Kristen continues the conversation from last week, pulling back the curtain on her own pivot and exploring why making a change, even when it feels necessary, can be so terrifying. She unpacks why growth often feels like loss, why we cling to the familiar, and how the fear of letting go keeps us stuck in places we’ve outgrown.

Let’s look at a few highlights:

• Growth and grief often go hand in hand—letting go of what’s familiar can feel like a loss, even when we know it’s time for something new.
• We often hold on to what we’ve already invested in, whether it’s a belief, a job, or a relationship, because the fear of abandoning that energy feels overwhelming.
• The fear of inconsistency or betraying others can make us shrink ourselves to protect the peace, causing us to stay in situations that no longer align with our growth.

Kristen highlights that the discomfort we feel around growth is often a signal of progress. The fear of pivoting is normal, but it’s also a sign that we’re standing at the edge of something bigger. The real risk isn’t in the change itself, but in staying where we are, avoiding discomfort, and missing out on what’s possible.

Pivoting takes courage—and that’s exactly what we need to move forward.

It’s been a while since Kristen has given an update, and a lot has changed. She’s usually the one sharing stories of client successes and business wins, but today, she’s turning the focus inward. The past year has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows, forcing her to confront burnout, grapple with a loss of identity, and ultimately make a massive pivot.

Kristen began noticing changes in her business long before she was ready to acknowledge them. She was seeing incredible transformations with her clients—families healing, individuals gaining clarity. It was the kind of impact she had dreamed of making. Yet, she found herself questioning, “Is this enough? What is this doing for my business?”

What started as a quiet discomfort grew into full-blown burnout—a complete breakdown she never saw coming. For a while, Kristen did what most of us do—she kept going, pretending everything was fine. She didn’t want anyone to see that she was struggling.

This pivot isn’t just about business; it’s personal. Kristen realized that the burnout, the breakdown, was her body’s way of telling her she was living out of alignment. She started focusing on her mental health, her family, and her own wellbeing. She’s learning to redefine success.

If you’re feeling that pull, that sense that something needs to change, you’re not alone. Kristen’s journey is proof that it’s okay to pivot, to step back, and to realign with what truly matters. Stay tuned for part two.

In the social selling industry, consistency is often the deciding factor between success and struggle. Yet, many sellers find themselves caught in a cycle of reactive habits, only springing into action during a crisis.

In a recent coaching session with some of her top six and seven-figure earners, Kristen unpacked these challenges and provided actionable insights to help sellers overcome the obstacles to consistency and build a thriving business.

Let’s look at a few highlights:

• Kristen highlighted why many sellers struggle to stay consistent, noting the tendency to only take action during a crisis, which creates a cycle of unhealthy momentum.
• She discussed how both activity and inactivity in this business accumulate over time, with delayed results that make it easy to fall into complacency.
• The conversation also covered the importance of creating and maintaining momentum, especially during sprints, and how sometimes your team needs that extra push to keep moving forward.

Consistency in social selling isn't just about reacting when problems show up—it's about creating and maintaining habits that drive ongoing success. Kristen’s coaching session showed that real success comes from being proactive, simplifying your approach, and keeping your team engaged. Ask yourself what success looks like for you right now and align your actions with that vision.
