Let’s talk about it. You show up with excellence. You bring the skills, the results, the receipts. But the moment you drop your price, here come the negotiations. Suddenly, everybody’s on a budget. Everybody’s got a cousin who “can do it cheaper.” But guess what? Cheaper doesn’t come with your mind. Your experience. Your value.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the hard truth: people will applaud your greatness until it’s time to compensate it. We’re talking about the disrespect that shows up in discounts, and how to hold the line on your worth—especially in an economy that’s out here testing everybody’s confidence.

This one’s for the entrepreneur who’s tired of the back-and-forth. For the consultant who's been told, “You’re exactly what we need… but can you do it for half?” Nah. We’re not shrinking to make other people comfortable. Not this season.

Press play and get reminded why your price is your price—for a reason.

You started the business. You’re grinding. You’ve got the vision, the hustle, the late nights, the receipts. But now you’re wondering… why ain’t my friends reposting? Why hasn’t my cousin bought a t-shirt?

In this episode of Both Sides of the Check, we dive deep into the messy, honest, and eye-opening conversation about friends, family, and that unspoken expectation of support when you launch your dream.

Do they owe it to you? Should you have to ask? And what if their silence is louder than any “congrats” could ever be?

This ain’t just a talk — it’s a wake-up call. We’re pulling back the curtain on entitlement, accountability, and what real support actually looks like.

Because love is one thing. Business is another. And if you’re not ready to hear both sides, you’re not ready to grow.

Let’s go there.

In this episode, Ms Cat & LiShon unpack the weight, the pride, and the pressure behind the label “Black-owned.” What started as a badge of honor—something to uplift and represent—can sometimes feel like a box that limits how far we’re “allowed” to grow.

Are we building for culture, for currency, or both?
And does that label help us… or hold us back?

This is a real, layered convo about identity, ownership, audience, and impact. At the end of the day, the business is Black-owned—but is that the only story we get to tell?

👊 Tap in and bring your whole mind to this one. It’s not just a podcast—it’s a mirror.
