Are you afraid that people who need you can’t afford you? And is this one reason why you discount your fees at times?

I want to remind you that “underearning” is about your personal pattern of earning less than your potential. Underearning is not about the economy. It is about you and your history and feelings around charging people and receiving money. The economy is an outside factor that may also be affecting you.
When you undersell yourself— setting …

It’s true—I haven’t posted for a while. I am busy doing a ton of writing, as well as working with a new marketing consultant. I’ll be “debuting” new content for you soon. In particular, I’ve been working on the “metaphysics of money”. I believe that now more than ever, we need to use every tool …

It’s snowing outside. And here in Seattle, where there are (maybe) three snowplows, everything stops. I mean everything.

As you read previously, I’ve been working on my 2009 income and spending plan for the Women’s Earning Institute. I planned out all my income streams for 2009. It was quite lovely. Then I had to plan out what it would cost me…. The process below is what I would recommend you do for yourself—it …

I’ve been busy creating my 2009 income and spending plan for next year, for the Women’s Earning Institute. I do this work with clients all the time, and know first hand how powerful it is. (Don’t think for a minute that I don’t practice what I preach!) An annual income and spending plan process incorporates …
