The era of women undercharging is over. And that includes outsourcing your pricing decisions.    If you've ever landed on a number and immediately texted a friend, asked your partner, polled your mastermind, or opened Chat to double-check, this episode is your wake-up call.   Pricing is not a consensus decision. It is one of the clearest ways you claim economic power and independence in your business. But the moment you hand your number to someone else for approval, you cap your authority and put a ceiling on your income.   In this episode, I break down exactly who not to outsource your pricing to, why it feels so tempting in the moment, and how this single habit keeps women earning below their capacity. And more importantly, you'll learn what to anchor into instead.   Because your pricing isn't something to vote on - it's something you stand behind.   In this episode, I talk about: Why outsourcing your pricing is one of the most common income leaks in women-owned businesses.   Who you should never hand your pricing authority to, even if they love you.   How family, peers, and AI can unintentionally cap your income ceiling.   What happens to self-trust when you keep double-checking your number.   The calibration questions that replace "Is this okay?" with strategic clarity.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out The Pricing Room™, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/126
If you've ever hesitated before saying your number, padded your offer with extras to make it feel safer, or stayed at the same rate longer than you knew you should, this conversation is for you.   In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on one of the most common and costly pricing patterns women fall into: setting prices that reflect who they used to be, not who they are becoming.    Pricing is not a neutral business decision. It's a mirror. Every number you name reflects your identity, your standards, and what you feel emotionally available to receive. When pricing comes from an old version of yourself, it creates an income ceiling that you can feel in your body and see in your bank account.   Tune in this week as I walk you through how to spot if you're compromising your pricing, why even high-earning women still fall into this without realizing it, and how to shift into emotionally clear pricing that feels calm, grounded, and powerful.   In this episode, I talk about: The six signs your pricing is still protecting, pleasing, or playing small.   How patriarchal money rules still shape women's pricing decisions.   The distinction between compromised pricing and emotionally clear pricing.   Key coaching questions to recalibrate your pricing to your current identity.   How pricing becomes a declaration of who you are becoming as a woman and a business owner.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's NEW FREE workshop Your Pricing Breakthrough, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/125
The era of women underpricing is officially over.   In this episode I break the illusion that more work creates more money. The real lever for growth isn't expansion—it's pricing that's designed to match your expertise, your results, and the level you're here to operate at.   For years, women were taught that income increases after effort, explanation, and proof. That conditioning shaped how pricing was set—and why so many brilliant women still carry rates that lag behind the results they deliver.   We're talking about pricing as the foundation that allows growth to feel supported, spacious, and sustainable—without adding more offers, more content, or more pressure.   If you're ready to stop asking your business to stretch harder and start letting pricing do its job, this conversation will shift how you see income—and how you build from here.   Because pricing is the lever that unlocks more freedom, choice, and support inside your business.    In this episode I talk about: Why underpricing was never a mindset flaw but a patriarchal inheritance.   The specific – and outdated - money rules that shaped how women were taught to charge.   The difference between low pricing and unstrategic pricing.   Why pricing is the only growth strategy that increases income without adding complexity.   The key shift that turns pricing into a strategic advantage instead of a stress point.   What higher pricing actually funds in your business, including time, support, and freedom.   Powerful coaching questions to pinpoint where your pricing needs attention right now.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's NEW FREE workshop Your Pricing Breakthrough, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/124
If paying yourself from your business is inconsistent, delayed, or feels oddly complicated, you're not alone—and it's not because you're 'bad' with money.   In this episode, I'm breaking down Owner's Pay 101 and showing you exactly how to pay yourself based on your business structure, whether you're a solo business owner, an LLC, or a corporation.   We'll cover what owner's pay actually is (and what it is not), why leaving it undefined always means you come last, and how owner's pay works through payroll, owner's draws, and distributions.   Just as importantly, we'll address the emotional patterns that keep so many capable, successful women hesitant to pay themselves consistently, including the 3 leadership shifts required to stabilize owner's pay.   Paying yourself consistently isn't about spreadsheets or systems. It's about ending the cycle where your business gets richer while you stay financially tight.   In this episode, I talk about: What owner's pay is, and why it's not "whatever is left over."   How owner's pay works for solo businesses, LLCs, and S Corporations.   Why underpaying yourself is rarely about math and always emotional.   How ballooning expenses often replace paying yourself without you realizing it.   Why consistency matters more than the amount when paying yourself.   The three leadership shifts required to stabilize owner's pay.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's NEW FREE workshop Your Pricing Breakthrough, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/123
January has a way of pulling women into working harder around money than necessary.    Plans get more detailed, options multiply, and instead of choosing, decisions stay open. In this episode, I'm calling out the subtle trap that shows up for so many women in January: overcomplicating instead of leading.    Listen in this week to learn where exactly this overcomplication shows up most often. You'll learn the four micro decisions that actually move income early in the year, along with three in-depth coaching questions to help you step out of complexity and back into clarity. Plus, I also share how I trimmed my own annual plan and how this type of simplification is exactly what immediately strengthens income growth.   If you're ready to stop revisiting choices and start letting income momentum build, this episode shows you exactly how.   In this episode, I talk about: Why January pulls women into overthinking instead of leadership.   How to spot when you're overcomplicating your business.    Why higher earning women don't do more things better, but do fewer things consistently.   The difference between decisions that get traction and decisions that drift.   Why pricing creates income when it's set clearly and led confidently, not when it's endlessly debated.   How decisions that are allowed to mature definitely compound, and why reopening them breaks momentum.   3 coaching questions to simplify your business and free up energy and money immediately.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's NEW FREE workshop Your Pricing Breakthrough, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/122  
If you want a different financial year, you don't need better goals. You need decisions that don't keep reopening.   January is often treated like a fresh start filled with planning, possibilities, and new intentions. But what actually determines your momentum this year isn't how inspired your goals feel; it's whether your decisions stay confirmed.    In this episode, I'm offering a reframe about January that can change how you lead yourself all year long. Because January isn't a goal month, it's a decision month.   You'll learn why re-deciding is not neutral, how emotional authority creates momentum, and what it actually looks like to lead yourself after a decision is made. I'll share three coaching questions to help you identify the one decision that keeps reopening and close it cleanly.    If your goals feel clear but you want to be sure that you stay on track beyond January's new year blush, this conversation will help you stabilize your choices so they can finally compound.    In this episode, I talk about: Why January is a decision month, not a goal month.   The emotional tax of re-deciding and how to build self-trust in your choices.   The difference between flexibility vs self-abandonment when it comes to your choices.   Why you don't owe every doubt a conversation or every wobble a renegotiation.   3 coaching questions to help you close a decision cleanly.   How decision stability creates the momentum that leads to making more money.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out the Sacred Money Archetypes quiz, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/121        
If your money goals don't require you to become someone new, they aren't doing their job.   In this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast, Kendall breaks down why extraordinary money goals are not about pressure or hustle. They are identity activators. The moment you claim one, your standards rise, your decisions sharpen, and every place you've been negotiating with your potential comes into focus.   This conversation is an invitation to stop performing financial modesty and start telling the truth about what you want. It's the decision to let ambition lead—and to allow income to finally match impact, leadership, and self-worth.   If you're ready to set a money goal that requires a new version of you to emerge, this episode will change how you relate to money—and who you become in the process.   This is not about wanting more for the sake of more. This is your invitation to choose the goal that calls your next level forward.   In this episode, I talk about: How extraordinary money goals require a new version of you to exist and emerge.   The real reason women hesitate to claim bigger financial goals.   How extraordinary money goals require identity evolution, not more strategy.   Why choosing an extraordinary money goal is a direct refusal to perform smallness.   How to set money goals that strengthen your self-concept instead of shrinking it.   The questions extraordinary money goals require you to answer about your business and money patterns.   Why identity creates income and how to practice being her before you hit the goal.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out the Sacred Money Archetypes quiz, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/120
If you've ever entered a new year full of ideas, plans, and ambition, only to feel overwhelmed before February, this episode is your reset.   In this encore, I'm sharing the simplest, most powerful income tool I've ever used: your Money Word of the Year.    I walk you through how to choose a Money Word that actually does something for you. One that upgrades your standards, exposes what you're done tolerating, and supports you in making cleaner, more confident decisions all year long. This is how high-earning women create momentum without burning themselves out.   If you want a year that feels grounded, profitable, and aligned with the woman you're becoming, this conversation will give you the start you're looking for.   In this episode, I talk about: Why high-income women don't rely on planners to grow their income.   What a Money Word of the Year really is, and why it works as a financial tool.   How one word becomes a decision filter for pricing, offers, time, and money.   Why choosing multiple words creates confusion instead of clarity.   Why committing to one word for a full year accelerates identity-level change.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's Money Word of the Year freebie, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/119
What if claiming a million-dollar goal isn't really about the goal… but about the woman you become the moment you decide you're worthy of it?   That's the question that made this the #1 most downloaded, shared, and talked-about episode of the entire year — the episode that cracked something open for so many ambitious, sensitive women who had been quietly carrying a million-dollar desire inside them.   In this powerful replay, I'm taking you behind the scenes of the moment I chose my million-dollar goal — long before I had the strategy, the plan, or anything that looked "reasonable." What I discovered is choosing a million-dollar goal is less about the money, and all about upgrading your self-image, your standards, and saying yes to your potential.   And to get you started, I'll show you how to quickly spot the subtle money blocks whispering that you should "be realistic."   This episode became the most-loved episode of the year for a reason and if you're looking for real-life inspiration, this replay is a must-listen!   In this episode, I talk about: Why claiming a million-dollar goal immediately reshapes your identity — before a single dollar arrives.   How to recognize money blocks disguised as "logic" or "realism."   Why a fuller client roster often reduces stress (yes, really).   How to use your million-dollar goal to expand emotionally instead of criticizing yourself.   What shifts when you start valuing your expertise at a million-dollar level.   How your decision to aim higher opens financial pathways for other women — and why that's money feminism in action.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's Time Freedom freebie, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/118
If you're ready to make next year your most financially expansive yet, the real work starts now.   Before you dive into your shiny new goal-setting system, let me hit you with a truth bomb: if you don't clear your emotional runway from 2025, your new goals will be built on shaky ground.    Emotional residue from unmet goals creates money ceilings and financial hesitation. But when you learn how to work with your emotions and see them as a tool - not a block - that's when the magic happens.   Tune in this week as I walk you through a 3-step money feminist goal prep process for reviewing your year without judgement. You'll discover how to reframe your past goals with compassion, identify the growth you've had this year (yes, it's there!), and use that emotional clarity to step into a more profitable future.    In this episode, I talk about: Why emotional residue from unmet goals creates money ceilings and financial hesitation.   The three-step money feminist goal prep process for reviewing your year without judgment.   How to identify the four reasons your goals may not have happened.   Questions that reveal the hidden progress inside your incomplete wins.   The difference between performance audits and identity expansion reviews.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's Sacred Money Archetypes freebie, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/117
Before you write a single goal for the new year, you need one thing first: your Money Word of the Year.    This word becomes your money directive, sharpening your decisions and moving your income forward faster than any planner or color-coded system ever could.    In this episode, I walk you through what your Money Word of the Year is and what it's not, plus the five secrets to using it as your primary money decision tool.    You'll learn exactly how to choose a word that holds energy, meaning, and direction for you - a word that upgrades your income, your standards, and your identity. This is how you stop spinning in possibility and start creating a year filled with million-dollar decisions.   In this episode, I talk about: How to choose a Money Word of the Year that transforms your income.   Why focusing on multiple words splits your attention and blocks 7-figure clarity.   The specific questions to ask when testing whether a word has real power for your business.   What to do when your word triggers resistance or doubt, and why that's your growth edge.   How to apply any word to income creation.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's Money Word of the Year freebie, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/116
High-earning women don't just think differently about money. We speak differently.    In this episode, I'm showing you the five phrases high-earning women never use when talking about money. These tiny sentences shape your identity, your self-trust, and your income far more than any spreadsheet, strategy, or calculator ever could.   Join me this week as I walk you through five things I would never say about money - not because I'm perfect or fearless - but because removing these from my vocabulary is exactly what helped me go from "never enough" to becoming a self-made multimillionaire.   You'll hear why phrases like "I can't afford it" and "I'm not ready" are actually expensive forms of self-protection, how they drain your clarity and income, and what to say instead when you're leading your life and business from emotional authority instead of fear. This is what money feminism looks like in practice: refusing to shrink your desires, choosing truth over hesitation, and raising your identity to match your vision.   In this episode, I talk about: Why "I can't afford it" is hesitation disguised as practicality.   How high-earning women don't collapse their desire to match a price tag.   Why believing money can be wasted puts you into emotional debt with yourself.   How "I'm not ready" is fear with lipstick on (and what to say instead).   What money feminism actually looks like in your language and decisions.   The emotional honesty required to create the money and life you desire.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's brand new FREE workshop UPLEVEL, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/115
If you've been feeling that internal shift - that inner restlessness, spark of desire, or the sense that something in you has outgrown where you are - that is not random. That is your next level activating. And ambitious, sensitive women like you feel their growth internally long before it shows up in your numbers.   In this episode, I'm walking you through the five emotional signals that show you are ready for an uplevel, and why these intuitive cues are more financially accurate than any spreadsheet or launch plan. Because emotional shifts always precede income expansion.   Join me to learn the five powerful indicators because once you learn to interpret them, you'll see why your readiness doesn't show up as calm in the beginning; but it always shows up as clarity at the end.   This is your invitation to trust the inner shift instead of waiting for the outer proof. Your next level is already forming inside you. Now it's time to step into it.   In this episode, I talk about: Why ambitious, sensitive women feel their next level emotionally before they ever see it financially.   How dissatisfaction with what no longer fits is actually your first sign of expansion.   Why craving more ease (not more effort) is the emotional precursor to higher income.   What it means when you can't stop imagining bigger numbers.   How intolerance for emotional micro leaks is your signal you're ready for an uplevel.   Why delayed decisions suddenly feel urgent when your next level is ready.   Key shifts that happen immediately once you say yes to your uplevel.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's brand new FREE workshop UPLEVEL, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/114
Most women don't realize that their emotional state is the single biggest predictor of how much money they'll make this year.    Because the emotion you wake up in - certainty or doubt, self-trust or self-pressure - becomes the engine behind every decision you make, every price you name, and every opportunity you say yes or no to. An emotion isn't just a feeling. It's an investment. And some emotions yield a much higher return on your income than others.   In this episode, I'm breaking down the emotional economy of your business—why emotional profit versus emotional debt determines your speed, your stability, and your ability to create consistent money.   You'll learn the three emotional KPIs that predict income more accurately than any strategy, plus four shifts that help you step into emotional authority so you're leading your business instead of reacting to it.   This is the work that makes your decisions cleaner, your momentum faster, and your prices easier to stand behind.   In this episode, I talk about: The 3 emotional KPIs that predict your income more accurately than any business strategy.   How to run an 'emotional economy audit' so you can see exactly where you're leaking power…and where profit is waiting.   How emotional recovery speed sets high-earning women apart—and stabilizes your income faster.   What emotional capacity really means and how it directly expands your ability to earn more.   The difference between emotional authority and emotional reaction—and why only one creates sustainable income.   Four practical shifts to make your business emotionally profitable starting today.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out Kendall's brand new FREE workshop UPLEVEL, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/113
Beautiful coach, every financial choice you make - how you price, how you save, how you invest - is either a case for your power or a reflection of old conditioning that was never meant to serve you.    Money isn't neutral for women; it's personal, political, and powerful. It's the thread that weaves through your sovereignty, your self-concept, and your freedom to choose.   In this episode, I'm breaking down why money is feminist work, and how every financial decision you make is either an act of liberation or a continuation of outdated patterns. You'll see how pricing, saving, and investing are not just smart business moves, but radical declarations of self-trust and self-determination.   We'll also talk about what it means to embody money feminism, and why getting your financial house in order isn't just responsible, it's revolutionary.   In this episode, I talk about: Why money is not emotionally neutral for women and how it's been used as a tool of control for thousands of years.   4 examples of what money personally mirrors for you.   The radical shift from asking "Can I afford this?" versus "What will this return?".   What true financial power looks like when you stop waiting for approval to be wealthy.   How paying off debt, raising your rates, and creating overflow are all feminist acts.   The hidden reason traditional money advice keeps women small (and what to do instead).   Practical ways to build genuine wealth on your own terms—with zero guilt, apology, or compromise.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to join Secret Energy of Money®, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/112
Whether you have just a handful of private clients or your business includes masterminds, retreats or workshops, there's a good chance you've been accidentally leaking money in your coaching business.   In this episode, I'm spilling the tea on 6 specific places where you are likely leaving money on the table - and how to close those gaps quickly.   These shifts aren't about hustling harder or launching something new. They're about simple, powerful upgrades to how you already operate in your coaching business.   Listen in this week to discover six clear income-producing ideas to add more money to your coaching business, plus 6 easily fixable habits that can easily add six figures to your revenue in a relatively short time. Grab your favorite pen—this one's about to multiply your income.    You'll learn:   How to make renewals feel natural, not awkward.   The upgrade offer your best clients are secretly hoping for.   When to slide back into your past clients' inbox (yes, even that one).   The timely pricing review you're probably not yet doing.   One powerful belief that turns your service-driven intention into fresh income.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to join Kendall in the FREE virtual workshop: OVERFLOW, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/111
Yes, the world feels uncertain right now: more hesitation, slower yeses, clients needing more time to choose their coach.   But this isn't just a passing season. We're in a trust recession—and surprisingly, this is actually good news for you.   In this episode, I'm breaking down what's really happening in the coaching space—and how to lead through it. Because while the world may be uncertain, you don't have to be.   You'll discover why coaching skill is the highest currency in this trust recession, why 'pricing down' isn't the answer, and what clients are truly paying for now: precision, resonance, and results.   This is your moment to rise as a coach whose sessions build trust, create movement, and make premium fees feel aligned.   In this episode, I talk about:   What a "trust recession" really means and why it's permanently transforming the coaching industry.    Why emotional safety, not strategy, is what sells in uncertain times.   How to become the certainty your clients crave in a chaotic world.   Why 'pricing down' is the wrong move—and what to do instead.   The one coaching question that reveals exactly where you need to strengthen your skills.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out the Courageous Coaching Certification,  click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/110
What do your income and your inner standards have in common? Everything.   High-earning women don't just have great strategies — they have powerful standards that shape how they price, lead, and make money.   In this episode of The Money Coach School, I'm sharing 6 inner standards that separate high-earning coaches from the ones who stay stuck. These aren't personality traits — they're choices. And the moment you raise your standard, your business shifts with it.   If you've been overgiving, undercharging, or waiting for permission to lead at a higher level — this is your wake-up call. Because your next income level isn't earned through effort. It's claimed through standards.   In this episode, I talk about:   Why high-earning coaches don't tie their income to their identity — and what they lead with instead.   How coaching becomes high-earning when you're trained to transform rather than winging it.   The exact way brave coaches raise rates and make bold offers, even with a flutter in their chest.   Why rebounding in hours (not weeks) keeps your income flowing and your confidence high.   How boundaries show up in your pricing and why discounting to feel safe blocks Overflow.   The difference between initiating from alignment versus urgency and how this shapes million-dollar decisions.   Potent coaching questions to will help you lead, price with power, and shift your income now.    ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to check out the Courageous Coaching Certification,  click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/109
Your pricing isn't just a number. It's a declaration of your identity and your authority.    Every time your chest tightens, your voice wavers, or your brain second-guesses your number mid-conversation, you're feeling the emotional wiring behind your rates. That nervous-system signal isn't a flaw - it's your power showing up, IF you know how to use it.   In this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast, I'm diving into the emotional side of pricing, because as women entrepreneurs, our emotions don't just show up. They lead. And the moment you stop resisting them and start leading them into a fully resourced direction, your pricing becomes unshakable.   Tune in to learn the four-step coaching process that will help you reset how you feel about your pricing—so you stop shrinking your number to feel safe, and start naming it with clarity, calm, and conviction.   I'll break down the most common emotional traps women fall into, the beliefs that shift how your body feels when you quote your price, and the coaching questions that help you price from power, not compromise.   In this episode, I talk about:   Why pricing triggers deep emotional patterns around identity, belonging, and safety.   How to name your current pricing emotion and consciously choose a new one that serves you.   The four-step process to reset how your pricing feels in your body.   Why emotional leadership is the next level of your pricing power.   How women unconsciously collapse their pricing in subtle but costly ways.   Key beliefs that anchor your rates in Overflow, not overthinking.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to grab Kendall's free pricing guide, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/108
Raising your prices is one thing. Keeping the profit is another.    Many coaches celebrate their price increase only to watch that extra money disappear, leaving them with the same bank balance they started with. True financial leadership isn't only about charging more. It's learning to hold more without the urge to immediately spend it.   In this episode of The Money Coach School Podcast, I'm walking you through the three most common ways women let that newfound profit slip through their fingers. Then we'll cover the three strategic moves that train your nervous system to keep money confidently. This is about stepping fully into the woman whose pricing, profits, and power all match the level of leadership you're developing within yourself, and how to keep the money your new pricing is bringing in.   In this episode, I talk about:   The 3 most common way women unconsciously collapse the gain of a price raise.   Why inflating your lifestyle, outsourcing your authority, or diluting new income with new expenses drains your Overflow.   How letting money sit untouched for 7-10 days rewires your relationship with wealth.   Why overflow happens when you decide holding money is your new standard.   How to use the power of "This money means..." statements to anchor new income into your current identity.   3 Overflow-aligned moves to hold profit with clarity, calm, and power—so your rates actually create a richer reality.   ~~   For full show notes, transcript, and to watch the free workshop, Overflow, click here: www.themoneycoachschoolpodcast.com/107
