The Self-Negotiation Check-In

Stop Negotiating Against Yourself: Raise Your Prices, Reclaim Your Time, & Build a Business That Loves You Back


You know you want something different.

Maybe you want to raise your prices. Ask for more. Set a boundary. Say no. Take the opportunity. Walk away. Change your offer. Protect your time.

But somewhere between “I want this” and “I’m going to do something about it,” the negotiation starts happening inside your own head.

The Self-Negotiation Check-In is a simple 15-minute tool to help you stop negotiating against yourself and start making decisions from self-trust, clarity, and what you actually want.

Inside, you'll work through:

  • What do I actually want?

  • What am I afraid will happen if I ask for what I want?

  • What would I choose if I trusted myself to handle any outcome?

  • A Sustainability, Stability + Possibility check to help you think about what your business money actually needs to make possible to help determine your pricing and rates, not just what you think you should be charging

  • A simple way to identify what's driving your decision—and make one honest 1% move forward

  • Bonus: An objection handling practice to stay prepared and ready if and when you get a “no” in future negotiations

This check-in is helpful in preventing business decisions and advocacy conversations from being rooted in scarcity, fear, guilt, what everyone else in your industry is doing, or an arbitrary number someone on social media told you to charge.

The Check-In invites you to pause, be honest with yourself, look at your actual business realities, and make a values-aligned decision you can stand behind.

So if there's a decision you've been circling, shrinking around, or overthinking, move through it with The Self-Negotiation Check-In.

Take at least 15 minutes, get honest with yourself, and see what becomes possible when you stop asking, “What's the right thing to do?” and start answering: “What happens when I stop negotiating against myself and start negotiating for the life and business I actually want?"
