    EP 14 Sarah Robbins and The #1 Skill Leaders Overlook (and Why It's Costing You Momentum)

    In this episode of Leaders, a Network Marketing Podcast, host Keith Callahan sits down with Sarah Robbins for a masterclass in leadership, duplication, and building teams that multiply, not just grow. They talk about the overlooked skill that's quietly holding leaders back: development.

She opens up about rebuilding her business from scratch after her former company changed direction, and how that experience reshaped the way she trains, mentors, and empowers leaders today. Keith and Sarah dive deep into what it actually takes to create momentum, scale with simplicity, and lead from a place of purpose, not pressure. If you've ever wondered how to turn enrollments into duplicating leaders, or how to simplify your systems without sacrificing results, this episode will give you the framework, belief, and clarity to multiply what matters.
