Part 3: Healing and Moving Forward</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Episode Overview</strong></p><p>In the final installment of her vulnerable three-part series, Kristen continues to unpack the emotional, spiritual, and professional journey she’s been on over the past year. Picking up where she left off—at rock bottom—Kristen shares what happened after taking radical responsibility for her actions and stepping away from the business that made her a household name in social selling.</p><p>She explores the deep healing work she’s done through therapy, a transformational retreat, and a season of radical stillness...before realizing that healing often intensifies when we start building again.

Consumer Behavior- Starbucks + Disney</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>It’s easy to think that if your sales are down, it must be because people aren’t spending money. But if you look around, the evidence tells a different story. From long lines at Starbucks to packed Disney parks, it’s clear that people are still opening their wallets. The key isn’t that they’re spending less, it’s that they’re spending differently.

This stage is what’s known as the "danger zone," and it’s a place many of us might find ourselves in without even realizing it. </p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">The concept hit home for Kristen during a conversation with her fitness coach about her current state in her fitness journey.

It’s human nature to avoid pain more than to chase desires</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Your business begins as a solution to this pain, but what happens when the pain is alleviated? Without a new goal, you risk entering the danger zone.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Without the drive to move forward, complacency sets in. You might think there’s an endpoint where you’ve completed your journey, but the truth is, the work never truly ends.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Understand that growth often comes with discomfort. Be willing to put yourself in situations that challenge you and push you out of your comfort zone.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Every entrepreneur reaches a point where the journey feels mundane and less exciting.

What if we find ourselves stuck, unable to expand beyond our current circle? This is where the switch happens—the audience gap.

It results from complacency – relying solely on your existing customer base and neglecting to expand your reach.</li> <li>If you want to level up from side hustle money to entrepreneur money, you need to provide value, nurture leads, and expand your audience.</li> <li>Understand that cold and warm audiences require different strategies. Tailor your messaging and engagement tactics accordingly to maximize your impact.</li> </ul><br/>  <p>Bridging the audience gap isn't easy, but it's essential for long-term success. It's not our customers' job to expand our reach—it's ours. This means actively seeking new opportunities, networking with new faces, and continuously providing value to our audience.

These narratives, left unchallenged, can impede personal and professional growth. </li> <li>Assumptions about others can be detrimental to our professional relationships. Kristen encourages you to confront the stories you have about people in your circle. </li> <li>There's power in vulnerability. By shedding light on our insecurities and acknowledging our imperfections, we create space for authentic connections to flourish.</li> <li>By challenging the stories we tell ourselves, we open the door to new possibilities and create room for genuine connection and understanding.</li> </ul><br/>  <p>The stories we carry, the assumptions we make, and the insecurities we harbor can all serve as barriers to authentic connection.

Money, Marriage, and Motherhood with Jennifer Allwood</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="ltr">Choosing to be an entrepreneur while navigating the complexities of motherhood requires an honest conversation. Let's not sugarcoat it – it can be challenging, and the guilt accompanying it can be overwhelming. Kristen welcomes Jennifer Allwood for an open and candid conversation exploring the challenges entrepreneurial women and moms face, emphasizing the importance of not letting guilt become a hindrance. </p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">In the pursuit of business, mothers might find themselves wrestling with guilt, but the resounding message is clear: Fear is not the boss of you.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Let's look at a few highlights:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Kristen and Jennifer touched upon a common struggle among women – the reluctance to give themselves permission to go all the way. It's a battle that's less about permission and more about confronting the fear that often lurks at the surface. </li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">Many women may inadvertently use their roles as mothers as excuses, feeling guilty about pursuing their entrepreneurial aspirations. The key takeaway is clear: It's impossible to do it all at once, and that's perfectly okay.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation"> Before being someone's mom, you were someone. Jennifer encouraged mothers to rediscover and embrace the identity that existed before the journey of motherhood began.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">The concept of "Entrepreneur Math" comes into play – the strategic art of delegation and prioritization. It's time to question why certain aspects are undervalued and consciously prioritize what truly matters.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">A common obstacle women face in their entrepreneurial journey is the fear of success. This fear can manifest as self-sabotage and excuses, hindering us from reaching our full potential.</li> </ul><br/>  <p dir="ltr">Motherhood and business don't have to compete – they can coexist, and by embracing both aspects with intentionality, we can create a life that aligns with our values and aspirations. The entrepreneurship journey intertwined with money, marriage, and motherhood is a multifaceted adventure. It's about breaking the chains of fear, guilt, and self-sabotage. It's about giving ourselves permission to be amazing at both, understanding that something will always have to give, and that's perfectly okay.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Learn more about Jennifer Allwood: <a href= "https://jenniferallwood.com/">https://jenniferallwood.com/</a></p>  <p dir="ltr">Elevate your holiday sales with our <a href= "https://kristenboss.samcart.com/products/holiday-guide">Monetize & Maximize Holiday Sales Guide,</a> your ultimate resource for proven, organic marketing success.

It's about seeing challenges as opportunities for improvement and understanding that the present is a stepping stone to a brighter future.</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>By choosing to be a visionary, cultivating resilience, and learning from the past rather than dwelling in it, you pave the way for business success and a fulfilling and empowered life.

This talk led to some eye-opening discussions, linking the process of pruning to smart business strategies and offering valuable lessons for everyone aiming to grow professionally.</p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">Kristen's story about two trees holds invaluable lessons about pruning and the transformative power of speaking life into seemingly challenging situations.

It's not just the victorious seasons that define us; instead, it's our ability to navigate and grow through the challenging times that truly shape us.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">It's a reminder that by speaking life into our endeavors, exercising patience, and consistently putting in the effort, we have the capacity to build something that lasts—a testament to the power of intentional growth and nurturing.</li> </ul><br/> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">The crucial takeaway is about persevering and speaking positivity into our efforts.

Engage with others' content just as you'd like them to engage with yours. It's a mutually beneficial approach.</li> <li dir="ltr" role="presentation">We often expect free access to content, from advice to entertainment. While this expectation isn't inherently wrong, it can promote passive consumption without reciprocation.</li> </ul><br/> <p dir="ltr"> Content entitlement comes in two forms, and it's crucial to recognize which category you might fall into. Whether you're a content creator or a consumer, clarity in how you use, create, and consume content is essential. Reframing your mindset, understanding the effort required, and fostering a culture of support rather than entitlement can lead to a more meaningful social media experience. </p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">Introducing the <a href= "https://thesocialsellingleadershipschool.com/?el=podcast160">Social Selling Leadership School</a>: A 12-week Advanced Leadership Certification program for Network Marketers.

Your ADHD doesn't define your worth, capabilities, or potential.</li> <li>A crucial part of the journey is addressing the story that you can't have success because of ADHD.

What she learned during this time has been truly transformative, and today she is eager to share her experiences and insights with you.</p> <p> </p> <p>Let’s look at a few highlights:</p> <ul> <li> Why do we fear judgment when announcing our need for rest?</li> <li> The vital importance of taking a pause when burnout sets in. We often push through, grinding without considering the consequences. But pushing through comes at a price.</li> <li>What are the systems and structures that can be put in place to help your business run smoothly when you step away.</li> <li>Why rest is the key ingredient for creativity. </li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>Kristen is committed to sharing her experiences and advocating for the benefits of rest and play. She carries a newfound appreciation for rest and the strength it brings. She hopes her journey serves as a reminder to prioritize self-care and embrace the power of rest.</p> <p> </p> <p>Remember, it's okay to step back, refill your cup, and return stronger and more inspired than ever before.

But the good news is that once you’re able to recognize the thought patterns that are keeping you down, you’ll have an easier rise to the top.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Listen in as Kristen goes over these key topics:</p>  <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Why consistency breeds quality</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">How consistency can help build trust with your audience</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The biggest lie we tell ourselves as entrepreneurs</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">An explanation of the 80/20 and where your results come in</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Learning to be comfortable with delayed gratification</p> </li> </ul><br/>  <p dir="ltr">A lack of consistency is the number one reason why people fail to see results in their businesses.

But the good news is that once you’re able to recognize the thought patterns that are keeping you down, you’ll have an easier rise to the top.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Listen in as Kristen goes over these key topics:</p>  <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Why consistency breeds quality</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">How consistency can help build trust with your audience</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The biggest lie we tell ourselves as entrepreneurs</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">An explanation of the 80/20 and where your results come in</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Learning to be comfortable with delayed gratification</p> </li> </ul><br/>  <p dir="ltr">A lack of consistency is the number one reason why people fail to see results in their businesses. From building trust with your audience to building self-discipline, consistency is the foundation on which your business is built. The best part is that anyone can do it. All you have to do is get started and keep going.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Don’t miss out on the in-person social selling event of the year!

Grace and Grit with Robin Long</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p dir="ltr">If you’ve hung around this podcast long enough, then you’ve probably heard Kristen mention (on more than one occasion) the parallels between sustainable practices in business and in health. The diet analogy is one of her favorites because of how relatable it is. But even so, it can still be hard to see that the same habits you use to improve your health are the same habits you can use to grow your business.</p> <p> </p> <p dir="ltr">And that’s why Kristen has brought on her friend and fellow entrepreneur, Robin Long, to talk about the grace and grit it takes to build and grow - not just a healthy lifestyle, but a successful business. Robin is the Founder and CEO of Lindywell, a top-rated Pilates group, and believes in an anti-hustle approach to better fitness and better health.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Jump in to hear these highlights and more:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Robin’s journey on the path to sustainable healthy habits</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Tips for growing out of that awkward beginner's stage of owning a business</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The importance of choosing grace over guilt</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The only secret formula needed to succeed is consistency</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Where compassion comes in when creating new habits</p> </li> </ul><br/>  <p dir="ltr">The road to success is hard. And it’s going to be full of detours. Allowing yourself grace instead of shame or guilt over setbacks is essential to your growth. Rome wasn’t built in a day. So expecting instant results when just starting to build new habits will only hurt your growth.</p>  <p dir="ltr">If you’d like to stay up to date with Robin and get workout inspiration, you can follow her on Instagram <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/wearelindywell">@wearelindy</a>.</p>  <p dir="ltr">And if you’re interested in creating new healthy habits, Robin is starting a new 14-Day Strong Body, Calm Mind Pilates + Breathwork Challenge on March 13th and runs through March 26th.

But what is it that makes you think that you’re unworthy of the title? These feelings of unworthiness can manifest into thoughts like ‘<em>If I were a better leader, my team member wouldn’t have left,’</em> or ‘<em>If I knew how to talk to my team, then their sales numbers would be better</em>.’ And those kinds of thoughts just aren’t serving you.</p> <p> </p> <p>That’s why Kristen is here to talk about leader shame and the effect it can have on not only your business and team but also in how you show up in your personal life.</p> <p> </p> <p>Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What a leader IS NOT</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Growing through your journey as a leader alongside your team</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Definition of shame and how it affects your leadership</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">A strategy on how to move through leader shame</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How removing judgment can and will make room for acceptance</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>You’re human. And like all humans, you’re going to make mistakes. Not all leaders are perfect, so there’s no reason to expect perfection from yourself.

These feelings of unworthiness can manifest into thoughts like ‘<em>If I were a better leader, my team member wouldn’t have left,’</em> or ‘<em>If I knew how to talk to my team, then their sales numbers would be better</em>.’ And those kinds of thoughts just aren’t serving you.</p> <p> </p> <p>That’s why Kristen is here to talk about leader shame and the effect it can have on not only your business and team but also in how you show up in your personal life.</p> <p> </p> <p>Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What a leader IS NOT</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Growing through your journey as a leader alongside your team</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Definition of shame and how it affects your leadership</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">A strategy on how to move through leader shame</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How removing judgment can and will make room for acceptance</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>You’re human. And like all humans, you’re going to make mistakes. Not all leaders are perfect, so there’s no reason to expect perfection from yourself. The next time you feel unworthy of being a leader - try looking through the lens of self-compassion and have kindness for yourself and the journey you’re on. </p> <p> </p> <p>You heard right!

Ushering in a new year is the perfect time to start thinking about resolutions and the things you’d like to change in your life. Whether it’s to lose weight, make a bigger paycheck, or kick bad habits to the curb, this is the time to do it.</p> <p> </p> <p>But what if the reason WHY you’re making these new year’s resolutions are just as important as the resolutions themselves? When you set goals from a place of self-loathing and worthlessness, it can affect more than just those goals.</p> <p> </p> <p>That’s why, in this episode, Kristen is talking about the ‘new year, new you’ philosophy and why it can be damaging your future plans before you’ve even taken the first step</p> <p> </p> <p>Here are a few key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why it can be toxic when we set goals based on past disappointments</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What it looks like to base goals on self-love vs. self-loathing</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Debunking the ‘you can’t bring your old self into the new year’ belief</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How learning creates change</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>No one ever said change was bad. But making changes because you hate the way you look or because you’re disappointed in yourself isn’t the most healthy approach. Instead, give yourself some compassion. Have an honest conversation about how your circumstances are the way they are, then take ownership of it. Then - from a place of self-love, create goals that align with who you want to be in the new year. </p> <p> </p> <p>We have an exciting announcement! Starting now, you can join Kristen’s new Facebook Community, The Purposeful Social Selling Community, where you can connect with other like-minded social sellers looking to break the hustle cycle and find sustainable growth in the new year. <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepurposefulsocialsellingcommunity"> Join for free by clicking here</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening!

Whether it’s to lose weight, make a bigger paycheck, or kick bad habits to the curb, this is the time to do it.</p> <p> </p> <p>But what if the reason WHY you’re making these new year’s resolutions are just as important as the resolutions themselves? When you set goals from a place of self-loathing and worthlessness, it can affect more than just those goals.</p> <p> </p> <p>That’s why, in this episode, Kristen is talking about the ‘new year, new you’ philosophy and why it can be damaging your future plans before you’ve even taken the first step</p> <p> </p> <p>Here are a few key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why it can be toxic when we set goals based on past disappointments</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What it looks like to base goals on self-love vs. self-loathing</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Debunking the ‘you can’t bring your old self into the new year’ belief</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How learning creates change</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>No one ever said change was bad. But making changes because you hate the way you look or because you’re disappointed in yourself isn’t the most healthy approach. Instead, give yourself some compassion. Have an honest conversation about how your circumstances are the way they are, then take ownership of it. Then - from a place of self-love, create goals that align with who you want to be in the new year. </p> <p> </p> <p>We have an exciting announcement! Starting now, you can join Kristen’s new Facebook Community, The Purposeful Social Selling Community, where you can connect with other like-minded social sellers looking to break the hustle cycle and find sustainable growth in the new year. <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepurposefulsocialsellingcommunity"> Join for free by clicking here</a>.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening!

Sometimes the things you need to do in order to reach your goals can feel like a step back. Taking a part-time job or learning new skills isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of strength.

Some months are great, while others can fall flat.

The Easy/Hard Paradox</title><itunes:title>134. The Easy/Hard Paradox</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Instant gratification is great and all, but what if we told you that it might be the reason you’re not reaching your goals? Choosing the easy path in business (and in your personal life) can set you up for failure. What your brain sees as the easy choice: putting off reaching out to new leads, taking a nap instead of hitting the gym, or simply ignoring your inbox; results in getting nothing done, and you’re just left feeling frustrated and defeated.</p> <p> </p> <p>Kristen is here this week to shake things up a bit by explaining why what you THINK is easy is actually hard and what you see as hard is actually easy. It’s what she’s termed the easy/hard paradox, and it could be the key to setting you on the path to success.</p> <p> </p> <p>Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">When choosing what is easy turns into hard</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How deferring the hard compounds and creates even harder stuff later</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What really happens when you do the hard stuff today</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How restraint and delayed gratification can create financial freedom</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The day of reckoning that every entrepreneur faces</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>Of course, it’s hard to get back in the saddle. But choosing the hard stuff now will create an easier path for you later on. Instead of looking for ways to get away with the bare minimum - reevaluate and try to envision how it will affect you one year, two years - even five years down the road. Then you’ll see that delaying those hard decisions will only make it harder for you to get the results you came for.</p> <p> </p> <p>Looking for a way to maximize your sales this upcoming holiday season?

What your brain sees as the easy choice: putting off reaching out to new leads, taking a nap instead of hitting the gym, or simply ignoring your inbox; results in getting nothing done, and you’re just left feeling frustrated and defeated.</p> <p> </p> <p>Kristen is here this week to shake things up a bit by explaining why what you THINK is easy is actually hard and what you see as hard is actually easy. It’s what she’s termed the easy/hard paradox, and it could be the key to setting you on the path to success.</p> <p> </p> <p>Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">When choosing what is easy turns into hard</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How deferring the hard compounds and creates even harder stuff later</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What really happens when you do the hard stuff today</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How restraint and delayed gratification can create financial freedom</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The day of reckoning that every entrepreneur faces</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>Of course, it’s hard to get back in the saddle. But choosing the hard stuff now will create an easier path for you later on. Instead of looking for ways to get away with the bare minimum - reevaluate and try to envision how it will affect you one year, two years - even five years down the road. Then you’ll see that delaying those hard decisions will only make it harder for you to get the results you came for.</p> <p> </p> <p>Looking for a way to maximize your sales this upcoming holiday season?

The Result Ratio</title><itunes:title>130. The Result Ratio</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>We’ve all uttered the words, “there are only so many hours in a day.” When the day ends, and you look back over what you’ve accomplished in a 24-hour span, it might be discouraging to see so much effort being put into your business with such little return. And you might begin thinking that it just isn’t worth it anymore. </p> <p> </p> <p>But have you ever paid attention to what it is that’s actually taking up all of your time? Are you researching endlessly before putting yourself (and your business) out there? Are you consuming more content than you’re creating? If so, then you might want to check your result ratio.</p> <p> </p> <p>This week on the podcast, Kristen is discussing the concept of the result ratio and how it can help you to monitor your efforts in growing your business. Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Kristen’s definition of the result ratio</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why advice is always theory until you apply it to your own business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How your consumption vs. creation ratio might be negatively affecting your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why research isn’t a shortcut to growing your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to measure and monitor your result ratio</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>At the end of the day, you want to be able to look back and know that you’re adding to the enrichment of your life and business. Instead of drowning in research - it’s time to get out there and apply those theories in the real world. You won’t grow until you do the work. Failure isn’t forever. Failure is a stepping stone on the way to your goal.</p> <p> </p> <p>The Book Bonus is back just in time to get in on the last 90 Day Challenge of the year!

And you might begin thinking that it just isn’t worth it anymore. </p> <p> </p> <p>But have you ever paid attention to what it is that’s actually taking up all of your time? Are you researching endlessly before putting yourself (and your business) out there? Are you consuming more content than you’re creating? If so, then you might want to check your result ratio.</p> <p> </p> <p>This week on the podcast, Kristen is discussing the concept of the result ratio and how it can help you to monitor your efforts in growing your business. Listen in as she goes over these key points:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Kristen’s definition of the result ratio</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why advice is always theory until you apply it to your own business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How your consumption vs. creation ratio might be negatively affecting your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why research isn’t a shortcut to growing your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to measure and monitor your result ratio</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>At the end of the day, you want to be able to look back and know that you’re adding to the enrichment of your life and business. Instead of drowning in research - it’s time to get out there and apply those theories in the real world. You won’t grow until you do the work. Failure isn’t forever. Failure is a stepping stone on the way to your goal.</p> <p> </p> <p>The Book Bonus is back just in time to get in on the last 90 Day Challenge of the year!

But some people in this industry think that by just setting up a website and building a funnel, they’ll have to fight off new customers with a stick. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. When you’re first starting out, your number one job is to generate revenue. You can’t sit around expecting people to show up on their own.</p> <p> </p> <p>These are actually two totally different selling types known as active and passive selling. And this week, Kristen is going to explain to you where each type of selling fits in based on where you are in your business.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here are a few takeaways:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Run down of the differences between passive and active selling</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What happens when you jump into passive selling too soon in your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Examples of active selling that can get you back into practice</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The importance of engagement with your audience in the active selling phase</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to know when it’s time to move into passive selling</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>If you’re in the early phases of your business or not yet meeting your revenue goal, it can be tempting to jump the gun into the passive selling phase.

But some people in this industry think that by just setting up a website and building a funnel, they’ll have to fight off new customers with a stick. Unfortunately, that’s not the case. When you’re first starting out, your number one job is to generate revenue. You can’t sit around expecting people to show up on their own.</p> <p> </p> <p>These are actually two totally different selling types known as active and passive selling. And this week, Kristen is going to explain to you where each type of selling fits in based on where you are in your business.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here are a few takeaways:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Run down of the differences between passive and active selling</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What happens when you jump into passive selling too soon in your business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Examples of active selling that can get you back into practice</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The importance of engagement with your audience in the active selling phase</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to know when it’s time to move into passive selling</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>If you’re in the early phases of your business or not yet meeting your revenue goal, it can be tempting to jump the gun into the passive selling phase. But the easiest way to get where you want to be is to ramp up your active selling. Engaging with your audience in an authentic way will grow your audience and, eventually, your bottom line.

Sometimes when you’re in the middle of doing something hard (hitting a big goal, trying to exercise more, getting the kids to stick to a bedtime routine), your brain offers these thoughts to try and seek out comfort. <em>It’s not working. I’m not good enough. Nobody listens to me.</em> When in truth - these are just thought patterns you’ve created in order to remove yourself from discomfort.</p> <p> </p> <p>And that’s ok to a point.</p> <p> </p> <p>But having these trash thoughts and then choosing to believe them and, in turn - allowing them to alter your course is not ok. Instead, Kristen is encouraging you to call yourself on your own BS. Instead of accepting these stories as facts, she wants to show you how to recognize these thought patterns in order to break the cycle and win the day.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here’s how:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why being prepared for these thoughts can ultimately crush the pattern</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Where (and why!) guilt comes into play</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to recognize the indications that will alert you when you’re engaging in self-sabotage</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Important questions to ask yourself when stuck in a pattern of self-sabotage</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>Getting clear on your own BS behavior is the first step. Your brain will default to these same thoughts and feelings over and over when things get hard. And if you can anticipate these thoughts, it will help you to stay on top of your game and out of your own way in order to reach your goals.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening!

Sometimes when you’re in the middle of doing something hard (hitting a big goal, trying to exercise more, getting the kids to stick to a bedtime routine), your brain offers these thoughts to try and seek out comfort. <em>It’s not working. I’m not good enough. Nobody listens to me.</em> When in truth - these are just thought patterns you’ve created in order to remove yourself from discomfort.</p> <p> </p> <p>And that’s ok to a point.</p> <p> </p> <p>But having these trash thoughts and then choosing to believe them and, in turn - allowing them to alter your course is not ok. Instead, Kristen is encouraging you to call yourself on your own BS. Instead of accepting these stories as facts, she wants to show you how to recognize these thought patterns in order to break the cycle and win the day.</p> <p> </p> <p>Here’s how:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why being prepared for these thoughts can ultimately crush the pattern</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Where (and why!) guilt comes into play</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to recognize the indications that will alert you when you’re engaging in self-sabotage</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Important questions to ask yourself when stuck in a pattern of self-sabotage</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>Getting clear on your own BS behavior is the first step. Your brain will default to these same thoughts and feelings over and over when things get hard. And if you can anticipate these thoughts, it will help you to stay on top of your game and out of your own way in order to reach your goals.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening!

You can choose to ‘boss up’ and honor the promises you made to yourself, or you can continue being frustrated and feeling like you’ll never succeed.&nbsp;</p><p>We hope you’ll choose the path to commitment so that we can share in celebrating you soon.</p><p>If you haven't checked out Kristen's book, <a href="https://www.kristenboss.com/pivot-to-purpose/?el=podcastep106" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em> Pivot to Purpose: Leaving the Toxic Hustle Culture Behind</em></a>,&nbsp; you can <a href="https://www.kristenboss.com/pivot-to-purpose/?el=podcastep106" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> click here</a> and order your copy today.</p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://kristenboss.com/start-here/]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">4e563659-74cd-40a9-a8ab-b4536af9efe2</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/ca7eca1f-6a55-4765-b1df-354aacf7c498/KRISTEN-BOSS-5.png"/><pubDate>Mon, 09 May 2022 06:00:00 -0700</pubDate><enclosure url="https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/b955bf60-3651-4a6b-ad80-35f3b28b6e9f.mp3" length="40155116" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>41:50</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><podcast:season>1</podcast:season></item><item><title>105.

And as their caregivers, we too light up at the chance to share how proud we are of them.

I should post more, I should engage with more people. I need to hit the next rank, I need to create my systems. Have you ever noticed what feelings come up when you start with the shoulds and needs?

This week Kristen welcomes Leah and Kristi, two members of the Mastermind who are here to give a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s like to be a part of the most elite and exclusive Mastermind in network marketing.   And it all begins on day 1.

One will keep your business stagnant and you’ll be scrambling to keep up with your daily business and team’s needs.

Listen in as she talks about money, relationships, and having your own back.</p>  <p dir="ltr">Here’s a sneak peek:</p>  <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">How to keep your focus on the future when others try to detract from your growth</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Why it’s necessary to create new self-concepts over and over along the way</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The amazing shrinking Instagram account and how persistence led to success</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Learning to applaud yourself instead of waiting for others</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Coming to the realization that you are responsible for building self-belief</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Finding joy in the journey and not just the destination</p> </li> </ul><br/>  <p dir="ltr">Not everyone’s journey to success will look the same, but one truth is constant.

It’s no secret that as women become more successful in business, by contrast, their physical relationships often get put on the back burner.

The Big Mo</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Momentum in business can be defined as ‘the force that propels your business forward.’ At the beginning of the pandemic, many network marketers saw big booms in their sales and recruiting, which led to a belief that once everything went back to normal, they’d be back at square one. With no momentum in sight.</p> <p> </p> <p>Kristen is here to tell you that this is most definitely not the case. In this week’s episode, she talks about what it takes to create momentum and how to harness it into something that can launch you into the 6-figure earner’s bracket. </p> <p> </p> <p>Let’s dig into a few highlights:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to tell if you’re using your business as an emergency kit and the dangerous cycle that can create</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why believing an outside source is responsible for your success steals your power</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Kristen explains what the essential building blocks are to creating true momentum</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The (not so) secret to getting your momentum to carry over to your team</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why your messaging matters when recruiting, and how it can affect attrition</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>When you believe that your success happened by chance, you fuel the false narrative that you had nothing to do with it. The truth is that consistent messaging and commitment to your audience is what drove your success. Not a circumstance. Take the win, pat yourself on the back, and keep going.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening! Do you have a question about network marketing? Kristen can help!

With no momentum in sight.</p> <p> </p> <p>Kristen is here to tell you that this is most definitely not the case. In this week’s episode, she talks about what it takes to create momentum and how to harness it into something that can launch you into the 6-figure earner’s bracket. </p> <p> </p> <p>Let’s dig into a few highlights:</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How to tell if you’re using your business as an emergency kit and the dangerous cycle that can create</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why believing an outside source is responsible for your success steals your power</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Kristen explains what the essential building blocks are to creating true momentum</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The (not so) secret to getting your momentum to carry over to your team</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why your messaging matters when recruiting, and how it can affect attrition</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>When you believe that your success happened by chance, you fuel the false narrative that you had nothing to do with it. The truth is that consistent messaging and commitment to your audience is what drove your success. Not a circumstance. Take the win, pat yourself on the back, and keep going.</p> <p> </p> <p>Thanks for listening! Do you have a question about network marketing? Kristen can help!

But the numbers don’t create those feelings. </p> <p> </p> <p>Listen in as Kristen shares how we’re approaching the data in our lives in a way that isn’t serving us--regardless if the numbers are ‘good’ or ‘bad.’</p> <p> </p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Why humans hide from data and how that doesn’t serve us</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How the number on the scale is similar to the numbers in our business (social media metrics, back office numbers, points, volume, legs, etc.)</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Kristen shares how healing her story around the number on the scale is similar to how she healed her story about data around her business</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">What to do if you tend to panic or freak out when you check your bank statement or your back office report (or if you can’t bring yourself to check them in the first place)</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">How an unhealthy relationship with your data can breed hustle</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The first step to fix your thoughts around your data</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The best questions to shift into curiosity around your data</li> </ul><br/> <p> </p> <p>The data/numbers/metrics in your life don’t mean anything about you--they don’t make you less or more worthy of love or success. Learn how to neutralize the numbers in your life so that you can see what story they’re telling and then decide how you want to move forward with that information.</p> <p> </p> <p>If you’re ready to learn the simple process of running your social selling business online, you have to check out my live coaching program!</p> <p>The Social Selling Academy: <a href= "http://www.thesocialsellingacademy.com">www.thesocialsellingacademy.com</a></p> <p>Download the 3-Day training SUSTAINABLE SUCCESS for SOCIAL SELLERS where Kristen will be going to be giving you the exact tools you need to have success in today’s social selling landscape.

Kelsey is a six figure earner with her company and is known as the “Sourdough Mentor” on Instagram. Yes, she provides value and creates content around sourdough bread AND has a successful business that is completely unrelated to that, on the same Instagram account. And she does it without hustling.</p> <p> </p> <p>Kelsey wants people to know that you don’t have to be a super type-A, outgoing, extravert to build your business online.

Bonus Episode, Just Do The Thing!</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>How many times have you said, “when I achieve this, then I’ll pursue that?”  How many times have you put off your calling by waiting to take perfect action?</p> <p> </p> <p>In this very special bonus episode from the Becoming Boss archives is a never-before-heard recording of the first ever Purposeful Social Selling podcast. From the guest bedroom closet.
