In the final episode of ThrivTalk's first season, host Jenn Ocken and producer Samantha Morgan celebrate the completion of an enriching journey. They begin by discussing how referrals play a crucial role in their businesses and how it's not just about monetary transactions but a form of appreciation and trust from satisfied clients. While some photographers use referral fees or discounts, Jenn highlights the importance of building genuine relationships with clients to encourage organic referrals.

The conversation then delves into the significance of valuing oneself and pricing services with confidence. They emphasize that it's essential to cultivate a positive mindset, free from over-explanation or self-doubt, and instead focus on the value provided to clients.
