Today is an extraordinary episode. Who would guess a comedian would deliver one of the deepest and most thought-provoking episodes of the season? Gina and Susanna welcome comedian, impersonator, keynote speaker and improviser mindset coach, Dion Flynn to the show. Dion starts by admitting that comedy is a way to talk about heavy subjects, disguised in humor. Susanna asks Dion about intensity, and how it plays a role in the sales environment. Dion warns that certain intensity gives off the stench of desperation. Gina ponders if people who are better in personal relationships, are better in sales. Dion knows that listening is a vital part of good personal relationships and likens it to the building blocks of improv, which is grounded in listening and valuing the other people around you. So much of improv is about connection and skills in improv help you to read people and situations at a new level. True listening brings learning. So they discuss the different ways people learn and why some people are driven by learning new things while others aren't as much, or some that choose to take the opportunity to learn when the right moment presents itself. Then things start to get deep. Conversations about addiction, DNA passed from our parents, difficult lessons from your upbringing, meditation, psychodrama, stabilizing your mind, healing old wounds, the power of stillness. Then it gets lighter with cashing in on prostate exams, presidential impersonations, searching for the love of your parents, an impromptu improv scene, and befriending and then reconnecting with Jimmy Fallon. Do not miss a moment of this unique, immersive, moving, and yes, damn funny episode. Please take a minute to share this with someone that knows you and cares about it.   Find out more about Dion. Come and grow with Sales Gravy & Sales Gravy University More about Gina Engagement Expert – Speaker – Sales Trainer – Entrepreneur – Improv Comic Gina is a Master Sales Trainer for Jeb Blount's Sales Gravy who combines street smarts and improv comedy skills with her experience in the corporate and entrepreneurial worlds, which sets her apart from her competition.  “Sass without too much crass” is how Gina Trimarco describes herself. A high energy entrepreneur, engager, speaker, trainer, improv comedienne and podcast producer, Gina credits most of her success on her upbringing by her Italian mobster dad and German immigrant mother. Prior to joining Sales Gravy, Gina founded and operated Carolina Improv Company, an improv comedy school and theater, in addition to Pivot10 Results, a sales training company. Thanks to this podcast, Gina was able to “stalk” her business role model Jeb Blount and convince him to hire her … and sponsor this podcast! More About Susanna After graduating from Cambridge University in Music and Education, Susanna took her first sales role selling advertising space on websites. She's always been intrigued by the unfair negative stigma associated with sales and the way that after their initial excitement to work in sales, people will do everything they can to avoid actual prospecting. With 14 years of experience in recruitment, Susanna challenges this mindset through her successful business sourcing sales professionals into recruitment roles. Susanna decided to become a Sales Gravy Master Trainer because Sales Gravy's vision matches her own beliefs and values. She is committed to providing excellence and dedication to all of her trainees so that they can achieve their goals and succeed in sales.

Listen to Black American Actor, Comedian, Impersonator, and Improv Specialist Dion Flynn, Master of Arts in Acting from NYU — who lived in Michigan until he was 2-years-old, then lived in Maryland until 17-years-old, and enlisted in the U.S. Army, then lived in Albany, New York, then New York City, and now currently lives in Brooklyn — share about his ancestry that he learned through 23 and Me, which is British, Irish, and Sub-Saharan African. He shares about founding “The Improviser's Mindset” during the Covid-19 pandemic where Dion helps people connect with themselves and others using the powerful skills of improv.“So, to bring the metaphor back to what is 24 hours like in our home during the pandemic, I just saw that I never had the option to just sit down in the snow and die. I had two entities upstairs who were depending on me and to find new ways to use the technology and become more savvy with online forms of collecting payments for whatever the things I'm doing. All these things. All these adaptations came from the offers of the pandemic. You know, Sonja, in improv we talk about offers: anything that someone does on onstage, like my scene partner, they do something, we call it an offer rather than a thing or you did something. We call it an offer, because it already has the energy of it being a positive thing. Oh, I can see what you're doing. I can see this. So, the pandemic arrives and my brain had been trained to look at everything that life brought as an offer. And some people, through religious terminology, will call it God's will. Everybody's got a way of shaping the reality with language that helps them navigate it. So, for me, this improv stuff really helped, because I saw the arrival of the pandemic in all of its component parts, both the external offers... you know, sickness, quarantine, you can't go anywhere, you can't travel, you can't travel work abroad the way you used to. The internal offers like our own fear coming up, us having to get closer as a family and really learn how to navigate a small NYC apartment, when we really can't go out even freely like we used to do..."Dion memorializes losing his mentor, Jerold Mundis, to Covid-19 in 2020. Mundis was an author who reached many people through his books, especially “How to Get Out of Debt, Stay Out of Debt, and Live Prosperously.”
