In this episode of More Than Marketing, we’re diving deep into the mindset, energetics, and real-world strategy behind selling — minus the sleaze, pressure, and outdated corporate scripts.

I’m joined by the brilliant and straight-talking Helen Tebay — The Sales Lady, who is famous for helping service-based business owners step into their expertise, sell with confidence, and create offers they fully believe in (and that clients love to buy).

We talk about:
 ✨ Why so many female entrepreneurs feel “sticky” about selling
 ✨ How childhood conditioning + corporate sales culture mess with your confidence
 ✨ The uncomfortable truth: you must believe your offer is the best thing since sliced bread
✨ What really creates a “yes” — and why it’s not your pitch deck
✨ How to make decisions (and stick to them!) so you stop flip-flopping your offers
✨ The psychology behind objections — and how to actually explore them
✨ Why your work is too important to hide behind fear, doubt, or undercharging

This isn’t another chat about sales scripts.
 This is about grounding your confidence, owning your expertise, and understanding how to lead powerful conversations that serve your clients and grow your business.

If you’ve ever worried about feeling pushy, cringey, or “too much,” this episode will rewire everything you’ve been taught about selling.
