• Ep. 40. Is Your Offer Too High? 27.05.2026 21min

  Is Your Offer Too High? Pricing, Confidence, and Knowing Your Worth | Ep. 40If you freeze every time someone questions your pricing, this episode is for you. Sarah dives into one of the biggest mindset struggles new coaches and business owners face: charging confidently for the value they provide. From underpricing out of fear to learning how to hold your ground when people push back, this conversation is packed with practical mindset shifts and business strategy.WHAT YOU'LL LEARNWhy underpricing yourself actually leads to burnout and resentmentThe real reason new coaches panic when someone questions their ratesHow confidence in your pricing changes the energy of every sales conversationThe “$15 million beach house” analogy that will completely shift how you think about your offersHow to reverse engineer your pricing based on your income goals and client capacityWhy charging significantly less than others in your niche can actually hurt trust instead of helping itEPISODE SUMMARYSarah shares exciting updates about the future of the podcast, including the transition into video content and her continued focus on business and mindset conversations for entrepreneurs and coaches. She reflects on how the show has evolved over time and why leaning into this next phase feels aligned with where both she and the audience are headed.The core of this episode centers around pricing confidence and why so many new coaches struggle to confidently state what they charge. Sarah explains that when people question your pricing, it does not automatically mean your offer is overpriced. More often, it simply means that particular person is not your ideal client or is not in the right season to invest.Using the analogy of a $15 million beachfront home, Sarah explains how ridiculous it would feel to walk into an open house and ask to pay a tiny fraction of the asking price. Yet many coaches do the equivalent when they immediately slash their rates after one objection. Your pricing is not supposed to adjust based on someone else's budget.Sarah also breaks down why pricing too low becomes unsustainable. When you undercharge, you eventually become exhausted, resentful, and unable to grow your business long term. Instead, she encourages listeners to look realistically at their financial goals, determine how many clients they can actually serve, and reverse engineer pricing from there.The episode wraps with practical advice on researching your market, understanding the range other professionals charge, and avoiding the trap of pricing yourself dramatically lower just to become the “cheap option.” The goal is not to copy others, but to position yourself appropriately while building a sustainable business that actually supports your life.TIMESTAMPS00:00 — Introduction and podcast updates02:00 — Why Sarah is adding video to the podcast04:00 — The pricing confidence problem new coaches face05:00 — The $15 million beach house analogy06:30 — Why underpricing leads to burnout and resentment07:30 — Sarah’s thoughts on investing in business support10:30 — Why different offers require different pricing models11:30 — The “fancy restaurant” analogy for coaching prices13:00 — Handling pushback and objections confidently15:00 — Reverse engineering your income and pricing goals17:00 — Researching competitors and understanding market pricing18:30 — Final encouragement to charge your worthRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Ep. 39. Failure vs. Defeat 20.05.2026 23min

  Failure vs. Defeat: The Mindset Shift That Keeps You Moving Forward | Ep. 39Most people think failure and defeat mean the same thing. They don't. If you've ever launched something that flopped, set a goal you abandoned, or stopped talking about a dream because it didn't pan out fast enough, you may have crossed from failure into defeat without realizing it. This episode breaks down exactly how that switch happens and how to stop it.WHAT YOU'LL LEARNHow to tell the difference between failure as an event and defeat as a decisionThe exact 6 signs you've slipped from failing into defeat (and most people miss all of them)Why your brain is neurologically wired to turn failure into identity and how to interrupt that pattern before it settles inHow to process failure with intention instead of ruminating or bypassing it entirelyWhy waiting until you feel "ready" to try again is actually just defeat dressed up as cautionEPISODE SUMMARYFailure is something that happened. Defeat is something you decide. That one distinction changes everything about how you respond to setbacks in your business and your life. Sarah unpacks why the two are so easy to confuse and what it actually costs you when you do.What is the difference between failure and defeat? Failure has a date, a context, and a lesson. Defeat is a state of mind. It is what happens when you take one outcome and decide it means you should stop. Sarah uses the GPS analogy: a wrong turn is failure. Pulling over, turning off the car, and deciding you were never meant to reach the destination is defeat. Same journey, same wrong turn, completely different response.Why do people slip into defeat after a setback? Your brain's negativity bias encodes painful experiences more deeply as a survival mechanism. But the bigger culprit is learned helplessness: after enough unprocessed failure, your nervous system concludes that effort does not lead to results and shuts down trying altogether. Sarah explains how those neural pathways can be rewired and why awareness is always the first move.How do you bounce back from failure without giving up on your goals? Sarah walks through three mistakes people make after failure: making it mean something about their identity, skipping processing and jumping straight to moving on, and waiting until they feel ready before trying again. The fix is processing with intention, sitting with the failure long enough to extract the lesson, then moving forward. Confidence does not come before the attempt. It builds in the going.TIMESTAMPS00:00 — Introduction02:15 — Failure is an event, defeat is a decision06:30 — The neuroscience: negativity bias and learned helplessness12:00 — 6 signs you have crossed from failure into defeat22:45 — How defeat gets installed: 3 mistakes to avoid after a setback34:00 — Sarah's personal examples from building her business37:30 — Your action step for this weekRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Ep. 37. Quantum Leaps in Personal Transformation 06.05.2026 31min

• Ep. 36. Imposter Syndrome Safety Stories & Actionable Steps 29.04.2026 22min

  Imposter syndrome isn’t just a mindset issue—it’s a pattern of “safety stories” your brain tells to keep you comfortable, even if it means staying stuck.

  What happens when you finally bring an online community into real life?

• Ep. 34. Lead with Client Outcomes, Not Your Credentials 15.04.2026 23min

  In this episode of Let’s Chat, Sarah continues diving into the business side of growth and challenges a belief that many professionals and entrepreneurs hold onto:“My credentials are what will get me clients.” But what if that’s actually the thing holding you back?Sarah breaks down why leading with your certifications, degrees, and experience might not only be ineffective—but could actually be turning potential clients away. Drawing from her own journey, she shares how relying on credentials often comes from a place of self-protection rather than true connection.This episode explores the powerful shift from talking about yourself to focusing on your client’s transformation. Sarah explains why people don’t buy based on your resume—they buy because they feel seen, understood, and confident that you can solve their specific problem.She walks through how to communicate what you do in a way that resonates, builds trust quickly, and positions you as the clear solution—without sounding like a “walking LinkedIn bio.”If you’ve been struggling to convert conversations into clients or feel like your messaging isn’t landing, this episode will help you simplify your approach and focus on what actually matters.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…Why leading with credentials doesn’t attract clientsThe difference between proving expertise and communicating valueHow talking about yourself can disconnect potential clientsWhy clients care more about outcomes than qualificationsThe importance of showing how you solve a specific problemHow to shift your messaging to focus on client transformationWhy connection and recognition build trust faster than credentialsThe role of specificity in helping clients feel seen and understoodHow two people with the same credentials can have completely different resultsWhy vague messaging leads to confusion and lack of conversionsThe psychology behind why people buy (hint: it’s emotional)How to rewrite your introduction to be client-focusedThe importance of asking better questions instead of listing qualificationsWhy niching down and speaking to one person is more effective than speaking to everyoneHow over-explaining your credentials can be a form of self-protectionThe difference between confidence and overcompensating in your messagingRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Ep. 33. Why You're Not Getting Clients (And What To Do Instead!) 07.04.2026 25min

  In this episode of Let’s Chat, Sarah shifts into the business side of growth and tackles one of the biggest frustrations for new and aspiring entrepreneurs:“Why am I not getting clients?” If you’ve been putting yourself out there, posting content, building offers—and still hearing crickets—this episode breaks down exactly why that’s happening (and what to do differently).Sarah shares one of the most important lessons she learned while building her own business: trying to help everyone actually results in helping no one. Through her own experience of struggling to “niche down,” she explains why clarity around your ideal client isn’t optional—it’s essential.This episode dives deep into what it really means to know your ideal client—not just surface-level demographics, but their thoughts, emotions, fears, desires, and daily struggles. Sarah walks you through how to define the exact problem you solve, how to communicate it clearly, and why vague messaging is one of the biggest reasons clients aren’t converting.She also introduces her “depth framework,” a practical way to understand your audience on a deeper level so your messaging actually resonates—and converts.If you’ve been feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or questioning whether people are even willing to pay for your services, this episode will help you refocus, simplify, and start attracting the right people.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…Why trying to help everyone makes it harder to attract clientsThe real reason people aren’t buying (it’s not what you think)What “niching down” actually means—and why it’s so powerfulHow vague messaging confuses your audience and hurts conversionsThe importance of clearly defining the exact problem you solveHow to describe your ideal client in a specific, relatable wayWhy you should intentionally attract the right people—and repel the wrong onesThe “Italian restaurant vs. diner” analogy for positioning your businessHow to understand your client’s thoughts, emotions, and daily strugglesWhy people buy based on emotion, not just logicHow to uncover your client’s deepest desires and fearsThe importance of identifying objections—and addressing them in your messagingWhat a “client persona” is and how it helps your marketingWhere to find real insights about your audience (Facebook groups, Reddit, conversations)Why aesthetics (logos, websites) matter less than clarity in the beginningHow to simplify your offer and focus on one clear solutionRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Ep. 32. Stacking Your Evidence - Comparison or Confident Action? 31.03.2026 23min

  In this episode of Let’s Chat, Sarah dives into a powerful and often overlooked mindset trap: comparison—and how it can either keep you stuck or push you into confident action.Fresh off a transformative retreat, Sarah reflects on the impact of environment, community, and surrounding yourself with people who expand your thinking. But the real focus of this episode is how comparison shows up in our daily lives—and why it’s not always a bad thing.Sarah breaks down the difference between destructive comparison (the kind that makes you feel behind or not enough) and empowering comparison (the kind that inspires you and shows you what’s possible). She shares how most of us unknowingly use comparison as evidence for why we can’t succeed—rather than flipping it into proof that we can. Through real-life examples and simple mindset shifts, Sarah introduces the concept of “stacking your evidence”—training your brain to recognize your own capability instead of constantly highlighting your gaps.If you’ve ever stopped yourself from posting, starting, or showing up because someone else seemed “ahead,” this episode will help you reframe comparison and start using it as fuel instead of friction.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…Why your environment and the people around you shape your beliefs and actionsThe difference between comparison that holds you back vs. comparison that inspires growthHow social media creates a distorted view of reality—and why it affects your confidenceThe danger of comparing your “chapter one” to someone else’s “chapter twenty”How comparison can lead to inaction, self-doubt, and missed opportunitiesThe concept of “outsourcing your power” and how it keeps you stuckWhat cognitive distortions are and how your brain “warps” reality without you realizing itWhy your brain naturally focuses on negative evidence (and how to interrupt that pattern)The importance of real-life connection vs. digital validationHow to “stack evidence” in your favor by recalling past wins and proof of capabilityWhy belief alone isn’t enough—and how action builds real confidenceThe importance of defining what you want without the influence of comparisonRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Ep. 31: Is it deeper than the money? 24.03.2026 17min

  In this episode of Let’s Chat, Sarah wraps up Money Mindset March with a powerful and honest question:Is it really about the money… or is it something deeper?While many people believe they’re held back by finances, Sarah challenges listeners to look beneath the surface. Because often, the hesitation to invest in yourself—whether in business, growth, or opportunity—isn’t just about money. It’s about what happens after you say yes.Drawing from her own journey of investing in mentors, education, and personal growth (even when it didn’t make logical sense), Sarah explores the deeper fears that can keep people stuck—like the fear of responsibility, fear of failure, and fear of not following through once you have the tools.This episode breaks down how to distinguish between a real financial limitation and an emotional response, how to make smarter investment decisions, and why self-trust is often the real barrier—not money.Through practical frameworks and reflection prompts, Sarah encourages listeners to become more aware of their patterns, take ownership of their growth, and start showing up for themselves—even in small ways.If you’ve ever told yourself “I can’t afford it,” this episode will help you ask a better question—and uncover what’s really holding you back.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…The difference between a true financial limitation vs. an emotional reactionWhy “I can’t afford it” is sometimes about fear, not moneyHow investing in yourself creates responsibility—not just opportunityThe hidden fear of having to follow through after saying yesWhy self-trust plays a major role in personal and professional growthHow to properly evaluate courses, coaches, and programs before investingThe importance of doing your due diligence before spending moneyWhy not all investments are good—and how to spot the differenceThe power of deciding to fully commit before making an investmentHow growth doesn’t always require money—sometimes it requires actionCommon ways people avoid growth by using money as an excuseSimple ways to start investing in yourself without spending anythingHow small actions build confidence and reinforce new beliefsThe importance of awareness when making decisions about growthRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 30: Five Types of Wealth 17.03.2026 23min

  In this episode of Let’s Chat, Sarah continues Money Mindset March by challenging a common belief many of us carry:“Once I make more money, then I’ll finally feel free.”But what if that idea isn’t actually true?Sarah breaks down the powerful difference between being rich and being wealthy—and why chasing income alone often leaves people feeling anxious, burned out, or unfulfilled. Drawing from her own entrepreneurial journey, she shares how making more money didn’t automatically create peace of mind, and why true wealth comes from more than just the number in your bank account. In this episode, Sarah introduces the concept of five types of wealth—financial, time, social, physical, and mental—and explains how all five must work together to create a balanced, fulfilling life. If even one area is neglected, the entire system can feel out of alignment.Through personal stories, reflection questions, and practical action steps, Sarah invites listeners to rethink their definition of success and start building a version of wealth that actually supports the life they want to live.If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly chasing the next milestone, waiting for money to finally make life feel easier, this episode will help you step back and redefine what wealth truly means.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…The difference between being rich (what you earn) and being wealthy (how you live)Why making more money doesn’t automatically create peace, freedom, or happinessThe five types of wealth that contribute to a balanced lifeHow financial wealth supports stability but isn’t the only form of successWhy time wealth—control over your schedule and energy—is one of the most valuable resourcesHow relationships and community influence your overall sense of fulfillmentThe importance of physical health and energy when building a life and careerHow stress and overwork can undermine even the highest levels of financial successWhy mental wealth and purpose play a critical role in long-term fulfillmentReflection prompts to help evaluate which areas of wealth may be out of balance in your lifeSmall, practical actions you can take this week to start improving one area of wealthRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 29: Money Mindset: Rewriting Your Money Story 11.03.2026 26min

  In this episode, Sarah kicks off Money Mindset March with a powerful question:Do you actually have a money problem… or do you have a money story problem?So many people believe they struggle with money because there simply isn’t enough of it. But Sarah challenges that idea and explores how the real issue is often the stories and beliefs we carry about money—many of which were formed early in life without us even realizing it.Sarah shares personal experiences from growing up in a middle-class household where negative messages about wealth were common, and how those early narratives shaped her adult relationship with money. She explains how beliefs about money are often learned through observation, reinforced through emotional experiences, and carried into adulthood as if they were facts.Throughout the episode, Sarah breaks down how to identify your own money stories, where they might have come from, and how those beliefs could be influencing your decisions around work, business, and self-worth.If you’ve ever felt guilt for wanting more money, struggled to advocate for yourself financially, or worried that wealth might change who you are, this episode invites you to question those assumptions and begin rewriting your story.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…How many “money problems” are actually belief and story problemsHow childhood experiences and family narratives shape your relationship with moneyCommon money stories like “money is hard to keep,” “money is selfish,” or “money causes stress”Why guilt and shame around wanting money are often learned—not inherently yoursThe exercise “Money is…” to uncover the beliefs running your financial decisionsHow fear of judgment or rejection can keep you from asking for raises, pricing confidently, or pursuing opportunitiesWhy people often undervalue themselves or self-sabotage when financial success becomes possibleHow money acts as an amplifier of your character rather than something that changes who you areThe importance of creating new evidence to challenge old financial beliefsSmall actions that help break money blocks and build confidence around earning and receiving moreRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 28: What Do You Really Want? Inner Truths 03.03.2026 22min

  In this episode, Sarah asks the question she returns to over and over again—in her own life and inside the MindBody Behavior community:What do you really want?Not what sounds responsible. Not what fits the timeline. Not what looks good on paper. Not what makes you appear like the “good” professional, partner, parent, or friend.What do you actually want?Sarah unpacks the difference between conditional desires (the ones shaped by society, family, praise, and fear of disappointment) and intrinsic desires (the ones that feel alive, expansive, and deeply yours). She explores why so many high-achieving people hit goals and feel relief instead of fulfillment—and how to tell whether you’re moving toward something meaningful or just running away from something uncomfortable.If you’ve been feeling apathetic, stuck, or quietly unfulfilled—even though your life “looks good” from the outside—this episode is your invitation to get radically honest.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…The difference between conditional wants (outside-in) and intrinsic wants (inside-out)Why achieving the “right” goals can still leave you feeling emptyThe body-based cue: does this desire feel expansive or contracted?The question: “If no one ever knew I did this, would I still want it?”How we confuse clarity with certainty—and why certainty isn’t requiredThe permission trap: whose approval are you still waiting for?Why arbitrary timelines (“by this age I should…”) quietly run your lifeMoving toward something vs. running away from something—and how they can look identicalHer own evolution around money, financial freedom, and releasing shameWhy dreaming feels hard when you’ve trained yourself not to want too muchRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 27: Facing Fear: From Paralysis to Purpose 25.02.2026 23min

  In this episode, Sarah dives deep into one of the most misunderstood emotions we experience: fear.So many high-capacity, capable people say, “I’m anxious,” “I’m nervous,” or “I’m scared,” and use that as a reason not to move toward something that deeply matters to them. But what if fear isn’t the stop sign you think it is?Sarah breaks down how fear disguises itself as perfectionism, procrastination, over-preparation, and people-pleasing—and why those behaviors feel productive but are actually keeping you stuck. She introduces a practical framework to help you name fear, locate it in your body, uncover the deeper belief underneath it, and decide whether avoiding it is actually costing you the life you want. This episode is both mindset work and practical strategy. If you’ve been waiting to feel “ready” before you make a move, this conversation is your invitation to stop letting fear make your decisions.In This Episode Sarah Discusses…How fear shows up as perfectionism (“it’s not ready yet”) and why perfect is just fear in disguiseWhy procrastination often isn’t laziness—but fear of doing it badlyThe hidden cost of over-preparing and chasing “one more certification” before startingHow people-pleasing is often rooted in fear of rejection or disapprovalWhy your brain reacts to social rejection the same way it reacts to physical dangerThe deeper questions to ask: “And then what?” to uncover the real fear underneath the surfaceThe difference between saying “I am anxious” and “I am feeling anxious”—and why that language shift mattersHow to tact (label) fear in your body with extreme specificityUsing a cost-benefit analysis to evaluate what avoiding fear is actually costing youWhy the goal isn’t to eliminate fear—but to let it come along for the rideRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 26: Let’s Chat With MBB- Why the Podcast Changed, Taking Breaks, and What’s Coming Next 18.02.2026 13min

  In this episode, Sarah Burby reintroduces the podcast with its new name, Let’s Chat With MBB, explaining the shift away from focusing only on behavior analysis and creating a space for conversations at the intersection of mind, body, and behavior—plus health, entrepreneurship, mindset, and community. She shares why she took a break due to structural changes in her business and choosing to pause the pressure of being “consistent,” especially while preparing for the first-ever Behavior and Body conference. Sarah also previews upcoming topics (burnout vs. bored-out, imposter syndrome, confidence, self-limiting beliefs, ACT, and RFT), and explains why she redesigned her program into Permission for More and lowered it to $97/month to make it more accessible while emphasizing mindset work alongside business coaching.In This Episode Sarah Discusses… Why she changed the podcast name from A BA Redefined to Let’s Chat with MBB—and why she no longer wants to apologize for talking about more than behavior analysisThe pressure of consistency in podcasting and why she chose alignment over arbitrary rulesWhat was happening behind the scenes in her business that required a pauseHosting the first Behavior & Body Conference and why focusing her energy there mattered more than weekly uploadsThe difference between burnout and boredom—and why she plans to unpack that moreWhy mindset work is the missing link in entrepreneurship (no matter how good your strategy is)The evolution of her business program into Permission for More and why accessibility matteredHow self-limiting beliefs quietly block success more than lack of informationWhy this podcast will now include conversations on imposter syndrome, confidence, ACT, RFT, health coaching, retreats, and real stories from her communityQuotes from This Episode “You can change your mind. You can do things differently whenever you want.”“I don’t want to apologize for not everything being behavior analytic. Being a BCBA is one part of me, but it’s not the only part of me.”“If I want to skip a week, I’m going to skip a week. I didn’t create this podcast to be in the top 1%. I created it for connection and community.”“I can give you the playbook, the strategies, the exact steps—but if your mindset isn’t right, you will not be successful.”“You can have whatever it is that you want—not what you think you should want, but what you actually desire.”Your Action StepGive yourself permission to pivot.Is there something you’ve been holding onto out of obligation, fear, or identity attachment? A role? A routine?

• Episode 25: Identity Through Small Reps 17.12.2025 19min

  Episode DescriptionIn this episode, Sarah unpacks how your identity isn’t built through resolutions or vision boards. It is built through the mundane, everyday actions you’re taking right now. Inspired by James Clear’s work but reframed through her signature raw lens, she introduces the concept that every action you take is a “rep” building the person you’re becoming. If you’re exhausted trying to become a perfect version of yourself overnight, this episode will help you understand that you’re already building your identity every single day. The only question is for which version of yourself?In This Episode Sarah Discusses…Why she did a second branding shoot this year and how it reflects the identity shift she's making for 2026Reframing James Clear's concept: every action isn't just a vote, it's a rep—like building muscle at the gym, you're building your identityThe shift to identity-based behavior change: instead of "what do I want to achieve?", ask "who do I want to become?" and "what would that person do?"Why your next rep matters more than all your previous ones (you can't erase the past, but you can start building now)What Sarah's ready to let go of: being shy, not a good public speaker, not pretty enough, not smart enough—and the version that hides her true self for fear of judgmentRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 24: Scarcity vs. Abundance: Which Lens Is Running Your Life? 10.12.2025 18min

  "Money doesn't grow on trees." "We have to hold onto what we have." If you grew up hearing phrases like these, you might be filtering every decision through a scarcity lens without even realizing it. In this episode, Sarah breaks down how the beliefs we inherited in childhood become the filter through which we see opportunities, success, and what's possible for us as adults. She gets practical about how to recognize when you're operating from scarcity versus abundance in your career, relationships, and growth - and shares real examples from her own business of what shifts when you stop making decisions from fear.In This Episode Sarah Discusses...How childhood messages like "money doesn't grow on trees" create an adult filter of "not enough" that keeps you stuckThe core difference: scarcity says "there's not enough to go around" while abundance says "there's enough and I can create more" - and why this has nothing to do with how much you actually haveWhat scarcity looks like across six areas (career, collaboration, growth, relationships, time, and worth) and the internal dialogue that reveals when you're operating from fear instead of strategyWhat abundance looks like in those same areas - from "I have to say yes or I'll miss my only chance" to "if this isn't aligned, something better will come"Real examples from Sarah's business: saying no to a $150 client and attracting a $300 client a week later, choosing abundance when her first employee quit, and how constantly asking "how good can this get?" transforms everythingRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 23: What Happens When Someone Reports You to the BACB (And Why I'm Actually Grateful) 03.12.2025 20min

  Sarah gets raw about an experience most BCBAs dread: being reported to the BACB Ethics Department. In this deeply personal episode, she walks through the three-week emotional roller coaster of responding to an anonymous ethics complaint about her supervision program - the immediate panic, the spiral of worst-case scenarios, and ultimately, the perspective shift that made her grateful for the whole experience. This isn't just about what happened; it's about what it means to lead a movement, accept that not everyone will support you, and give yourself permission to show up authentically even when it makes people uncomfortable.In This Episode Sarah Discusses...The moment she got the BACB email and her immediate emotional spiral (spoiler: even with all her coping skills, she was terrified)The anonymous ethics complaint: concerns about supervision for stay-at-home moms, multi-state licensing claims, and unrestricted hoursWhy she wishes the person had reached out directly first instead of going straight to the BACBHow this experience confirmed she's on the right path - "This just means I'm doing everything aligned with my soul"The exhausting energy of women tearing each other down in the field (and why she's creating a different space)RESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?

• Episode 22: Stop Playing Small: Why Your Environment Is Either Growing You or Keeping You Stuck 19.11.2025 26min

  Fresh off a life-changing four-day retreat in Arizona, Sarah gets brutally honest about what happens when you stop comparing yourself to others and start letting their success inspire you instead. This isn't your typical "mindset" episode - it's a raw conversation about glass ceilings we create for ourselves, the scarcity mindset plaguing our field, and why the resistance you're feeling about growth is exactly the sign you need to lean in. If you've been playing small because it feels safer, this episode is your permission slip to want more. In This Episode Sarah Discusses...Why feeling like you don't belong in the room means you're in exactly the right roomThe shift from "I'm not doing enough" comparison to "if they can do it, so can I" inspirationHow giving yourself permission to want more isn't selfish - it's your responsibilityWhy resistance to growth is often a sign you need to do the thing that scares youThe toxic scarcity mindset in ABA: why other BCBAs' success doesn't threaten yoursRESOURCES MENTIONEDLove FREE high quality CEUs?
