Episode 15: Doing Things Differently — Pay What You Can [Featuring Tara Holmquist]
21 Feb 2022
I'm sure most of you hear the phrases "charge your worth and scarcity mindset" all the time.Though I believe in getting paid for the hard work that we do, not all business models are the same.I talk with Tara Holmquist, a clinical psychologist in Wisconsin about her "pay what you can model" in private practice.Tara is an attachment-focused psychologist, meaning that everything is about the relationship and trusting the client's insight.Tara may be doing things differently than a lot of business owners and we discuss why this feels so unbelievably important for her.
