If It’s Not a “Hell Yes!” It’s Not a Yes At All

In this episode, Jennie discusses:

  • The difference between a “yes” and a “hell yes”
  • Saying “hell yes” to your dreams 
  • How saying “hell yes” can affect your life and career 
  • Commitment, confidence, and passion

Key Takeaways:

  • Let your “hell yes” be louder than your fears and doubts 
  • Start by saying hell yes – going all in – to your dreams, your family and your self. 
  • You need to know what’s going to make people say “hell yes”. A timid yes can become a hell yes, and it starts with you. 
  • Confidence in yourself is what makes you badass enough to get a “hell yes”. 

“Are you someone that you would say ‘hell yes’ to? If not, why not? Don’t let fear being seen as ‘talky’ hold you back. People prefer confidence.” —  Jennie Bellinger

Mimi Maclean – Run Your Life like a Badass CEO

This episode is sponsored by VidYard. Go set up your complimentary VidYard account at https://vidyard.com/badass

 

About Mimi Maclean: She’s a serial entrepreneur, a business school grad, a CPA, an angel investor and a host of the Badass CEO Podcast. She started the Badass CEO Podcast to share everything she learned from investing in successful companies and from working with incredible female founders. Through their courses, blog, and podcast, you can learn excellent business strategies, how to persevere through struggles and what it takes to start and run a company. Straight from women who have disrupted industries and turned opportunities into wins. 

 

In this episode, Jennie and Mimi Maclean discuss:

  • The similarities between direct sales and traditional business management
  • Struggles and challenges you will encounter when doing direct-sales
  • Dealing with rejection and maximizing results with good mindset techniques
  • Wearing different hats and juggling priorities

 

Key Takeaways:

  • People can see through you when you’re selling your product, that’s why you have to genuinely believe in your product. 
  • Sales is a numbers game. If you want to have one client, you have to ask ten people. 
  • Don’t be afraid to ask people that you hold less or no expectations of. Count the “no’s” instead of the “yes’s” – set a goal of 100 no’s per month. 
  • When setting up your priorities, don’t neglect family – structure your life in a way where you can be productive at work and able to spend time with your loved ones. 

 

“You have to have that passion for your product and if you don’t have that then you’re not selling the right thing.” —  Mimi Maclean

Ready, Aim, Aim, Aim

In this episode, Jennie discusses:

  • Why we keep waiting for the “right thing” and how it can hold us back
  • Perfectionism: the fear of making a mistake 
  • Getting over the fear of what people will think 
  • Misconception about hearing no and why you don’t have to fear it

Key Takeaways:

  • Fear is holding you back but you’re stronger than you think. 
  • Think about all the things you’ve gone through and how you’ve won whenever you’re doubting yourself. 
  • We make mistakes, but we learn best from our mistakes. Feel free to screw up. 
  • Hearing “no” won’t kill you. It might hurt, but it gives you freedom to find the ideal person instead of wasting your time on someone who’s not into it. Celebrate the no’s.  
  • Just do something. Feel the fear and do it anyway. 

“We often bask in the success without looking at what made it possible. Whereas, when we fall and when we fail, we tend to review what happened to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it before it happens again.” —  Jennie Bellinger

Holly Cervini : From Funk to Fantastic

About Holly Cervini: She is passionate about supporting an underserved segment of the business world, our overburdened senior leaders, in how they lead and how they live. These high achievers appear to be getting along swimmingly and yet are often treading water furiously and perilously beneath the surface, gradually sinking over time. Those she serves are under so much unhealthy stress that they dread going to work and their physical and mental health is suffering. Holly coaches them to avoid burnout by recalibrating their priorities and renewing their sense of well-being so that they can become heroes of their organizations. She works for an executive coaching organization and is also a functional medicine health coaching scholar. 

In this episode, Jennie and Holly Cervini discuss:

  • The true meaning of “coaching” and how to help people experience well-being
  • What are Positive Emotional Attractors and Negative Emotional Attractors – scientifically proven to be real and common to each of us
  • How you can hack your brain and motivate yourself by organizing your thoughts into two categories of PEA and NEA, and feeding your mind with PEA
  • The difference between intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation and which one is better 

Key Takeaways:

  • Both Positive and Negative Emotional Attractors are essential – 
  • Our vision has to be grounded in our Positive emotional attractors, in order for us to have an enduring, long-term motivation to change. 
  • We have to spend disproportionately more time in positive than negative emotional attractors. Give five positive feedback for every one negative criticism, both to others and yourself. 
  • There’s nothing wrong with extrinsic motivation, but you can’t completely rely on it – intrinsic motivation is more effective and lasts long-term  

     

“In our own minds, we want to be always bolstering positivity, bolstering the vision, the “what if” and what’s resonating.. .” —  Holly Cervini
