Descripción

In this episode of Other Ambitions, we're unpacking a topic that so many entrepreneurs, creatives, and even seasoned businesswomen struggle with: Why does selling feel so scary? Whether you're pitching your service, promoting your offer, or simply asking for the sale, that uncomfortable knot in your stomach isn't uncommon—and you're definitely not alone. We're diving into the real reasons selling feels intimidating, from the fear of rejection and imposter syndrome, to not wanting to seem "pushy" or being too emotionally attached to the outcome. We'll share our own stories of selling fears (yes, even as successful business owners!), what we've learned from pushing through the discomfort, and how reframing sales as service completely changed the game. If you've ever hesitated to hit "send" on a follow-up message or stumbled over your words in a pitch, this episode is for you.

The Next Chapter: Amber Wong on Leadership, Limitless Vision & Leaps of Faith

In this episode, we sit down with our friend Amber Wong of Rockstar Workforce to talk about her bold career pivot, building a thriving business with her husband, and raising a family with deep intentionality. Amber shares how she and her husband manage the balance of entrepreneurship, parenting, and personal growth - all while staying rooted in their values. Amber also opens up about a huge milestone - they just finished co-authoring their first book, which dives into leadership, mindset, and strategies that Rockstar Workforce is built upon. She gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what inspired the book, how they wrote it together while juggling life and business, and what they hope readers will take away from it. We also chat about their upcoming move to Tennessee for a new family adventure and Amber's upcoming expansion into the more creative side of her work. Her story is one of courage, vision, and intentional living. You don't want to miss this!
