Must-listen moments:
[00:09:20] After calculating what it cost me to work, including travel, childcare, clothes, etc. even though I had a good job, my net income back to the family was about $10,000 a year.
[00:16:08] Part of being profitable right away was watching my expenses. I think knowing what I wanted my net take home number to be helped ensure that my business had net profit. Otherwise, why was I doing it?
[00:32:00] When I'm afraid, I always do look for help, that is just how I am. I'm going to find a way to work through it. I get afraid if I notice that my pipeline isn't healthy. But then, right away I'm like, all right, so what do I need to do?

Who would ever want to be “in sales”? she thought. Yet, she found her calling helping people who also never saw themselves in sales, succeed in selling!
