From seeing 24 clients a week on Medi-Cal to working 12-14 hours at $250 per session — Sara Champie's story is the revolution therapists need to hear.
As a primary breadwinner, Sara used to believe she had to grind herself to dust to prove she cared. But when resentment, exhaustion, and rage began to spill into her marriage and motherhood, she realized: staying small wasn't noble — it was self-betrayal.
Through her LIMB journey, Sara broke free from the "helper martyr" trap, raised her fees, and reclaimed her family's future.
In this episode, Sara shares:
-
How she traded burnout for balance and doubled her income
-
The real cost of low fees on her marriage and her children
-
What she discovered about justice and privilege after raising her rates
-
How her somatic, trauma-focused work deepened once she stopped hustling
-
The breakthrough that helped her set a $350 goal and mean it
