Episode 6 - Why Teachers Don’t Start Selling on TPT (And How to Finally Take the First Step) If you’ve ever said, “I want to start a TPT store, but…” - this episode is for you. Maybe you’ve told yourself: “I don’t have time.” “I’m not a business person.” “I don’t know what to sell.” “I’ll do it this summer… or when the kids are older…” But here’s the truth: those aren’t the real reasons. In this episode, I’m talking about the actual thing that’s holding so many teachers back from selling their resources online - and why understanding this one mindset shift can finally unlock the freedom you’ve been craving. I’m also sharing my own story about struggling with money mindset, pricing my first $3 product, and how I had to completely rewrite what I believed about my own worth. Plus, you’ll hear a story a college professor once told me that perfectly explains why something valuable - like a free coaching call - often gets overlooked. This leads into something I’m offering just for a few teachers who are truly ready to take action.
