Owen is the author of The Power of Love and The Love Switch , where he explores how courage, care, and authentic connection transform leadership and business outcomes. SHOW SUMMARY In this episode of the Selling from the Heart Podcast, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy are joined by Owen Burns to explore the powerful role that love, defined as courage, care, and authenticity, plays in sales and leadership. Owen explains that “selling from the heart” means having the courage to genuinely care for others, even when outcomes are uncertain. He challenges the common belief that the opposite of love is hate, arguing instead that fear is the real barrier preventing people from building meaningful relationships and taking action. Owen introduces his relationship frameworks, Seven to Heaven and Five to Thrive, which help leaders and sales professionals build, strengthen, and sustain trust-based relationships. The conversation also highlights the Love Switch, a practical technique for responding with intention rather than reacting from fear. By recognizing fear and reframing interactions with empathy and clarity, sales professionals can foster deeper engagement, healthier conversations, and stronger long-term business relationships.
