May 20 From Skeptic to Six Figures: How I Almost Missed the Business That Changed My Life

In this episode, Gen shares the origin story she's never told in full.

Topics covered:

Why high-achieving women hit the "is it worth it?" wall
The real reason Gen's six-figure business wasn't working
What she saw at that training event that changed everything
The math that made her finally take network marketing seriously
How she went from skeptic to top-level earner — and what she teaches now

May 06 Why You're Losing Business Builders Before They Ever Say Yes
If you've ever wondered why people watch everything you do and still never join your team, this episode is going to hit different.

Genevieve breaks down the two biggest mistakes network marketers make when trying to attract business builders, and neither one is about posting more or working harder.

You'll find out why the people most likely to join your team aren't the ones engaging with your content — and what they're quietly deciding every time they see you show up. You'll also find out why the most duplicatable thing you can do has nothing to do with your script, your system, or your upline's strategy.

If you're tired of getting people started only to have them ghost you 30 days later, there's a reason for that too — and it's fixable.

This is the conversation most people in network marketing never had, and it's the one that changes everything.

April 28Sugar, Fiber, and Grit: What This CEO Wants You to Know About Your Health
What does it take to build something from nothing when no one believed in you from the start?

Audrey Sommerfeld — CEO and founder of Jump2Health — grew up in a town of 200 people, was the first in her family to go to college, and was told women didn't need to. She was born with physical challenges, spent years in braces, and faced one of the lowest moments a person can face. She got back up.

In this episode, Audrey shares what actually fueled her — and what she's learned after decades in corporate nutrition, pharma, and now running her own health company — about what most of us are getting wrong with our health every single day.

In this episode:
Why sugar is your number one health enemy — and how much you're eating without knowing it
The fiber gap most Americans don't know they have (and what to do about it)
Why supplements can help, but can't save you from a bad diet
The three things Audrey says separate successful entrepreneurs from everyone else
Her philosophy on hearing "no" — and why it almost never means what you think
Audrey's mission is simple: help people reclaim their health through education, real ingredients, and small sustainable steps.

April 08The Conversation You're Not Having (And Why Your Best Builders Keep Leaving)
Your best business builder is still showing up on the calls. Still answering your texts. But they've stopped initiating. They rah-rah in the group chat but don't do anything with it. And then one day, seemingly out of nowhere, you get the message: "I just don't think this is right for me anymore."

It wasn't out of nowhere. It was the ending of a conversation you never had.

In this episode, Genevieve breaks down why retention is never a motivation problem — it's always a communication problem. And more specifically, it's one conversation most leaders have never been told they need to have.

You'll learn:
The exact behavioral signals that show up before a builder goes quiet for good
Why even great leaders accidentally create environments where struggle feels like failure
The three-part Honest Check-In framework — including the specific questions to ask, when to stop talking, and how to handle it when the conversation gets hard
This framework works whether you're leading a network marketing team, a commission-based sales floor, or an affiliate program. The psychology is universal and the fix is the same everywhere.

The free written framework — every question, the exact language, and how to handle the hard answers — is linked below.

April 02 The Weekly Practice That Builds Real Sales Confidence
Most salespeople are working harder than they need to — not because they lack the right tactics, but because they've never been taught to reset their identity week after week. In this episode, Genvieve walks you through a simple 10-minute Monday ritual. Four questions that clear out what's weighing you down and set you up to show up grounded, intentional, and confident all week long. No scripts. No hacks. Just the one practice that changes everything underneath the tactics.

March 31From Trunk Sales to 6,000 Stores: What Serial Entrepreneurs Know About Starting Again — with Susie Miller
Susie Miller went from selling cookies out of the trunk of her car to landing in over 6,000 stores nationwide — then watched someone else run her company into the ground. In this episode, Genevieve sits down with her longtime friend and fellow entrepreneur to talk about what it actually takes to keep going after something you built falls apart.

They cover the real grief of selling a business, why alignment with a partner is non-negotiable, and why "starting over" is the wrong frame entirely. If you're in a season of reinvention — or you know one is coming — this one's for you.

What comes up:
Building Among Friends Baking Mixes from trunk sales to Costco and Publix
What grief looks like when you sell a company you birthed
Why scrappy beats polished almost every time
How to build a life that makes room for all of who you are

March 25 Stop Calling It Rejection. Here's What's Actually Happening.
Every sales conversation you've been avoiding? It's not rejection you're scared of. It's something else entirely — and once you can name it, it loses most of its power.
In this episode, Genevieve breaks down the real mindset shift that separates leaders who show up consistently from those who stay stuck in their own heads. If you've ever talked yourself out of a conversation before you even started, this one's for you.
What we get into:
*Why the story you're telling yourself after a "no" is costing you more than the no itself
*The energy difference between wanting the sale and needing the sale
*How to show up in any sales conversation like someone who already won
Fix This. Grow Fast. is the podcast for women in network marketing and direct sales who are done with generic advice and ready to lead.

March 04You're Not Being Authentic. You're Being Passive. Here's the Difference
I can’t believe I’m saying this… but there’s ONE thing bro marketers get right that women in sales need to adopt immediately: lead the conversation.

If you’re always reacting—avoiding discomfort, saying “no pressure,” offering discounts, or letting prospects drift—you’re not being “nice.” You’re leaking sales out of your funnel and losing authority without realizing it.

In this episode, Genevieve breaks down:
Why leading = value (and reacting = lost trust)
How “no pressure” becomes passivity (and kills conversions)
What to say when someone asks for a discount or says “I need to think about it”
Why prospects actually expect you to guide them
The doctor analogy that will change how you see sales leadership
How to audit your last 5 sales conversations and spot where you gave up control
If you want consistent sales without hype, pressure, or pushiness—this is your next skill.

February 26 The Leadership Philosophy That Kept Her Business Growing for 25 Years
Do successful people ask themselves different questions? Are they more disciplined… or do they simply operate from a different kind of intention?
This week Genevieve Skory welcomes Nancy Bogart, CEO and founder of Jordan Essentials, for a grounded conversation about what long-term success actually looks like in direct sales.
Nancy shares her origin story: leaving her career to care for a son born with a severe birth defect, becoming a stay-at-home mom to three boys, and then inventing a lotion bar that unexpectedly took off at craft fairs in 1999. After selling out repeatedly and seeing others ask to help make and sell the product, she and her husband incorporated the business in 2000 — and 25 years later, the company continues to grow.
You’ll hear how Nancy thinks about boldness (including borrowing it from her mom), why desperation doesn’t create sustainable results, and how intention becomes a “line in the sand” that helps leaders stay above the noise. They also dive into personal inventory, values, uniqueness in leadership, and what to do when a company hits a downturn — including the importance of transparency, integrity, and staying long enough to actually learn the lesson.
Nancy also shares practical insights on relationships, leadership development, protecting your circle, and why “it always works out” is more than a catchphrase — it’s a mindset practice your brain listens to.
If you’ve been feeling stalled, doubting your next move, or wondering how real leaders stay steady through hard seasons, this episode will land.

February 10The Brutal Truth: You Might Not Be Coachable (Yet)
Genevieve uses the Olympics as a powerful business metaphor to call out a common trap: confusing busyness with progress.
Olympians spend years training in silence—repetition without applause—for one performance. They don’t hire coaches to keep them “busy.” They train to win, practice the hard parts, and measure results. Genevieve argues that many entrepreneurs do the opposite: they stay endlessly busy doing what they’re already comfortable with, avoid the numbers, avoid standards, and then wonder why results feel irregular.
This episode breaks down:
Why busyness can be avoidance in disguise
How “familiar strengths” protect your routines—and stop growth
What real coaching is (correction, standards, feedback) vs what it isn’t (babysitting, cheerleading, feel-good validation)
The difference between loyalty to effort vs loyalty to outcomes
Why standards reduce activity and increase results
How to tell if you’re coachable—and why coachability is the door to mastery
If you’re tired of working hard without the results to show for it, this episode will help you shift from “busy” to “training to win.”
