			<description><![CDATA[<p>Most business owners think pricing is about covering costs or staying competitive. In reality, it’s how you capture the value of everything you’ve built. In this episode, we explore why pricing is your harvest, the moment you reap the rewards of your effort, and how fear-based pricing can leave value rotting in the field.
