Are you charging enough to sustain yourself and your practice?

In this episode of Feelings and Finances, Linzy opens up about one of the biggest mistakes she made when starting her private practice: setting an unsustainably low fee. Sharing her personal journey, Linzy explains how the pressure to transition quickly out of agency work and advice to “keep fees low” led her to set a rate that couldn’t support her financially.

Through honest reflections and real-world math, Linzy highlights the long-term consequences of undervaluing your work. She offers insights on the financial and emotional impact of setting fees too low and shares how raising her rates ultimately enabled her to build a sustainable practice.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your fees truly support your needs now and into the future, this episode is for you. Linzy provides a practical framework to help you evaluate your rates and align them with the life you want to build.
