My Story

About Me

I Didn't Start in B2B Sales

I started in retail. Not because I loved it. Not because it was my passion. But because it was what I could get with the schedule I needed.

Before any of this, I was working 12 to 13 hour shifts. Long days. Long commutes. I'd get off work and take public transportation home, and by the time I got there it was close to midnight. My son would sometimes spend the night at the babysitter's house—not because I wanted it that way, but because dragging him out into the cold at that hour just to bring him home for a few hours of sleep before I had to be back at work felt worse than the alternative.

I was barely seeing my kid. I'd work all day, come home exhausted, and do it again. That was the reality. Not dramatic. Just hard in that quiet, persistent way that wears you down over time.

I didn't have a plan. I didn't have a vision board or a five-year goal. I just knew that the life I was living—the hours, the exhaustion, the time away from my son—wasn't sustainable. I knew I was capable of more. I just didn't know what "more" looked like or how to get there.

The Call That Changed Everything

I came across a posting for a customer service role at a company that sold prefabricated structure solutions—and at the time, I didn't even really know what that meant. The role didn't promise flexibility. It didn't promise anything extraordinary. I applied the same way I applied to everything else—because you never know.

I got the call.

I started in customer service and grew into sales within about a year. When the hiring manager asked me about B2B experience, I was honest: I had about five years of B2C retail sales experience, but zero corporate or B2B background. I was used to selling to moms, teens, brides-to-be—emotional, personal dynamics. I had never sold to businesses or corporate stakeholders.

I told them I had only done B2C, that I'm a fast learner, and that I was confident I could provide the level of service they needed. I connected my skillset to both my professional and personal history—how years of navigating those emotional, high-stakes conversations had given me the listening, empathy, and problem-solving abilities that B2B demanded.

What Actually Happened

They gave me a shot. And I got to work.

I'm not going to sugarcoat it. The first three months were hard. I felt like I didn't know what I was doing. I talked too much on calls. I took every "no" personally. I compared myself to the other reps who seemed to have it all figured out.

I was a woman in an industry dominated by men, coming from B2C retail, with no business degree, no network, and no idea how the B2B world worked. What I had was the ability to listen, to ask questions, and to actually care about solving problems—even when I didn't realize those were skills.

And here's what I learned: That was enough. More than enough.

People remembered me.

Not because I fit the mold. But because I didn't. Clients would call back and ask for "the woman who helped us last time." I stood out. And once I stopped seeing that as a disadvantage and started using it to my benefit, everything shifted.

I'm still at the same company. I'm not telling you this story from the other side of some big leap into the unknown. I built something sustainable—right where I was. And that's exactly the point.

Over time, I learned the craft. I learned how to listen, how to ask the right questions, how to understand what a client actually needed instead of just what they said they wanted. I learned how to handle objections without getting defensive and how to close deals without being pushy.

I've worked with hospitals, universities, corporate campuses, real estate developers, government agencies, school districts, healthcare facilities, logistics companies, manufacturing plants, stadiums, parking structures, and so many other industries and companies I never would have expected to be part of. That's the thing about B2B—the need is everywhere. Every industry you can think of has businesses within it that buy, sell, and partner. That's where sales lives.

The flexibility I have now? That's what I didn't know was possible when I was working those long shifts and barely seeing my kids. I didn't know this world existed. And that's exactly why I'm sharing it.

Why I'm Sharing This

This course isn't a side hustle. I'm not building an income from teaching it. I have a career I love and a life I worked hard to build. This course exists because I kept thinking about the version of me that had no idea any of this was even an option—and I wanted to do something about that.

If you are a woman who is tired of being underpaid for your time, who has people-skills you've never been paid properly for, who is capable of so much more than your current situation shows—this is for you.

You don't need a degree. You don't need a network. You don't need corporate experience. I'm living proof that you can walk into this with a B2C background and zero B2B knowledge and build something real. And I believe that if someone like me—a retail worker with no connections, no degree, and no corporate sales experience—could build a career that gave her freedom, so can you.

"This is the course I wish someone had given me. So let's get into it. You're more ready than you think."
