When I first raised my rates, I felt sick. 🥴 nooo like literally unwell.I hit post on my new packages and then… waited for brides to tell me I was too expensive. Spoiler: no one did. They just kept booking. But what I noticed? I was the bottleneck. Every time I ignored my numbers, I’d panic and lower my price in my head before the bride ever said a word. CEO Mondays fixed that for me. Because instead of stressing a rate increase: - I had data for months telling me I was booking - Checked the evidence that I had demand to support it - Ask: am I on track or am I undercharging myself out of fear? It feels a lot different to confidently raise your rates vs second guessing and seeding doubt before you ever hear back from a bride. The to-do’s: 📓 Journal Prompts:→ What felt scary about money this week?→ What booking or package made me feel PROUD?→ What’s one money win I can celebrate?→ What’s one fear thought I can let go of?→ What’s my booking goal for this month? 💻 Business: - Review current bookings vs your annual goal - Look at what bridal party size brides are booking the most - Sell my services on stories this week - Schedule one piece of content that highlights VALUE, not price 📲 Personal: - Double check auto pay bills (are they up to date?) - Clean out your work bag, re-stock your kit - Meal prep or grab groceries for the week - Knock out one financial task you’ve been avoiding (budget update, cancel unused subscription, etc.) Your homework this week → post one story or reel that shares your clients story, go beyond just your *talent*. My homework? I’ve been avoiding canceling a random $9.99/month app I never use. I finally canceled it today 🙌 and it reminded me how small money leaks add up just like undercharging can 👀.
