Why Do I Feel Uncomfortable Charging for My Services?
Why Do I Feel Uncomfortable Charging for My Services? (Let’s Unpack That Money Guilt, Boo Thang)
You KNOW you’re good at what you do.
You’ve helped friends, family, and random Instagram strangers get real results.
And yet… when it’s time to name your price? Your throat tightens. Your fingers shake. Your voice gets small.
If charging for your services feels uncomfortable — you’re not alone. You’re also not “bad at business.” You’ve just got money conditioning to unlearn.
Let’s unpack it.

1. You Were Taught That Helping Should Be Free.
Women are raised to be nurturers — not negotiators.
According to a 2022 report from Ellevest, 63% of women feel uncomfortable asking for more money, even when it’s deserved.
You’ve probably been praised your whole life for being “selfless.”
So when you ask to be paid for your magic, your brain says: “Wait — aren’t we supposed to give this away?”
“You’re not greedy. You’re reclaiming what should’ve always been valued.”
2. You Think Your Story Disqualifies You From Charging More.
Inside Messy to Millions, one woman shared that because she’d struggled financially in the past, she felt like she couldn’t charge premium prices.
But your past struggle isn’t a disqualifier. It’s the reason someone will trust you.
You’ve walked through it. You’ve done the work.
Now your experience becomes your authority.
3. You Equate Worth With Hustle.
If it’s easy for you, you feel guilty charging.
Sound familiar?
But ease is a sign of mastery, not something to apologize for.
Your zone of genius deserves to be compensated — even if it’s second nature to you.
“Just because it comes easy to you doesn’t mean it came free. You PAID for that skill with time, energy, tears, and tenacity.”
4. You’ve Seen Selling Done the Wrong Way.
You’re scared of becoming that person — the pushy one. The one who’s always pitching.
But here’s the truth:
Selling isn’t pushy. Selling is service — when your message is aligned and your heart is clean.
You’re not here to manipulate. You’re here to move people.
5. You Don’t Have a Clear Offer — So You Default to Discounting.
A big reason women undercharge is because their offer lacks structure. It’s vague. Undefined.
When we help women inside Messy to Millions build out their signature frameworks and offers, the confidence immediately levels up — because clarity breeds confidence.
