Notable quotes from our conversation:
“If you want to be showing up in your marketing and in your business in a way that's really true to you, then you have to start with your values.”
“We're always dealing with people. And if we're dealing with people, then we're only having conversations. We never have to sell. We never have to pitch.”
“I want people to really love selling because it's beautiful. Because when we sell something, we're really helping the other person.”
“When people come to me and talk to me about my money mindset, I feel the difference is the inherent belief that money exists. I believe that there is a client out there at any point that will want to work with me, and they will pay what I want to charge.”
“If we say, ‘I believe there are clients out there who are going to want to work with me,’ then I'm going to subconsciously speak in a way and show up in a manner which is so different from when I believe that nothing is going to happen.”
“If we don't sell, we're going to deprive others of our gift.”
