Episode 56: Nervous System Regulation In Sales with Jen Liss

by | Jan 25, 2026 | Podcast

✨ Episode Summary

Do sales calls feel like a performance? Or worse, a threat? That doesn’t mean you’re bad at sales — your nervous system just thinks you’re in danger. 

In this episode, I’m joined by Jen Liss, a somatic coach, breathwork facilitator, and host of the unapologetically named podcast F**k Around and Get Paid. Jen explains why selling activates our fight-or-flight mode, what dysregulated vs. regulated sales really look like, and how to stop selling from desperation, pressure, or self-preservation.

Here’s what we’re talking about:

  • Why sales feels terrifying (and why it’s not a mindset problem)
  • How dysregulated selling creates dysregulated buyers
  • The difference between generosity and over-giving
  • Why ethical selling starts with nervous system safety
  • A ridiculously simple pre-sales ritual that actually works (yes… it involves shaking your hips)

If you’ve ever felt pushy, awkward, desperate, or “off” when talking about your offers, this episode is definitely for you.
