Sales Still Feels Icky Sometimes (Let’s Talk About It)


Hey sis,

Am I the only one who still feels a little icky when it comes to sales? 🙋🏽‍♀️

You can be passionate about your product or service, but the moment it’s time to ask for the sale… suddenly you’re stumbling over your words or second-guessing yourself. Even as a full-time entrepreneur going on 5 years now, I still get tripped up here sometimes.

It’s a strange place to be in—wanting to make money, knowing God called you to this work, but still hesitating when it’s time to actually sell.

That’s why this week’s podcast episode is so special. I sat down with my colleague Dawn Grooters, who has closed over $1M in sales—over the phone! 🤯

She shares:

  • How to overcome the fear of rejection
  • Why the tragic loss of her newborn shifted how she saw sales
  • The mindset shifts we need as Christian women entrepreneurs
  • Why it’s time to rip the Band-Aid off and start selling with confidence

Sis, you don’t have to dread sales. You can learn to do it in a way that honors God, serves people well, and grows your business.

Hey Reader, When was the last time you read up on the P31 woman? Now, hear me out. I know in Christian culture she can come off as a cliché, overspoken about or studied, or, on the other end of the spectrum, she seems too far off to duplicate or match up to, so we stay away altogether. (Listen, I found myself on both ends, so you’re not alone). However, the other day I felt myself a bit burnt out and confused. I’ve been striving these past weeks in both life and business; I felt the need to...

Hey Reader, There’s something about July that brings a sense of newness, pace, and expectation. Like the prayers you’ve prayed at the beginning of the year have been sizzling in God’s ear, prepping to meet you in the summer and dramatically change your life right before the colder months roll in (is it just me?). This sense of newness captured me as I begged my husband to allow my daughter and me to become plant moms and get this beautiful hanging porch flower plant (idk if that's what...

Reader, We're officially in June. It's 10:30 pm as I write this. And I can't help but crave an unhurried, unrushed, simpler lifestyle. I'm still fresh off a 16-hour drive from New York to Milwaukee after an extended stay in New York for 2 months. I crammed a week's worth of work into 5 hours, and just finished reading Open the Barn Door for the 18th time (a little exaggeration here) to my baby girl. I am burnt out. As I reflect on what's on my plate, what needs to be taken off, safeguarded,...
