload.

In this episode of The Money Sessions, Tiffany tackles a phrase she’s heard time and time again: “I don’t want to only work with rich people.”  

If you’ve ever felt conflicted about charging premium fees while staying true to your values, this conversation is for you.  

Tiffany dismantles the myth that high-fee therapy is only for the elite—and shows how therapists can build sustainable businesses that allow them to give back without burning out.  

This is the dose of truth and clarity therapists need in a world that too often confuses martyrdom with generosity.

In this episode, Tiffany shares: 

Why most therapists can’t afford to offer low-fee therapy—and why that’s not a moral failing;

The real privilege required to do “cheap therapy” without sacrificing your wellbeing;

How financially secure therapists are actually more generous with their time, energy, and presence;

The wide variety of people—not just the wealthy—who find ways to pay premium fees for therapy;

Why it’s not your job to figure out how clients afford you.

In this episode, we’re speaking with Ginelle Krummey, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and LIMB grad based in North Carolina.  

In today’s interview with Tiffany, Ginelle talks about how she continued to move forward even after she got off of insurance panels and lost about half of her caseload.  

While her husband was also leaving his job. With a baby on the way.  

At this point, many therapists would have given up, gone back, said it was impossible and returned to the relative security of a soul-crushing system—but not Ginelle.  

Ginelle was determined to move forward and create the life that she ACTUALLY wanted for herself, a life that was in integrity with who and how she wanted to be.  

Here’s her story. 

In this episode, Ginelle shares: 

How Ginelle decreased her hours and set a schedule that worked for her (which included leaving ALL insurance panels); 

Three signs that made it clear that she needed to make a massive shift to her schedule and practice, even as other life transitions were happening; 

The “afterlife”—what happened after she made these changes and how it prepared her for the world events that were to come; 

Three pieces of strategic advice around shifting your mindset to help you be in integrity with who and how you want to be (even if it’s scary); 

How she and her community were impacted by Hurricane Helene; 

How building a life and practice that truly supports her helped her navigate the hurricane and its aftermath with resilience, ease, and the ability to support others.

I’m looking for 3 therapists who are ready to break free from the low fee trap. Find me on Instagram @leaninmakebank and DM me the word “POWER."

When therapists talk to me about needing to give back and be accessible, I often think about my own experience as a sliding scale client.

I know what it feels like to pay a sliding scale fee. I know what it means to need help and not be able to afford it.

But being a sliding scale client has its dark sides.
