Description

In this solo episode of She Who Paints, host and artist Michelle Schultz shares her most powerful tips for negotiating your worth as a creative.

Whether you’re pricing your art, pitching a project, or navigating tricky money conversations, Michelle walks you through mindset shifts and practical strategies that help you stand confidently in your value—without burning out your nervous system in the process.

She covers:
– Why you should always start high and leave room to negotiate
– How to meet in the middle without underselling your work
– The importance of keeping a “good reviews” folder for those confidence dips
– How to increase your income streams for more freedom and flow
– Ways to stay grounded by negotiating from a place of safety and regulation, not fear

This episode is part pep talk, part business school for sensitives—and a reminder that asking for more is not only okay, it’s powerful.
