37. Accepting That It’s Okay To Charge People to Help Them Through Pain w/ Emily Thiroux Threatt

On this live coaching Real Talk segment I help Emily Thiroux Threatt work through the narratives of guilt she had about charging people who are in grief. As a heart centered entrepreneur she was very comfortable with giving, that when it came to receiving her stories of “people in grief are in pain and not in a place to pay” kept her from realizing that her gift is really lessening the time and intensity individuals stay in their pain.

On this episode we cover:

• Emily’s story of multiple losses that catalyzed her intimate knowledge of grief and the path through it
  
• Emily’s ultimate message that we can grieve and still be happy
  
• How Emily turned her pain and message into a published book
  
• How Emily’s focus on providing comfort, support and love was a partial block to realizing the value she was providing for the world
  
• The realization that she had a story about feeling guilty for charging people in grief as they were suffering and how I helped her transcend it on the call
  
• Her live mindset shift that her gift is providing people in grief a way to collapse the time of being in pain and decrease the intensity of the pain AND that it’s a service she can charge for
