Alone With Trees = More Sales

We all say it: “I don’t have time for sales.”

But here’s the truth—most of us do have the time. What we’re really missing? The emotional space.

Because sales isn’t just about tactical actions like sending emails or making calls. It’s about creativity, curiosity, and listening to your intuition. At least for me—that’s what makes sales so fun.

But if your mind is cluttered and your energy scattered, those things can’t flow.

So here’s the real question to ask yourself: Is it time you’re lacking…or is it noise?

A few ways to cut down the noise:

✨ Limit your media intake. (Do you really need another scroll through the news feed, or will it just drain you?)
✨ Set boundaries on your energy. (Who or what consistently leaves you feeling heavy instead of inspired?)
✨ Create intentional reset time. (Even 20 minutes of journaling, meditation, or a walk can bring clarity.)

For me, this lesson hit hard over the past year. I found myself way too emotionally invested in the political climate—and while, yes, what a shit show, it left my inner world so noisy that I couldn’t tap into the creativity needed for aligned sales action.

So a couple of weeks ago, I packed up and took myself on a solo getaway up north. Just me, my journal, some books, and a whole lot of trees. And what happened? Ideas poured in. Fresh, aligned, exciting ideas for how to show up in my business—and my life.

The wild part? When I acted on those ideas, the results came fast. Referrals started flowing in. Speaking offers landed in my inbox. And it worked so well that I’ve already booked another solo trip for later this month.

Here’s what I want you to take away:

Sales success isn’t about cramming in more tasks. It’s about having the emotional space to see clearly which sales activities are most aligned—because those are the ones that reap the biggest rewards.

✨ And if you need permission to quiet the noise, here it is: You are allowed to step away, to reset, to eliminate the things that drain you. Protecting your energy isn’t selfish—it’s the most powerful sales strategy you’ve got. ✨

So the next time you catch yourself thinking, “I don’t have time,” ask instead:
