Your income, stabilized. Your people, found. JOIN HERE. What if selling wasn't something you had to "get through" in your business—but the exact skill that unlocks your freedom? I sit down with sales mentor Jane Garee to unpack what selling really is (and what it's not). Spoiler: it's not about pushing, convincing, or "selling yourself." It's about facilitating powerful conversations that change lives—including your own. Inside this episode, we cover: ✨ Why selling is a noble act of service—not manipulation ✨ How to move away from "selling yourself" into offering true transformation ✨ Why rejection isn't personal (and how to detach your worth from a yes or no) ✨ The link between learning sales and creating a business that funds your freedom ✨ How to integrate travel, business, and sales so they actually work together This conversation isn't about sleazy scripts or outdated formulas. It's about redefining sales as the life skill that allows you to design a business—and a lifestyle—on your own terms.

After a successful corporate sales career with two billion-dollar companies, she launched Showstopping Sales™ in 2010, hitting six figures her first year. Known for her conversion expertise in enrollment conversations, content, and presentations, Jane teaches clients how to sell with confidence, authenticity, authority, and ease. In 2022, she co-founded Wander the 7™, a lifestyle brand helping digital entrepreneurs integrate slow travel into their business for true location freedom. Jane is a sought-after speaker, expert contributor, and author of Unlocking Effortless Sales and How to Travel More Without Missing a Business Beat. When she's not working or exploring the world, Jane's probably writing historical fiction, shopping for travel gear, or at the spa—because life is too short to skip massages and facials.

Your income, stabilized. Your people, found. JOIN HERE. What does it really take to build a business that fuels your freedom—starting with your inner child? In this episode of Your Business Untethered, we go deep with inner child coach and fellow nomad Dr. Kai on the exact practices that heal the patterns running your life (and your business) from the shadows. This isn't fluffy—it's the work that turns chaos into clarity, feast-or-famine into flow, and people-pleasing into purposeful leadership. Forget the cookie-cutter strategies—real freedom entrepreneurship asks you to defy conditioning, define your values, and structure your business around who you truly are. Inside this episode, we cover: ✨ Kai's 4-step "butterfly" method: boundaries, mindfulness, loving-kindness (metta), and knowing your needs/values ✨ The courage to "look under the bed" (the boogeyman metaphor) and face what you've been avoiding ✨ Two client case studies: a physician who finally said no (and rebuilt trust at work) and an architect who negotiated her dream role on a hospital project ✨ Why inner work is the secret business strategy (hello, sales triggers, money stories, and consistent clients) ✨ Slowmad > burnout: why settling in one place can scale both your impact and your income This isn't just another strategy talk—it's a call to unlearn what you were taught about success and build a business that serves you, not the other way around.

    E23: The hardest thing about quitting your job and starting a business w/ Badr Lakchiri

    JOIN THE FREEDOM BUSINESS INCUBATOR — now open for founding members. Get coaching, clarity, and community for just $97/month (first 10 spots only — then it's $147). Your business, aligned. Your income, stabilized. Your people, found. JOIN HERE. This special guest is actually my parter in life and business: Badr Lakchiri. I've brought him on to talk about the fears, hurdles, and mindset shifts we go through as new entrepreneurs:  How do you sell something you deeply believe in… without slipping back into people-pleasing, perfectionism, or playing small? We're unpacking the nervous-system truths behind selling — especially when you're at the beginning of your business or evolving into a more aligned offer. This episode isn't about sleazy strategy or manipulating psychology to get the sale. It's about understanding the emotional charge around selling, healing your relationship to visibility, and moving from "I have to sell" to "I can't wait to share this." If you've ever felt yourself freeze, fawn, or overthink when launching something new (even as big as an entire business) — this conversation is your reset button. Inside this episode, we cover: ✨ The #1 reason selling feels scary (and it's not strategy) ✨ What your nervous system is trying to protect you from — and how to work with it ✨ The power of launching with a "real-time" audience, even when your offer is new ✨ Why making aligned money requires simplifying, not over-planning ✨ How to stop proving and start leading — even before you feel "ready" As always with Badr, we go way deep: this is a reckoning with everything you were taught about being too much, too ambitious, or too visible. Because when you build your business on freedom, service, and self-trust — selling becomes sacred.
