Listen "Sell Your Way To Success: Stefani Havel on Sales, Trust, and the Power of DISC"
Episode Synopsis
In this insightful episode of the Freedom and Prosperity Podcast, host Desi Arnaz sits down with Stefani Havel — CEO and founder of Sales Strategy Network, sales strategist, and certified DISC facilitator. With decades of experience in corporate America and a lifetime of entrepreneurial roots, Stefani shares her wisdom on why sales is never about the hard pitch — it’s about building trust, understanding people, and making meaningful connections.
Stefani’s journey began at age six, selling vegetables at her grandfather’s farmers market stand, where she learned the timeless principles of curiosity, listening, and service. From there, she rose through the ranks of the banking and mortgage industry, leading top-performing teams and eventually founding her own sales training company.
Key takeaways from this episode include:
Why everyone is in sales — whether you’re at work, at home, or in relationships.
The role of the DISC framework in improving communication and connection.
How to adapt your style to build trust with different personalities.
The importance of passion and belief in what you’re selling.
Why success often comes later in life, when all the puzzle pieces finally fit together.
Stefani’s message is clear: when you focus on understanding people — their “why,” their style, and what matters most to them — the sales, the relationships, and the opportunities naturally follow.
