My Guest Presentation at Ian Koniak's UYSP 2025 Retreat

Amber Deibert

August 4, 2025




I’m sharing a raw, personal presentation I gave at Ian Koniak’s Untap Your Sales Potential retreat, where the theme was Scars to Success.

I reveal my full backstory: growing up in poverty, struggling with perfectionism, chasing achievement for self-worth and the breakdown that changed everything.

You'll hear the painful (and funny) moments that shaped me, the survival strategies that got me far (until they didn’t), and the emotional healing I had to do to finally feel like I was enough, exactly as I am.

If you’ve ever felt like achievement is the only way to prove yourself, this episode will hit home in a powerful way.

In this episode I riff on:

↠ Growing up in chaos, and how it shaped my nervous system

↠ Using achievement as a way to earn love and worth

↠ Why people-pleasing and perfectionism eventually collapse

↠ The burnout moment that forced me to finally look inward

↠ Learning self-compassion and modeling it for the first time

↠ Why you don’t need to fix yourself to be worthy

↠ The power of “protecting the asset” (aka YOU)

↠ What growth looks like without proving yourself

Hi, I’m Amber, the go-to performance coach for enterprise tech sellers looking to ditch mindset trash, streamline their workday, and get more done with less friction. 

I’ve been coaching full-time for over 6 years, and with hundreds of sellers (1000+ sessions and counting!) under my belt. 

I know what it takes to help high performers reach new heights—and still have time to be present with your family + personal life.


I spent years in tech, myself. In roles like Learning & Development, Leadership, Sales Enablement, and System Administration. 


I know what it’s like to manage a mile-long to-do list and the pressure of being a top performer at a rocketship startup. 


I’ve also been where my clients are: overwhelmed, unsure of myself, and thinking everyone around me was naturally more confident and driven. 


But here's the thing—confidence isn’t about being born with it. It’s about having the right mindset and habits to back yourself up. 


That’s where I come in.
