Your Childhood Might Be Affecting Your Sales

from Mind Over Money Podcast · host Jessen James

What if your childhood is quietly influencing how you sell today? In this episode, Jessen explores how rejection, conflict, and the need to feel accepted can shape your behaviour in sales and negotiations, and why understanding these patterns could be the first step toward changing your results. Key Takeaways: Learn how to recognise when old patterns are showing up in your sales conversations. Jessen explains why awareness matters, how fear of rejection can stop you from asking for the sale, and how sitting with discomfort can help you respond differently instead of repeating familiar behaviours. Highlights: Jessen breaks down the idea of the “wounded child” and how it can influence confidence, pricing conversations, and handling resistance. He also shares why professionals need to understand what is happening beneath the surface—not just rely on scripts or sales techniques—to create better conversations and close more deals. Listen to the full episode.
