I'm your host, Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success.
I recently polled my audience, and the response blew me away. Almost everyone said the same thing: “I feel disorganized and scattered.”
In this episode, I break down why that’s happening and exactly what to do about it.
You’ll learn how to map out your 5 and 10-year vision without needing a crystal ball, how to break those visions into tactical 12-week plans, and how to actually stick to them, even if you’ve struggled with structure in the past.
If you’re tired of spinning your wheels, chasing goals without clarity, and ending each day exhausted but unsatisfied, this episode will feel like an exhale.
Plus, I share the real reason most planning fails… and what to do instead.
🎯 In this episode:
-
The one thing high-achievers always skip (and why it matters)
-
How to use “work like you work out” to design your ideal day
-
The simplest way to break the perfectionism–procrastination cycle
