There’s a moment almost every network marketer hits… When the spark fades. The excitement feels heavy. And you quietly wonder, “Is it just me… or am I falling out of love with this?” In this episode of The Ambition Coalition, Rebekah and Melissa get real about what it looks like to fall back in love with network marketing—not through hype, pressure, or pretending everything is perfect, but through ownership, maturity, and alignment.   We talk about the seasons where the business feels boring, frustrating, or disconnected… and why those moments don’t mean you’re...

So many women think they’re stuck because they don’t know what to do.   But most of the time, that’s not the real issue.   In this episode, Melissa and Rebekah unpack why action breaks down after the plan is made — and why hesitation, overthinking, and waiting often have nothing to do with laziness or lack of discipline.   They talk honestly about: -Why action has quietly become conditional -How emotions like confusion, overwhelm, and self-doubt derail momentum -Why self-trust, not motivation, is the real driver of consistency -How small, uncomfortable decisions shape...

2020 brought explosive growth to so many businesses...including ours, but it also quietly wiped out the one thing that makes network marketing sustainable: real, in-person community.   In today’s episode, we’re unpacking what business looked like before 2020, how everything shifted online overnight, why it took YEARS for leaders to return to in-person gatherings, and the surprising reason many women are still hiding behind screens without realizing it.   If you’ve felt stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to rebuild momentum in this “post-Zoom” world, this conversation is...

When you understand the root, you stop guessing — and you start leading with confidence, clarity, and calm.   🌟 In This Episode, We Cover: • The three true root causes behind...
