One minute you're on top of the world and the next minute the world is rolling back on you. The truth is, we are all selling our way through life. Whether you're trying to get the job, promotion, raise, digits, date, married or if you've been crushed by devastating blows of death, demotion, divorce, termination, or bankruptcy. The only way to a better life, is through the skills of selling. Whether in Sales or in Life, there are 9 core skills that you must develop in order to be successful. The 9 C's: Communication. Connection. Curiosity. Creativity. Consistency. Continuous learning. Coachable. Handle Criticism and Courage.Every episode I'll touch on one or more of the core skills so that you can do more; be more; and have more. And the first sale you must make is selling you on you.

    Send us a textThis is probably one of the most important episodes I've ever done.We're talking about the difference between beliefs and believing, and how clinging to old beliefs might be the very thing holding you back from building what's next.Beliefs can become traps. They can turn into condemnation, regret, and self-sabotage, especially when you're trying to move forward but keep comparing yourself to who you used to be.In this episode, I unpack insights from Bryan Eisenberg's book, "I Think I Swallowed an Elephant," and reflect on how outdated belief systems create internal weight that we don't even realize we're carrying. You'll hear how believing — the active version — is what keeps momentum alive, and why your next chapter won't come from coasting on what got you here.We'll get real about the lies we tell ourselves, the quiet conversations we think no one hears, and how to update the internal software that runs our lives.If you feel stuck… If you've been successful in the past but can't seem to reignite the fire… If you know it's time for a reset, this one's for you.Let's rewrite the story. Let's believe forward. Let's get it! Support the show

I'm not here to preach. I'm just working through it with you. Because like you, I'm searching for something real.

    Send us a textI was reading "Born of This Land" by Chung Ju-Yung, the founder of Hyundai, and one passage stopped me, causing me to whip out my legal pad and really think it through.  “When a small idea, the size of a grain of rice, is implanted in my mind, I nurture it until it grows into a major project I can visualize in my head.”That's the key. Most people dig up their seed(s) too early. They let circumstances, rejection, or bad news convince them it's not possible.But if you're blessed with a thought, plant it. Protect it. Nurture it. Visualize it. And don't sabotage it with your own words, actions, or habits (nor anyone else's words, actions, or habits.) This episode serves as a reminder to stop giving your energy to doubt and start directing it toward what you say you want. If people tell you you're crazy, you're probably on the right track.Support the show

However, too many salespeople fill the silence, killing the moment when the customer is thinking, trusting, and preparing to reveal what really matters. I break down why learning to hold the pause is one of the most underrated and transformational sales skills—and how to put it into practice starting today.If you want to be the kind of salesperson who guides rather than pitches, and builds trust rather than transfers information—this one's for you.Because sometimes, the most amazing things happen when you wait for them.Grab a copy of Catherine Brown's book, How Good Humans Sell Connect to Catherine Brown on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/catherineleebrown/Support the show
