"Tales From the Passenger Seat: A Sales Manager's Journey" is a podcast by a sales manager for sales managers. Meghan Clarke interviews other sales managers, executives, coaches, and professionals to reveal best practices, tactics to overcome times of struggle, strategies for team success, and real-life lessons to help any sales manager or professional in their position, regardless of tenure or title. Why the title "Tales From the Passenger Seat"? Most outside sales managers would say the most memorable time they spend with their team members is riding in the passenger seat of their cars during field visits. It certainly has been for me. Whether it is the coaching, sharing of best practices, or overall experience of learning from one another, professionally or personally, no one can dispute that these times in the passenger seat, whether literally or metaphorically, are filled with tremendous meaning. Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote, "It's not about the destination; it's about the journey." The same can be said for a manager; it is not about the title, the money, or the power. It is about the people: the people and the opportunity to be part of their journies. After these podcasts, you will feel inspired and more knowledgeable by these fellow sales managers, executives, and leaders whom Meghan admires. Also, hopefully, you will share a few relatable laughs about the wild ride of working in the unpredictable but meaningful field of people management.

Bounce Back: The Power of Resilience in Life and Sports, with Shawn Harper

Welcome back to Tales From the Passenger Seat: A Sales Manager's Journey. In this episode, I discuss the power of resilience and mindset with my talented guest, Shawn Harper.

Shawn is a former NFL offensive lineman with the Rams, Colts, and NFL Europe. He is also the author of two power-packed books, The Winning Edge-8 Principles That Will Bring Out the Winner in You and The Winologist.

Shawn grew up with five siblings in a single-parent household after divorce plunged the family into poverty. He was failing in school due to five documented learning disabilities and a debilitating stutter. He was an average football player with no accolades and was even voted "Most Likely to Fail" by his graduating class.

Shawn was on his way to becoming another inner-city statistic, but he chose a new journey by shifting to a winner's mindset! He learned he wasn't disabled; instead, he was uniquely enabled.

He has made it his mission to help others overcome their obstacles and equip them with the mindset of playing to win!

This episode is for seasoned leaders, leaders-to-be, and anyone wanting to learn more about resilience and the power of shifting to a winner's mindset. Life is all about choices, and Shawn chose to become the best version of himself despite enormous adversity.
