But after the emails, the towel folding, the admin, the prep, the charting, and the quiet unpaid hours that slip through the cracks—you’re barely clearing minimum wage.In this episode, I tell the story of the moment I finally saw it. Not just the numbers, but the cost. The energetic invoice that had been silently collecting interest for years.Because here’s the truth: most practitioners aren’t undercharging. They’re overgiving. And they’re doing it inside a system that was never designed to support them.If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right and still wondering why you're so drained, this one’s for you.No fluff. Just a quiet nudge to start tracking what your energy is funding—and to stop footing the bill alone.Subscribe to The Conscious Practitioner and start building a business that doesn’t burn you out.
