I never thought I would be the person to say this.

But I have a lot to learn when it comes to price and salary negotiation.
Anytime someone asks me for my rates as an editor,
I unconsciously put a low price so I won't be seen as "too expensive".

I thought I was confident

Female editors in the house.
How do you fix your rates and assert your value?

Like I know I'm a good editor and past work can testify to that.
Been editing unpaid for close to three years.

Now I decided to be professional, I lack confidence in negotiating.

Also, any woman in business.
How do you build confidence when fixing your price?

The problem is I get flustered and there's a tiny voice telling me that I shouldn't set too high otherwise I won't get the job or the contract.
