Words That Hurt Your Pricing

I’ve been passionately working on some new programs for wellness practitioners (and those who want to be) such as Reiki practitioners, massage therapists, bodyworkers and yoga teachers to help them really hone in on their gifts and specialties as a practitioner and then design (or redesign) the business aspects of their practice to be in alignment with their authentic selves, values and goals.

The ladies in the Clearing your Path: Finding your Inner Roadmap to Success mastermind that we’ve been holding at the Hawthorne Hotel this summer has allowed me to hone these new offerings to really meet the needs of current (and aspiring) practitioners who want to be of service from their hearts and souls in an authentic, yet financially abundant way.

We’ve uncovered some very deep insights into how to make decisions from your Core authentic self and be in business from a heart and soul centered place. In addition, we’ve experienced the incredible power of shared creativity to break through limiting beliefs and habits via the collaborative model of the mastermind.

One of the most powerful aspects we’re exploring and shifting is the prevalent limiting belief about wellness practitioners from all modalities – that being of service to others in a beautiful, spirit centered way is only possible if you sacrifice your financial wellbeing or rely on someone else or a “real job” to take care of your financial responsibilities. I don’t think this belief actually serves anyone, so I’m working with my clients and my mentor to create a new model of working from your authentic self that allows you to be of service to others AND to yourself.

According to Lynne Twist, author of The Soul of Money: Reclaiming the Wealth of our Inner Resources, this perspective of scarcity and that only certain types of work are worthy of creating wealth is part of the mythology of money that we uphold in our modern culture. Ms. Twist shares her years of experience as a fundraiser with The Hunger Project and her work with some of the worlds most resource poor and resource rich people in the world. She discovered that spiritual wealth is totally unrelated to how much money someone has, and that reclaiming the spiritual connection to money as a resource to invest in our dreams and values is the path to true abundance. If you haven’t read this book yet, I highly recommend that you do.

This is amazing and exciting stuff, and I’m looking forward to sharing more with you in the near future!

Words That Hurt Your Pricing19356Words That Hurt Your PricingI hear it all the timeI want to charge more for my services. When I ask them what is stopping them, I usually get a look of panic and hear words that are filled with fear and doubt. Hearing theirmoney words is an important first step when I work with a client. Why? Because, it tells me a great deal about their money habits and beliefs.

For example, I recently spoke with a woman who was interested in joining my mastermind program. She was letting fear and cost stand in the way of her stepping up to the plate. Instead of investing in the program, she decided it was better to play it safe and small. She said things like,I can’t afford it andI don’t have the money and evenI don’t know if it will be of benefit to me. These are words that are rooted in fear and lack and will have a direct impact on your ability to raise your own fees and up your prices.

So what kinds of words will let you stand in your power around money? Talking about money in ways that are rooted in abundance and power like,I value myself enough to spend money on this program that will greatly benefit my business orI would love to spend that kind of money on (fill in the blank) or evenThings that cost more have a higher value. Do you feel the difference in these statements?

When you use words that are powerful you automatically shift your belief about YOU and what’s possible in your business and life. You’re creating a shift deep within yourself that values quality, which recognizes that good things DO cost more and that they are worth it.

Next time you hear yourself using language that is rooted in lack I want you to immediately shift to those powerful words that can help you make the shift from lack to abundance.
