About This Episode & Highlights:
In this episode of Good Girls Get Rich, Karen Yankovich challenges ambitious women to rethink money, visibility, and influence. She explains why most women hesitate to claim power, and how raising your rates is not just a pricing decision—it’s a power decision.
You’ll learn:

- Why culture and nervous system regulation affect your visibility and success
If you’re ready to take your business and your wealth to the next level, this episode will give you practical strategies and courage to claim your authority.
Why Money is Power
Money gives choice, freedom, and influence. Women are subtly encouraged to shrink, but now is the moment to expand. More money isn’t just income—it’s responsibility, authority, and legacy.
Nervous System Regulation & Cultural Conditioning
Feeling stuck? You’re not stuck—you’re regulated. Your nervous system protects you from power that feels unsafe. This is why women procrastinate or avoid bold moves. Recognize the pattern, then step into growth.
LinkedIn as a Power Platform
Think beyond visibility. Your LinkedIn profile is a power statement, showing authority and attracting decision-makers. Clear, bold positioning prevents underpricing and sets you apart.
The Power Rate System
- Clean Up Your Positioning – Be specific about who you help and the results you deliver
- Decide Your Minimum Standard – Determine the lowest rate you’ll accept and honor it
- Set Up Systems to Receive – LinkedIn, content, and conversations that support your new rate
Claim Your Power
Raising rates, simplifying messaging, and creating high-value offers are ways to claim more without apology. Programs like the Visibility Salon help women step fully into authority and earn more.
Stop playing small. Step into your power. Raise your rates. Use LinkedIn to influence, attract high-paying clients, and build your wealth.
Ready for more visibility, more confidence, and more opportunities?

Episode Transcript: Stop Playing Small: How to Step Into Power and Raise Your Rates
0:10 – Opening & The Power of Money
Karen: Hello, hello, and welcome to the Good Girls Get Rich podcast! I’m your host, Karen Yankovich. You know what? I don’t think we talk enough about the fact that money is power. Not the cold, corporate kind—but the human kind. More money gives us more choice, freedom, and the ability to decide what we want our next chapter to look like.
Right now, in a chaotic world, women are subtly encouraged to shrink—to play smaller, be softer, and stay quiet. But this isn’t the moment to shrink. It’s the moment to get louder, make more money, and step into your power.
Many women think their struggles are about marketing or visibility—but maybe it’s really about how available they are for power. More money means more choice, influence, and visibility. And that’s how we change the world. Women with money are exactly what this world needs.
4:55 – Nervous System Regulation & Cultural Conditioning
Karen: You’re not stuck—you’re regulated. Your nervous system is protecting you because more power comes with more visibility, opinions, and expectations. This is why women procrastinate, take extra courses, or tweak their LinkedIn endlessly instead of acting.
This isn’t personal—it’s cultural. Women haven’t historically been encouraged to hold power, accumulate wealth, or claim space confidently. And when power doesn’t feel safe, we unconsciously avoid it.
Even highly successful women minimize their results or soften their messages. But avoiding power keeps us small—and that’s what we’re going to change.
8:00 – LinkedIn as a Power Platform
Karen: Let’s talk LinkedIn differently today—not just a visibility platform, but a power platform. Here, you can demonstrate authority, attract decision-makers, and create opportunities.
Softening your language or hiding results? You’re opting out of your power. For example:
- “I help women with their business” → safe, but weak
- “I help establish women entrepreneurs position themselves as industry authorities and get paid like it” → powerful, clear, and authority-driven
Your LinkedIn profile isn’t a bio—it’s a power statement.
9:53 – The Power Rate System: Raise Your Rates
Karen: Raising your rates isn’t just pricing—it’s power. Here’s my three-part Power Rate System:
- Clean Up Your Positioning – Clarity equals power. Be specific about who you help and the results you deliver. Clear positioning prevents underpricing.
- Decide Your Minimum Standard – Power and wealth come from decisions, not hope. Determine the minimum you’re willing to be paid and notice your bodily reaction—that’s your growth edge.
- Set Up Systems to Receive – Power is sustained by systems. LinkedIn, authoritative content, confident conversations—these systems make sure you don’t shrink back.
I’ve personally seen how committing to high-value work and the right systems can turn a $25k engagement into $250k value. It’s possible for you too—but you need clarity, courage, and structure.
14:52 – Claiming Power & Visibility Salon
Karen: The world encourages women to get smaller—but this is not the moment to disconnect from your power. Whether that’s raising your rates, simplifying your message, or creating a high-value offer, you can claim more without apology.
If you’re ready to stop playing small and start using LinkedIn and PR for real authority, influence, and income, join us in the Visibility Salon. Here, we don’t just tweak profiles—we help you step into the version of you who can hold the level of success you want but haven’t had yet.
I’ll see you back next week with another episode of Good Girls Get Rich!
