Fix This, Grow Fast episodes

November 25, 2025Four Steps for a Calm, Confident 2026 Plan
This episode is your calm-confidence blueprint for 2026. Instead of chasing speed or moving the goalposts, Genevieve shares four practical steps—rooted in an ultramarathoner’s mindset—to plan sustainably and sell with certainty.
You’ll learn:
Reframe winning: Trade vague or far-off goals for daily, controllable wins (e.g., “3–5 meaningful conversations”).
Upgrade yourself: Expand capacity (skills, support, steady pace) rather than shrinking your dreams.
Success by subtraction: Offload outdated strategies, guilt, and ego to make room for what works.
Re-evaluate your why (quarterly): Avoid adopting other people’s values; reconnect to what truly matters.
Quote to remember
“Judgment shuts everything down. Appreciation creates action.”

November 17, 2025Four Steps to Master Customer Connection
Genevieve shares the infamous “talking to the trash can” story to illustrate how connection—not tactics—wins in a low-trust, high-noise world. Then she breaks down four practical steps any seller can use today.
What you’ll learn
Pay attention: Single-task your conversations; know your lines before you need them.
Lead with a relatable story: Aim at a real problem and self-limiting belief (problem → guide → plan → change).
Be honest, not impressive: “Credibility lands best inside real human moments.”
Close with conviction: Make a clear, caring invitation—and follow through.

November 11, 20255 Modern Sales Shifts to Replace Outdated Advice (and Actually Convert)
You’re not bad at sales—you’re following outdated rules. In this episode, Genevieve contrasts two real restaurant experiences to show why energy, presence, and connection beat tactics every time, then walks through five practical moves for modern, savvy sellers.
What you’ll learn:
See the person, not the purchase (start with appreciation and recognition)
Ask intent-revealing questions (lead to clarity, not pressure)
Match their pace and raise your energy (create certainty, don’t perform)
Offer a small next step (reduce friction; right-size the commitment)
Follow through with care (loyalty, referrals, and long-term revenue)
Quote to remember:
“Enthusiasm isn’t a bonus—it’s the new baseline.”
