Carter Pilling: How He Developed Relentless Self-Belief | Ep. 130
In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Carter Pilling, a man on a mission whose determination, self-belief, and purpose are truly contagious. Fresh off my first summer in door-to-door sales, I reflect on how Carter played a crucial role in my growth—instilling in me a deep sense of self-belief and showing me what’s possible.
Carter’s story is powerful. Growing up as the man of his house from a young age, he learned early on how to take charge and lead. He opens up about how D2D sales changed his life, the mindset shifts that led to his success, and why his car group consistently dominates—not just because of their work ethic, but because of the culture of leadership and respect he creates.
One of the most impactful things Carter shares is how choosing the right life partner has played a massive role in his success. He met his wife at a time when he wasn’t actively looking for a relationship—he was focused on building himself. But when the right person came along, she pushed him to be better, challenged him to grow, and became a crucial part of his journey. Carter emphasizes how important it is to have a significant other who believes in you and pushes you to reach your potential.
This episode is packed with actionable advice on how to develop self-belief, confidence, and a winning mindset. If you’ve ever doubted yourself or struggled with confidence, this conversation will inspire you to level up.
