This episode feels like one of those conversations when you tell yourself: “Oh… it’s not just me".
In this interview from the Yes, And! Podcast, Bunny talks with April Palmer, a sales expert, about sales, confidence, and imposter syndrome in a way that’s honest, grounded, and so relatable.
April shares her unconventional path into sales, the self-doubt that never fully disappeared, and the practices that helped her keep showing up anyway, especially as a mother, a leader, and a woman navigating big decisions with a very loud inner critic.
They get into what confidence in sales actually looks like behind the scenes. Saying no to clients. Not discounting yourself out of fear. Letting curiosity lead instead of pressure. And learning how to sell in a way that feels aligned with who you are, even when your brain is telling you you’re not enough.
This conversation is funny, real, and deeply relatable. It touches ADHD, learning curves, motherhood, and the quiet moments where you decide to trust yourself just enough to take the next step.
If you’ve ever felt capable and uncertain at the same time, or confident on the outside while doubting yourself on the inside, this episode will feel like sitting down with a friend who gets.
