The Science Behind: Sales Effectiveness with Reem Borrows

If the word “sales” creates tension, you’re not alone. For many, it’s associated with pressure, persuasion, and performance. But sales, at its core, is not about convincing. It’s about understanding. In this conversation, Reem Borrows and Gloria Rees explore the psychology behind sales and leadership. They unpack why rejection feels personal (it’s neurological), how attachment to outcomes distorts behaviour, and why ethical detachment is one of the most powerful commercial disciplines you can develop. From pipeline clarity to the discipline of listening, this episode reframes sales as a human conversation grounded in service, awareness, and intention. In this episode, we explore: • Why “no” feels threatening, and how to reframe it• The role of pre-call intention in reducing pressure• How detachment improves trust and results• The behavioural science behind influence and decision-making If you’re ready to move from pressure to precision in your sales approach, this conversation is for you. Take a pause. Tune in. *** Subscribe for more conversations on leadership, performance, and human-centred growth. You can contact us at: ⁠dreem.com.au⁠ info@dreem.com.au

Bids, Business, and Balance – A Conversation with Jessie Kernot

Why do women, as a generalisation, tend to undervalue their work? And how can you lead with humanity when the world feels broken? In this powerful and deeply honest episode, Reem Borrows sits down with Jessie Kernot, a formidable leader in community engagement, infrastructure, and a passionate feminist. Jessie shares her journey as a leader and as a mother to two young children, Pravi (4) and Arjan (2), and how that's only strengthened her resolve. We explore: The "quiet and unseen" work of women and generations of social conditioning. The critical "keys on the table" lesson: why you are not your business . Jessie's career-defining pivot from a safe corporate job to volunteering with a microfinance group in Vietnam. The "Is this it?" feeling and the courage to chase your purpose. Why "it takes a village" isn't a cliché, it's a leadership necessity. Reem also shares her personal, non-negotiable belief: that you cannot separate leadership from humanity and advocacy. This is a conversation about leadership, value, and our shared commitment to truth. To get in touch us please reach out via: dreem.com.au info@dreem.com.au
