Description

Still selling digital files? It's costing you more than just income—it's costing your clients the heirlooms they deserve. In this episode, Sarah reveals why the digital-only model is broken, how it sets you up to lose against AI, and what to do instead if you want a business that's profitable, sustainable, and deeply fulfilling.

• Why the digital-only model leads to burnout and low profit
• The mindset and strategy shift that leads to multi-thousand-dollar orders
• How to stop feeling like a "charity" and start running a real business

This isn't just about pricing—it's about purpose. Let this episode give you the permission (and the plan) to change everything.
