October 07 Jazzy’s Picks: Stop Bullying Yourself with Bruce Langford
Episode Description
While Jennie is busy getting married, Jazzy—the woman working behind the scenes to help make Badass Direct Sales Mastery happen—is taking over the podcast feed!
Throughout October, Jazzy is bringing back four episodes that made a lasting impact on her life.
First up is Bruce Langford.
This episode helped Jazzy recognize something most of us don't think about often enough: sometimes the biggest bully in our lives is the voice inside our own heads.
Bruce's lessons on mindfulness, gratitude, meditation, and paying attention to your internal dialogue didn't just stick with Jazzy—she actually put them into practice. Years later, some of those lessons are still part of her daily life.

The Top Three Things Jazzy Learned From Bruce Langford
1. Pay attention to how you talk to yourself.
Negative self-talk can become so normal that we don't even recognize we're doing it. Learning to notice those thoughts is the first step toward changing them.
2. Mindfulness can interrupt the cycle.
Instead of automatically believing every negative thought that enters your mind, mindfulness gives you an opportunity to recognize it, slow down, and respond differently.
3. Start your day with gratitude.
Taking time to intentionally recognize the good in your life can completely change the way you approach your day.
How Jazzy Implemented the Lessons in This Episode
Jazzy didn't just listen to Bruce and move on.
She signed up for the seven-day trial Bruce offered and used it to learn how to meditate. She also began keeping a gratitude journal every morning—a practice she continues and credits with changing her life.
The episode also reinforced something else she tries to practice regularly: looking for small opportunities to help other people, whether that's through her time, money, skills, or services.
Jazzy's Favorite Quote
“What's happening in your mind? What are you saying to yourself? What are you allowing yourself to think about yourself?” — Bruce Langford

September 28Badass Rewind with Jill Ludington: Making A Difference With Love
In this episode, Jennie and Jill discuss:
The “why” that got Jill into direct sales and the decision to take it seriously as a business that spurred her success.

Getting beyond the soft market of family and friends and finding a team who are interested in their own success and willing to do the work it takes.

The blessings and surprises from focusing more on service than sales during COVID-19.

The importance of taking advantage of opportunities for training and growth for yourself and your team.

Key Takeaways:
Being grounded in your “why” helps keep you focused and drives your path to success.

Someone out there wants and or needs what you are selling, don’t get stuck on the ones who don’t.

Providing customer service that goes above and beyond brings rewards on not just a monetary level, but also on a deeper level of connection and purpose.

Success requires consistency and constant striving to grow and improve.

"The biggest thing that I have told myself through all this is that I've got to give myself grace. And I also have to trust my ability in what I do as a consultant and a human being and providing excellent customer service. And again, going back to my why, which is helping people within and beyond the walls of my home. And as long as I'm staying true to that objective, and staying true to me, I know that this is all going to come back and come back to me whether it's monetarily or not." — Jill Ludington

About Jill Ludington: I am passionate about helping others feel confident and loved in their own skin. I help others just BE YOU through empowering with education and knowledge in theatre, open and affirming the LGBT+ community, and skincare. My mission is to make a difference in and beyond the walls of my home with love.

September 21Badass Rewind with Donnie Boivin: From Chump To Champ
In this episode, Jennie and Donnie discuss:
How Donnie walked away from a huge salary at a multi-million dollar company to follow his own dreams.

Figuring out how to switch from operating as an employee to operating as a business owner.

How being a guest on a podcast started a chain reaction that changed everything.

Accepting the inevitability of things going wrong, and learning and growing from it

Key Takeaways:
Follow your own dreams, not someone else’s!

It’s your business, you are the one who needs to lay all the groundwork.

Shit is gonna break, you just have to figure it out and keep going.

Have a vision bigger than yourself. Fight as if you don’t care if you live or die. Step into your fear.

"If something's good It's the fucking universe saying go that damn direction. Because it's not about overcoming the fear. It's about who the fuck you become going through it. Yeah, it's about evolving into the next level yourself. And that's probably the biggest lesson I've learned in running a business." — Donnie Boivin

September 14Badass Rewind with McKinley Oswald: The Tech You've Been Wishing For
In this episode, Jennie and McKinley discuss:
An essential companion for business

Technology should be easy

Gamifying to create habits

Connecting to your team
Key Takeaways:
Technology has been business leaders’ constant companion, it’s a great tool for training and communications. Growing your business will mean that you embrace growing technologies.

New technology shouldn’t have to require a Ph.D. to operate, it has to be approachable and easily operable for it to be effective.

Gamifying difficult or repetitive tasks is a good way to create and sustain good habits.

Being connected to your team, being present in their milestones, and following up on each new success is essential on growing your team and your business as a whole

"The tools had to do the work… they allow the individual to become the messenger and not have to be the message." — McKinley Oswald

About McKinley Oswald:
For the past 25 years, McKinley Oswald has been heavily involved in working with direct sales companies and industry leaders to help them achieve success. His full-time contributions at Verb began after graduating from the University of Utah in 1998 when he became involved in the culture and direction of Sound Concepts (the company that was acquired by Verb in 2019). Although it originally started with kit assembly and cassette duplication, the company has now progressed far beyond that to offer a diverse lineup of sales-enablement tools and marketing services on the Verb digital platform. In his role as President of Direct Sales, McKinley has worked with hundreds of direct sales companies to help enable their field to succeed.

September 07Badass Rewind with Mark Victor Hansen: ASK to GET
In this episode, Jennie and Mark Victor discuss:
The story behind their written book about asking

Increasing your network of contacts

The effective way of asking

Supporting a cause through your business
Key Takeaways:
There is no harm in asking. Learning and practicing the art of asking can help you turn your dreams into reality.

To keep your network of contacts growing, you must first figure out what you want and who you're going to talk to, then visualize the story of showing your intention as well as your expectation of a positive response from them.

You have to ask yourself, ask others, and ask God. Asking yourself positive questions will yield positive results.

Support charities or social causes that are close to your heart. Giving back not only helps you grow your business, but it also touches the lives of others, inspiring them to do the same and make a difference.
"Everybody's got a destiny code from the minute you were born. Your job is to find it." – Mark Victor Hansen
About Mark Victor Hansen:
Along with business partner Jack Canfield, Hansen is best known for creating what Time magazine called “the publishing phenomenon of the decade”. Chicken Soup for the Soul books is one of the most successful publishing franchises in the world today, with more than 500 million books sold internationally and more than 100 licensed products. The name “Chicken Soup” was chosen because of the use of chicken soup as a home remedy for the sick. The first Chicken Soup book, published by Health Communications, Inc., sold more than 2 million copies. There are now over 500 million copies in print and in 54 languages worldwide.
In 2004 Hansen was inducted into the Sales & Marketing Executive International’s Hall of Fame, receiving the Ambassador of Free Enterprise award. He also received the 2004 Visionary Philanthropist for Youth Award by Covenant House of CA.
In 2002 The University of Toledo presented Hansen with an Honorary Ph.D. in Business Administration and established the Mark Victor Hansen Entrepreneurial Excellence Fund that will help shape the minds of future business leaders and assist in the development of the faculty who will teach them.
In 2000 The Horatio Alger Association of Distinguished Americans honored Hansen with the
prestigious Horatio Alger Award as an American leader who personifies the virtues and principles inherent in the success stories written by nineteenth-century American author Horatio Alger Jr.
In 2000 Northwood University honored Hansen as the Outstanding Business Leader of the Year. Seeing the desire on everyone’s bucket list to write a book and their profound destiny to help, Crystal and Mark created a publishing company called: markvictorhansenlibrary.com

August 10Badass Rewind with Luisa Cunha: I Just Started Sharing It With My Friends
About Luisa Cunha: She is a therapist and she specializes in Aromatherapy. She gives training with Aromatherapy for all women who want to find their physical, emotional, and spiritual balance through essential oils.

In this episode, Jennie and Luisa discuss:
Developing new skills by learning from others

All businesses have bad days

What to do when you feel like giving up

Business that transcends just you

Key Takeaways:
Learn from other entrepreneurs, get out of your comfort zone and expose yourself to, practice, and learn one of people’s top fears: public speaking.

All businesses have bad days. It’s important to keep going, keep your focus, and be positive, especially on those days. Know that those days give us perspective and build strength.

When you feel like giving up, take some time for self-care. Drink some wine, take a bath, and relax. Talk about it tomorrow.

We have to keep going if we want to help people more. If we go out of business, there’s a bunch of people that are not going to get the help that we’re going to provide.

"We can grow as entrepreneurs, we win and we give to others too. It’s a giver’s game." — Luisa Cunha

August 03Jennie Bellinger: 100,000 Downloads and 4 Lessons That Changed Everything
What if 100,000 downloads were just the foundation, not the finish line? In this milestone episode, you’ll hear the real story behind a #1 network marketing podcast, the BDSM framework that built it, and how to use the same momentum-building principles to grow your own business.

In this episode, Jennie discusses:
Origin story of the Badass Direct Sales Mastery podcast

Overcoming fear and starting without a perfect plan

Listener stories, client journeys, and real-world impact

The BDSM framework: Business mindset, Discipline, Sales, Mentorship

100,000 downloads, legacy, and the 100k Gifts Page

Key Takeaways:
You can’t build momentum in your business if you’re standing still; progress demands action, even when the plan isn’t perfect.

Treating your direct sales or network marketing business like a real business, not a hobby or “side gig”, changes how you show up and what results you create.

Consistency and discipline, not motivation, are what carry a long-term content platform through the hard days and into meaningful milestones.

A podcast or platform can function as a powerful ecosystem—driving sales, nurturing relationships, attracting clients, and creating referral and JV opportunities.

Mentorship (giving and receiving) accelerates growth, and every authentic conversation can leave success “clues” that reshape how you sell, lead, and build.

"100,000 downloads isn't my accomplishment; it's ours." — Jennie Bellinger

July 27Badass Rewind with Kim Benoy: Facing Midlife with Courage
About Kim Benoy: She is a mom, a wife, and a registered nurse who found a passion for inspiring others using essential oils and her voice as a podcast host. She helps women 40 and over find their courage, confidence, and calm by helping them clear out what's holding them back.

In this episode, Jennie and Kim discuss:
The biggest win in business

The best way to convince others

Integrating passion into your business

How to build confidence

Key Takeaways:
The biggest win in this business is helping people. Having a large customer base is visible and tangible proof that you’re helping a lot of people.

There are a lot of people who have negative views about network marketing and the best way to enlighten them about the good things about this business is not through argument, but through your actions - by continuing to help people and by succeeding together.

Whatever it is you are passionate about or gets you up in the morning, integrate that into your business. This will make your work more fun, motivating, and life-giving.

To take courage means to first experience fear. Out of that courage will you be able to build your confidence.

"Starting on that journey to be more courageous and confident, that starts in your own head.." — Kim Benoy

Erica lives in Northern California with her husband, Steve, and a garden of lavender that soothes her soul.

In this episode, Jennie Bellinger and Erica Ross-Krieger discuss:
Recognizing and celebrating small wins

Shifting from fear-based to love-based decision making

Identifying and challenging internal saboteurs

Staying present and coming to your senses

Potential collaboration between Jennie and Erica

Key Takeaways:
Catching and celebrating small wins, even a simple fist pump, can be a powerful way to shift your mindset from fear to love.

Becoming aware of your inner saboteurs, such as the "judge," is the first step to overcoming them, and rather than judging yourself for these negative thought patterns, approach them with curiosity and compassion, and actively work to replace them with more empowering beliefs.

By consciously shifting your attention to your senses and the immediate experience, you can short-circuit the fear response and access your more resourceful, "sage" state of mind.

Combine practical business strategies, such as 90-day goal-setting, with emotional intelligence work, as it can be a powerful formula for sustainable success.

The synergy between Jennie's direct sales expertise and Erica's Positive Intelligence coaching suggests an exciting potential combination.

"The Zen theory of change. I free myself not by trying to free myself, but by simply noticing how I imprison myself.” — Erica Ross-Krieger
