Listen Later

Mercy Bell, Executive Producer of the global wellness event Sober Voices, joins Ashleigh and Ryan to talk about turning trauma into your superpower, saving time for yourself, and how to find the right mentor.

SHOW NOTES

Early Trauma

-Trauma experienced early on in life can be harnessed and transformed into a superpower. Mercy developed hypervigilance during her childhood and is now able to use that to observe to bring success.

Duality

-The ability to work hard must be balanced with the ability to slow down. You have to know how to manage your time and resources.

Her Sales Journey

-Mercy started her sales career at 17 when she arrived at Stanford and began working in the call center.

-Though the no’s she received bothered her slightly, she enjoyed fostering meaningful conversations with the few alumni that cared.

Mentors

-The prospecting that is applied to sales can be applied to finding a mentor. You always need people inside and outside of your industry who will support and understand you.
