"Nobody was born knowing how to sell" - In this powerful conversation with Kat Mak (business & sales coach, and author), we dive deep into the real reason your ‘authentic’ sales approach might be falling flat.

Cat shares her journey, including a painful wake-up call that transformed her entire approach to business and life.

We explore:

  • Why spamming DMs will never work (and what to do instead)
  • How to recognize the early warning signs of burnout before it's too late
  • The surprising truth about selling products you don't personally use. 
  • The exact conversation framework Kat learned watching her father at markets that still drives sales today

This episode is packed with actionable insights on building genuine connections, avoiding the "crap trap" of overwhelming to-do lists, and why saying yes to yourself might be the most profitable decision you'll ever make.
