Marketing and Sales Without Burning Your Life Down w. Teresa Prieto
Thu Feb 05 2026
This episode is for anyone who has built momentum before and quietly wondered, is this actually scalable, or am I just holding it together?
In this conversation on the Yes, And! Podcast, Bunny and Teresa talk about what it really takes to grow marketing and sales over the long term, especially when you’re not willing to sacrifice your family, your freedom, or your nervous system to do it.
Teresa shares what she’s learned from building a global sales operation across Latin America, scaling one of the most successful Sandler offices in the world, and creating years of consistent lead flow through YouTube and content that compounds. Not hacks. Not virality. Systems, patience, and deep audience understanding.
They talk about why most people quit too early, why execution matters more than confidence, and how fear of visibility and fear of success often look the same on the surface. The conversation also moves into identity, motherhood, and the moment when a business that looks successful on paper no longer fits the life you want to live.
