Why are your launches so exhausting, and why is your ideal client walking away right before you make the offer? Is it your content? Nope. Is it your funnel? Think again! This week we’re continuing the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series, and I’m replaying a past episode with the legendary Tracy Goodwin, who exposes the psychological "masks" you’re wearing that are unconsciously sabotaging your sales and burning out your audience. 

Tracy has personally transformed my business, and in this conversation she reveals how the sound of your voice betrays your deepest core wounds, affecting your launch performance and client retention in mere seconds. 

If you want true connection, you must ditch the performance and start playing the long game of authenticity. So stop masking, and let’s start manifesting!

Tracy will be joining me on the stage this year at BBD Live 2025 in December in Phoenix, Arizona and we are not doing one next year! I don't know when the next in-person one will be, which is why we wanted to pull out all the stops and make this the biggest and best ever, so if you want to see Tracy Goodwin and all of our other amazing speakers rock the stage and blow minds at BBD Live 2025, go to  www.jameswedmore.com/tickets ASAP to see if tickets are still available)!
