    I’m listening to this episode a second time!
    The episode about self sabotage has really hit me different… I have caught myself several times in just the last few days doing something else when I said I was going to do another. I’m noticing things I wasn’t noticing before and I want that to keep going so I’m listening again!
  • SoreyFitness
    The podcast I’ve needed!!
    Melanie is so relatable and knowledgeable! This is the podcast I’ve needed in my life for years, and I’m so glad I found it! If you’re in network marketing, you have to listen!
  • go_get_it
    Melanie gets me
    I needed to be reminded of all the things that have been holding me back. This is so relatable and actionable. Thank you Melanie for sharing.
  • Meg Yelaney
    Relatable and Action Oriented
    I love how RELATABLE and action oriented Melanie’s episodes are. She breaks things down in such a simple way which really makes it so easy to take action. Thank you so much for sharing so authentically!
  • @kerrismith
    Top Notch Leader
    I’ve been following Melanie from before she was on IG. She has been the most consistent leader I’ve followed. I consider her a mentor from a far. Hearing her weave her faith through her conversations now, is just an amazing part of her growth.
  • Cbryteach
    Always speaking to me
    I feel like Melanie is always speaking directly to me. I haven’t really been a podcast listener for learning, but she is on continual play for me. I was inspired to sign up for their collective to build my brand and my business…..even just starting out. There is so much great advice given.
  • Jess Schmenk
    Changed the game
    I’ve listened to this podcast for the last couple years I’ve been in direct sales and I can’t tell you how much I’ve learned from Melanie, it’s like she is giving me a straight pep talk or I’m learning and gaining new perspectives from the guest she has on the show, it’s like she picks the perfect people to share their knowledge at just the right time.
  • paigeamberbacani
    Mindset Matters!!
    Melanie truly shares ALL with her listeners! She shares where she started, where she is at, and the steps that we need to take in order to be successful! More than that, she reminds us of the MINDSET that we need to consistently cultivate in order to continuously grow! I am so grateful for the inspiration that you are as a young mama beginning a business of my own!!
  • MegginAndersonFitness
    Amazing leader and mentor
    I have followed Melanie for years in our industry as partners and considered her a personal mentor for my business. She is extremely knowledgeable and relatable and always seems to know what I need to hear, she is my GO TO for knowledge in this area and can quickly shift my mindset when I find I am in moments of feeling stuck in my business. Thank you for all that you do, your podcasts are invaluable.
  • YASS QUEEN!!!

  • Heather O'Neill
    Hands down, Best Podcast
    Melanie has changed my entire way of thinking. She makes me think make like a leader. She stops me in my tracks and has me holding myself accountable and showing up differently for my team. Best podcast I came across in 2022 and I’m excited to see where she takes me in 2023!!! Absolutely love these episodes, and am always impatiently waiting for the newest one to come out!! Thank you Melanie!!

    Stop what you’re doing and listen!
    Melanie is the go-to expert for all things NWM. So if you want to grow quickly yet sustainably without burning out, listen closely and pay attention bc these episodes are packed with tips you can use right away!
  • Dawn.m.
    Best NWM Training!!
    I can’t say enough about this podcast! I stumbled on it just a week ago and I have listened and re-listened and listened and re-listened over and over again! I filled a tablet with notes, I’ve shared with my leaders, I’ve shared with my downline and my up line! Excellent content, easily applicable and brutally honest which we also need! Way to go Melanie!!
  • RikaBoo413
    So grateful for this podcast
    I’m just blown away by this amazing woman!! I stumbled upon her podcast and when I say her advice and mentorship is by far the best I’ve hear after being in the NWM industry since 2022. Often you get off trainings with r podcasts and still leave with the thought but how in the world do I do it. A lot people in our industry say just do the do and you have not one clue what the do is!! Listening to this podcast if in a rut or just trying to navigate how to become great or one of the top people in your company because your WHY is just that big then do yourself a favor and just subscribe. Listen. Listen again. Take notes. Implement and be grateful for here knowledge and just being flat out real!! Especially for us wives and mommy’s who husbands want to see results. -@hautehousewife
  • Carla Jo Howard

  • c rye16
    Easy to listen and relate to
    I love how Melanie is so easy to listen to. She is easy to relate to so it helps me see that it is truly possible to make it in my business. She does this by using clear examples of her life and how it relates to you and the current situation you may be in. I haven’t had much time to sit down and read my personal development so I have been listening to her to pump me up and give me a little extra push with my business. I also follow her on IG to get ideas of fun content to post. I appreciate her confidence in all women to be the best we can be in whatever Avenue we chose.

    Talk about MOTIVATION!
    This podcast will get you in the right headspace, so that you can tackle anything your business throws at you. From small tips that make a huge difference to hard truths you need to recognize in your business, I cannot recommend this podcast enough.
  • hapettit
    It is like she knows what we need to hear!
    I have been looking towards Melanie since I began my direct sales business 6 year ago. Not having a strong upline when I joined, she was the first relatable coach I stumbled upon and started following to understand how to effectively work my business. She has been through the up’s and down’s as a business owner so her thoughts, tips and processes are so relatable and incredibly helpful, especially since she is a mom too! She reminds you it is ok to be human, but also that we are resilient and can accomplish what we truly believe we are capable of. She doesn’t talk down to you, but provides a sense that she is chatting with you to help you be better in what you do so any obstacle does not stop you.
  • kbell1086
    Love this
    I just started listening to the podcast in August (Team Cup month). I love how you are straight to the point and you don’t sugarcoat this IS A BUSINESS. Granted I am in my own way, but listening to your podcast I recognize that and I am working on it! Thank you Melanie Mitro and keep it up!!

  • PolciScio
    Much needed
    Hello, my name is Steph. I recently found Melanie’s podcast (Women inspiring Women) about 4 weeks ago. I’m not in any business or looking to be. The massive goal in front of me is to lose 60lbs. It’s wonderful how Melanie’s topics can apply to ALL areas of life. I’ve learned to drill down and create monthly & daily goals that will, for sure, get me to that bigger goal that I WILL achieve in 1 year. I listen to 2 podcasts of hers on my walk. One starting & the 2nd (podcast) on the walk home. Time flies while listening. Give this podcast a try. YOU. WILL. NOT. REGRET. IT.
  • Coach Teri Lee
    Simple steps to follow
    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this podcast! Melanie gives super simple actions to follow to help your business! The tough love is what I need. I listen to some of the recordings multiple times. This helps as I find new things I missed the previous time I listened. I am so excited and grateful that we have someone who has gone through literally every piece of what is being recommended! I appreciate that, even with a super busy schedule, Melanie truly wants to help the rest of us! Thanks for all you do!!!

    STOP PLAYING SMALL
    I have listened to Melanie’s podcast for over a year now. After each episode, I am left feeling very confident in my reasons for wanting to help others. Melanie gives real life tips and suggestions on how to make network marketing work. Although we are not in the same circle in real life, Melanie is definitely on my list of people I surround myself with to make me level up. She always reminds me to STOP PLAYING SMALL! Thank you Melanie for sharing your wisdom and experience with us!

  • conflictedvibes
    Tuesday is my new fav day of the week
    I love this podcast so much. Love that you break down what you are saying so your listeners can understand it better. Listened to you and am reading The Slight Edge, Compound Effect is next, leaving a review and checking out Chic Influencer!!! Recommendation for future episode: I like my up line, they’re really great women, but I don’t really vibe with them. I try not to be rude and still talk in the chat, but majority of the time it’s not business related. And I’m more focused on the business. They also don’t do the business for money??? And that’s not the main focus, which I get, but money has to be part of the equation, right?? I know this community is close and we will likely see each other at future events, but I stopped going to the team calls because they’re just sitting around chatting about their day and I can use the hour to work. I tried to leave the group chat once, but went back when they messaged me. I felt bad and don’t want to offend anyone. I am finding myself learning from other leaders and I’m okay with that, but I don’t want to have a bad vibe in the network. I guess what I’m trying to say is how do I gracefully pull away or do I just straight up tell them hey I’m on my own, good luck. 🤷🏻‍♀️😬
  • Emii04

  • Janetmath
    WOW WOW WOW
    Podcast #138 was so amazing. I need to just sit down and write each item out. I am listening on my way to & from work. I hear a suggestion, start thinking how I can do this then have to go back because I have missed the next point. Can I just say WOW
