95: Build Relationships, Be Resilient, and Get Out of Your Comfort Zone with Tricia Sticca
Before venturing into career transformation coaching, Tricia Sticca had a successful 30-year sales career. She sold candy and finance packages. Regardless of what she was selling, she knew she had to learn how to build relationships. With the ups and downs of sales, Tricia learned what it meant to get out of her comfort zone, take calculated risks, learn what “no” really meant, and find ways to contribute, simplify where possible, and build trust wherever she can.
In this episode, John and Tricia get on the mic to talk about:
· How building relationships is the backbone of a successful career
· How you can transfer your skills into any position
· What it means to get unstuck and step out of your comfort zone
