🎙️ Truth Serum: Revenue & Reality: Reset How You Get Paid (Day 6)

A 7-Part Mid-Year Reset Challenge

Welcome back — we’re almost at the finish line. It’s Day 6 of the Mid-Year Reset, and today we’re digging into something most people avoid until they’re deep in burnout and resentment:

👉🏾 Your revenue strategy.

Let’s be honest for a second — and I mean brutally honest.

💭 Here’s the hard question:

Is the way you’re making money aligned with the life you’re actually living?

Or are you stuck in an outdated pricing model, working inside offers that don’t fit anymore, serving clients who drain you, while calling it "the grind"?

Because I’ve been there — making money while mentally unraveling.

And let me tell you… money stress hits different when you’re trying to protect your peace at the same time.

Here’s what I know for sure:

“Revenue is not just about money — it’s about peace.”

It’s about how you feel when the invoice is paid.

It’s about whether the work energizes you or empties you.

It’s about whether your income respects your value, time, and capacity — or constantly threatens them.

And if what you're doing is paying everyone but you — emotionally, energetically, or financially — it’s time to change the strategy.

🔧 Today is your revenue reset.

It’s time to:

  • Revamp your offers to reflect where you are now
  • Raise your rates if they no longer match your energy
  • Retire those packages that no longer serve the version of you who’s doing the healing and the hustling
  • And most importantly…
  • Make space for aligned clients — the ones who value your work and your boundaries

Because let’s be real:

Every dollar isn’t worth the emotional debt.

🧠 Your Challenge Today:

  1. Review your income streams.
  2. Ask: Do these reflect my current energy, value, and goals?
  3. Make three lists:
  • What stays?
  • What goes?
  • What evolves?

🔄 Why This Matters for Your Mental Health:

  • When your money flows with your energy, you stop resenting your work
  • When your prices reflect your boundaries, your nervous system relaxes
  • When you stop undercharging, you stop overextending

Revenue should be a tool — not a trigger.

If your business model is making you anxious, exhausted, or bitter — it’s not a business. It’s a trap.

And guess what?

You have permission to exit the trap and create a model that’s nourishing, sustainable, and respectful of your whole self.
