This episode is about the icky old sales topic. We're talking about why Mormons are amazing at sales, how to turn a no into a yes, why you need to sell yourself first before you can sell anyone else, and the difference between commission breath and real conviction. Featuring post-it note funnels, sticker charts for adults, and why "I'm not good at sales" is as bad as saying you're no good at parenting. If you've ever felt weird about your prices or avoided asking for the sale, this one's for you.

We're diving into belief versus doubt - the battle every business owner faces. Because you've got to believe you can change the world or solve this problem, right? That's what starts the spark. But we're idealistic, and I think we need to be. The minute someone sits on your idea early, it can kill it. So this conversation's about protecting that belief, finding your people, and working through the wobbly bits.
