1. What comes up when you imagine charging 3× your current rate?

I’d feel bad—people might think I’m greedy. I’d over-deliver just to prove it’s worth it. That’s for people with way bigger platforms. I’d probably lose people who can’t afford me. I’d rather stay affordable to help more people.

2. How do you typically respond to being seen or praised publicly?

I downplay it or shift the focus off me. It makes me uncomfortable—I’d rather hide. I act confident but feel like a fraud inside. I instantly think, “How can I serve more now?” I’m afraid it’ll create jealousy or tension.

3. Which sentence feels most true for you?

I don’t want to outgrow people I love. I hate feeling like I’m selling myself. I’ve always been the helper, not the star. I want to speak up—but I freeze or ramble. I was taught not to draw too much attention.

4. When you don’t hit your income goal, what do you assume?

I didn’t do enough. Maybe I aimed too high. I’m probably not cut out for this. I should’ve posted more or said it better. It’s probably a sign to slow down and not get ahead of myself.

5. In sales conversations, what’s your biggest tension?

Fear of sounding pushy. Downplaying the offer if I sense hesitation. Talking too much or over-explaining. Avoiding the call-to-action altogether. I underprice so I don’t feel guilty.

6. What’s your relationship with visibility on video?

I freeze or over-prepare—it has to be perfect. I record, then never post. My message isn’t clear or polished enough. I worry it’ll come off like bragging. I’m nervous how people from my past will react.

7. How would your family or community describe “success”?

Staying grounded and not being flashy. Serving others no matter the cost. Stability, not visibility. Hard work and long hours. Staying quiet, humble, and private.

8. What do you secretly fear success might cost you?

Friendships or intimacy. My peace or creative energy. Respect from my roots. My sense of authenticity. My ability to stay small and safe.
