QUOTES

Jeff: “I started to realize that anxiety and sales are not optional. It's really part of everyday life, and when teams start to become anxious, depressed and burnt out, their performance really starts to suffer.”

Jeff: “Salespeople are corporate athletes and need to help them provide them with tools to help them navigate these unique stresses in sales in a mentally healthy way.”

Jeff: “I always say sort of the mental health strategy that too many sales organizations implement is Having a really fun drinking culture as a way to kind of blow off steam. But that really just perpetuates the ability to take care of yourself and lean into what these emotions are trying to tell you and sort through them in a healthy way.”

Jeff: “Many people are still defining mental health using a definition closer to mental illness, where mental health is, in fact, the spectrum of well being that we fluctuate along, based on what's happening in our internal environment, like our thoughts, feelings, and emotions, as well as our external environment.”

Jeff: “No one's immune to it, and leaders kind of overcome that vulnerability, vulnerability paradox, they absolutely need to share first to create that safe space and it doesn't happen in one massive swing, like leading a wellness initiative or bringing me in to kind of leave a little one hour session with your team.”
