    The ER Moment That Exposed My People Pleasing

    Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host, Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success.   If you've ever found yourself reading the room, adjusting your behavior, or avoiding asking for what you need because you "don't want to be a burden," this episode is for you. I'm unpacking why high performers, especially enterprise sellers, fall into people pleasing, how it served you once, and why it's sabotaging your success now.  You'll walk away with the clarity and courage to set boundaries, speak up, and stop outsourcing your energy to everyone else.   🎯 In this episode, I riff on:      ↠ Why people pleasing often starts in childhood as a survival mechanism      ↠ How being a chameleon helps in sales, but comes at a hidden cost      ↠ The emotional toll of constantly adapting to others' needs      ↠ The burnout spiral caused by ignoring your own limits      ↠ How people pleasing prevents authentic connection      ↠ A powerful reframe: being yourself is the most generous thing you can do      ↠ The uncomfortable (but essential) disorientation of behavior change      ↠ A personal story that revealed how deeply people pleasing runs      ↠ The fear of being a burden, and why it's mostly in your head      ↠ A simple challenge to start unlearning this habit: just say "yes"      ↠ Why asking for what you need is a gift to you and those around you   PS.

    How I Got in the Best Shape of My Life... In a Way I Never Thought Would Work

    Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host, Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success.   If you've ever set a goal, hyped yourself up, made the perfect plan and then watched it fizzle, you're not alone. In this episode, I share how I finally got in the best shape of my life not by doubling down on discipline, but by taking a radically different approach: self-compassion. What started as an experiment led to consistent fitness, better focus, and the most confident version of myself. You'll walk away with a new framework that might just change how you achieve everything.   🎯 In this episode, I riff on:      ↠ Why 20+ years of rigid fitness plans never worked for me      ↠ How getting diagnosed with ADHD reframed my entire approach to goals      ↠ The burnout that came from motivating myself with fear and adrenaline      ↠ What self-acceptance actually looks like in daily habits      ↠ How strength training transformed once I honored how I learn best      ↠ The game-changing decision to hire a personal trainer (and why it stuck)      ↠ Shifting from shame-based motivation to kindness-based action      ↠ How "doing favors for my future self" became a guiding mindset      ↠ The wild connection between self-compassion and peak performance      ↠ Why your best results might come from being nicer to yourself   PS.

    I Got Braces Again… and It Changed How I Measure Success

    Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success. Today is story time. And yes, it involves braces. But this isn't really about teeth. It's about the moment you realize your younger self would be absolutely blown away by the life you've built… Even if you don't feel successful day-to-day.  In this episode, I share a personal story that snapped me back into perspective, then break down the psychology that keeps high performers stuck in "the gap" and constantly chasing more. You'll leave with a simple reframe to feel proud of your progress, stop letting comparison run your goals, and start measuring success in a way that actually aligns with your values.   🎯 In this episode, I riff on:      ↠ Why getting braces again unexpectedly brought up old versions of me      ↠ Growing up in poverty and what "success" used to feel like      ↠ Working at Kinko's, going to school full-time, and paying for everything myself      ↠ The $8 burrito moment and what it revealed about survival-mode ambition      ↠ The emotional contrast of paying for braces now without financial stress      ↠ Why you don't always feel successful when you become successful      ↠ The trap of living in "the gap" and never looking backward      ↠ Meeting your past self and recognizing the tenacity that built your current life      ↠ How comparison erases perspective and fuels dissatisfaction      ↠ A powerful money mindset insight from Morgan Housel      ↠ Why money is a great tool, but a terrible servant when it's used for status      ↠ The deserted island test: Would you still want it if no one could see it?      ↠ The 48-hour status boost (and why chasing it never ends)      ↠ A grounding question to reset what you're going after next      ↠ Choosing goals based on values instead of optics   PS.

  7. Top Performers Still Feel Imposter Syndrome (Here's What They Do Anyway)

    Top Performers Still Feel Imposter Syndrome (Here's What They Do Anyway)

    Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success. If you've ever assumed top reps are just built differently, this episode is going to be a relief. I was on a call with a client recently and told them I experience imposter syndrome, too. Their reaction was basically, "Wait… YOU?" And honestly, that's exactly why I wanted to record this. Because I've coached hundreds of enterprise and strategic AEs over the past eight years, including reps who became #1 on their team, #1 in their org, hit President's Club, closed mega deals, and earned seven figures in commission. And here's the truth: they're not robots. They're normal humans with self-doubt, insecurity, and imposter syndrome… they've just learned how to work with their brain instead of letting it run the show. In this episode, I'm breaking down what's actually happening inside the heads of top performers, and the simple mindset shifts they use to stay consultative, confident, and consistent even when their inner critic is loud.   🎯 In this episode, I riff on:      ↠ The surprising truth about top reps: they still struggle with self-doubt      ↠ What actually separates top performers from the reps who stay stuck      ↠ Why belief is the real differentiator (and how to build it)      ↠ The strength-first approach: optimize what you're good at instead of "fixing" everything      ↠ My favorite mantra for nervous systems that spiral: "I always figure it out."      ↠ How to stop being trapped in your head by getting into the buyer's world      ↠ The consultative mindset shift that makes you instantly more confident      ↠ Detaching from the outcome so you stop selling from scarcity      ↠ The real goal of selling: solve real problems, don't pressure people      ↠ Why imposter syndrome hits women, men, and minorities and why feeling "different" amplifies it      ↠ Small tweaks that create massive performance results (the batting coach approach)      ↠ Why you're closer than you think to your best year ever   PS.

  8. The Simple Planning Shift That Gives Sellers 2 Hours Back Every Day

    The Simple Planning Shift That Gives Sellers 2 Hours Back Every Day

    Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast. I'm your host Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success. If planning feels heavy, annoying, or like one more thing on your to-do list, this episode is for you. Most sellers either: • Don't plan at all and spend the day putting out fires, or • Try to follow someone else's "perfect system" and assume they are the problem when it doesn't work. You don't need a complicated notion board or a 2-hour CEO block. You need a simple way to decide in advance what matters most, and keep it where you can actually see it. In this episode, I walk you through a planning shift that takes 5-7 minutes and can easily give you two hours back in your day by cutting down decision fatigue, distractions, and low-value busywork.   🎯 In this episode, I riff on:      ↠ Why planning is simply making decisions in advance (and why that matters)      ↠ The biggest mistake sellers make: mixing planning and execution together      ↠ How a 5-7 minute planning ritual can save you hours of wasted time      ↠ Why your plan needs to live in your visual space (Post-its, tick charts, simple paper)      ↠ Treating your future self like an employee you're setting up for success      ↠ A Monday "list-making day" for when you struggle to get going      ↠ Daily planning: morning vs end-of-day  and how to stop night-time rumination      ↠ What actually happens to your quota when you "just start working" without a plan      ↠ Different rhythms to test: daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly planning      ↠ Using a 12 Week Year-style quarter to make decisions once and simply execute      ↠ How to build a personal operating system that makes sense to you (not LinkedIn)      ↠ Dropping the "shoulds" and letting your planning style match your actual brain   PS.
