S3, Ep 23: Selling as an Introvert: Finding Your Way Without the Hard Sell

Sensitive Change Makers · 2025-05-19

Selling used to feel really uncomfortable for me—especially as a highly sensitive introvert. I tried the typical sales tactics and “bro marketing” strategies, and quickly realised they didn’t work for me… or for my energy.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I’ve redefined selling in a way that feels authentic, grounded, and sustainable. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to align your business with who you truly are, I hope this conversation gives you permission to do things differently.

Here’s what I cover:

Why traditional sales methods never sat right with me—and what I tried insteadThe key mindset shifts that helped me stop performing and start connectingHow I use content to take the pressure off sales conversationsThe difference between free sessions and discovery calls (and how I use both)Why honouring my energy cycles has been crucial to sustainable sellingThe simple funnel that helped me grow my business organically

If selling has ever felt icky, overwhelming, or just not you, this episode will help you find a new way forward—on your own terms.

I’d love to hear what resonates. Feel free to reach out and let me know your takeaways!
