  • EP 40: Mindset Mastery for Sales Dads: Adam Halberstadt's Journey
    May 11 2025

    Adam Halberstadt shares his journey from corporate sales to becoming a mindset coach for dads in sales who want to make more money without sacrificing valuable family time.


    Adam reveals how understanding salespeople's unique pressures has helped him create an effective coaching program that transforms clients' relationships with work and family.

    • Transitioned from corporate to coaching to gain more time and autonomy as a single father
    • Recognized that sales professionals often "ghost" their families while believing they're providing what's needed
    • Created a 12-week curriculum combining one-on-one coaching with group support sessions
    • Uses guided homework and reflection to help clients externalize their thoughts and identify limiting beliefs
    • Draws parallels between his coaching model and AA, offering both personalized guidance and community support
    • Defines success as having control over his schedule rather than external validation
    • Helps clients recognize that waiting until retirement to enjoy life is a dangerous gamble
