Episode Description

In this heartfelt and power-packed episode of Sincerely Self, Lexi sits down with Drew Norton — dynamic self-development coach, sales consultant, and co-host of the Everyday Leader Podcast. Drew opens up about his decade-long journey in sales leadership, the powerful mindset shifts that helped him build successful sales teams, and the deeper life lessons that shaped his philosophy that “sales is life.”

 

But this conversation goes far beyond business strategy. Drew shares the deeply personal story of his infant son’s near-death experience and how that crisis reshaped his understanding of communication, leadership, faith, and purpose. He speaks on trauma, marriage, healing, and how the skills he learned in sales unexpectedly equipped him to support his wife through anxiety and recovery.

 

For entrepreneurs, leaders, and anyone navigating growth, this episode blends tactical insight with emotional depth — reminding us that every skill we build in business truly follows us into every other area of our lives.
