How Safety Restores Cognitive Function

As entrepreneurs, money impacts every aspect of our businesses, from pricing, team expenses, taxes, and more. But true success goes beyond just having money; it's about fostering a healthy and abundant relationship with it. Today we're continuing the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series and replaying a special episode we did earlier this year that is too good not to share! My special guest is none other than Kate Northup, who is back on the podcast to talk everything money and how to heal your relationship with it.

In fact, it's almost impossible to have a thriving business without being good with money and keeping a focus on your relationship with it, which is what makes this conversation with Kate such an important one to be having, and to be sharing with you again!

Kate 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 Kate Northrup 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)!
