    Sales Is a Skill, Not a Personality Trait_ Pricing, Confidence & Profit with Katrina Sawa.wav

    Sales doesn’t have a personality type — and it definitely doesn’t require being pushy, manipulative, or “good at convincing people.”But avoiding sales will quietly sabotage even the most talented entrepreneurs.In this episode of The Wealthy CEO Lab® Podcast, Giovana sits down with Katrina Sawa, a business coach, sales strategist, and entrepreneur with over 23 years of experience, to dismantle the biggest myths around selling, pricing, and confidence in business.Katrina shares how her early career in advertising sales revealed a massive gap: business owners didn’t just need visibility — they needed to know how to convert, price, and value what they offered. That realization led her to build a business centered on teaching entrepreneurs how to sell with integrity, clarity, and confidence.Together, Giovana and Katrina explore why sales resistance is so common (especially in service-based and transformational businesses), how underpricing erodes both profit and credibility, and why pricing must be rooted in the value of transformation, not fear or comparison.This conversation is a must-listen if you’ve ever struggled with selling your services, raising your prices, or owning the value of what you bring to the table.In this episode, we cover:Why sales is a learnable skill — not something you’re either born with or notThe real reason entrepreneurs resist selling (and how to move through it)How undercharging impacts positioning, confidence, and long-term sustainabilityPricing based on transformation, not hours or insecurityThe psychology behind confident pricing and buyer trustWhy energetic alignment matters when setting your pricesHow to build sales confidence without becoming someone you’re notTimestamps00:32 The Journey to Entrepreneurship02:28 Challenges and Lessons in Sales04:13 Mindset and Strategies for Sales Success09:00 Pricing Strategies and Positioning13:14 ales and ConfidenceConnect with Katrinahttps://jumpstartyourbiznow.com/https://jumpstartpublishing.net/🖤 If you loved this episodeSubscribe, leave a review, and share it with a fellow founder who’s ready to scale with purpose, pleasure, and peace.Resources & Next Steps👉 Take the Nervous System Mood Ring Quiz: discover your current regulation state and get personalized tools to make smarter money decisions.👉Join The Wealth Frequencies Program: a 10-week experience blending breathwork, nervous system regulation, and wealth embodiment.👉 Work with Giovana: for hands-on support to scale your business with calm clarity and profit rooted in peace.👉 Follow Giovana on Instagram

    Choosing Joy on Purpose: Nervous System Regulation and High-Vibration Leadership with Angèle Lamothe

    Reclaiming Your Wellbeing: Integrating Mental Health, Yoga, and Boundaries with Denise Alba

    In this episode of The Wealthy CEO Lab®, we explore what it truly means to reclaim your wellbeing as an entrepreneur and a leader.Host Giovana Bier sits down with Denise Alba—Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, yoga educator, proud Latina entrepreneur, and founder of BRAVE Wellness Studio, San Diego’s first mental-health-centered wellness studio. Recognized by HipLatina as one of the “Top 9 Latinx Wellness Retreats,” BRAVE is a sanctuary where psychotherapy, yoga, and community come together to nurture healing.Denise shares her personal story of transforming anxiety into alignment through talk therapy and movement, and how that journey inspired her to create a space for holistic healing. Together, Giovana and Denise unpack how stress and burnout manifest in the body, how attachment patterns influence our drive to overperform, and the importance of listening to your body before it forces you to stop.This conversation invites you to slow down, build compassionate awareness, and set boundaries that honor both your ambition and your wellbeing. Because wealth isn’t built on adrenaline—it’s built on safety.💎 Key TakeawaysYour body is speaking: Burnout often begins with subtle signals—irritability, headaches, appetite shifts, or fatigue. Awareness is the first act of regulation.Boundaries are a practice: Flexible boundaries (like bamboo, not brick walls) help sustain relationships and energy.Reparenting heals patterns: Many of our overfunctioning tendencies stem from what wasn’t modeled in childhood. Healing means learning new, safer ways to self-soothe and lead.Rest is revolutionary: True productivity begins when we stop celebrating self-sacrifice and start modeling regulation and rest.Community co-regulates: Connection—whether through therapy, friendship, or collective spaces like BRAVE—helps bring the nervous system back into safety.🕰️ Timestamps00:17 — Meet Denise Alba: Founder of BRAVE Wellness Studio02:13 — Integrating yoga, therapy, and community into mental health04:48 — Recognizing the hidden signs of burnout08:05 — Boundaries, self-awareness, and nervous system cues23:50 — Reparenting and breaking generational patterns27:53 — Advice to younger entrepreneurs and closing reflections29:39 — Actionable steps to reconnect with your body🧠 CEO TakeawayYour body is your business plan.
