Equitable Economics
Hello,
My thoughts on money and payment.
I’ve struggled with how much to charge in the past, not valuing myself and what I offer, and feeling “off” about charging each person, regardless of circumstance, the same fee. I don’t believe the story that if my services are more expensive it means I must be the “best” at what I do. Money is often not the most accurate marker of the true cost or value of resources.
My worth isn’t a dollar sign. Yours isn’t either. Those are traps that create more separation.
I am working on creating a power-with world.
Which means questioning the norms and creating new systems.
Thinking outside the box.
In general life-coaching fees with professionals usually vary between $75.00-200.00 a session.
My coaching fees are an attempt, however small, to acknowledge that we live in a culture that doesn’t have a sense of equity when it comes to economics. There is a big gap between the haves and have not’s as far as wealth goes.
In service to these thoughts. I’ve written something to give you guidance. To help you find your economic place.
The below “cups” are a framework.
You may answer yes to something in all three categories. Go with the one that you have the most in common with. You may fall in between the cracks. Your life may be more complicated than this. Do your best. There is no right or wrong. No judge or jury. I will graciously accept what you pay. Lean in. Listen to the facts and your heart.
These prices are for Individual Coaching Sessions. program pricing is below:
