Are you feeling stuck or stagnant in your personal or professional life? Do you want to become more successful?

This is the episode for you!

A few weeks ago, my husband James Williams (Certified High-Performance Coach) attended Brendon Burchard’s Growth Day Conference here in Austin.

Every day, for four days, James came home and shared his biggest takeaways with me. Even though I wasn’t there in the room, I was transformed just by him sharing the info with me!

For that reason, I wanted to ensure that you heard from him as well.

So, if you’re feeling stuck or stagnant, I highly recommend listening to this episode. James provides HIGHLY valuable insights on personal growth and development from the world’s best teachers so that can help you move forward and achieve your goals.

“The goal is to get as close to that person as possible…and what can i do every day to get closer to him so that when i meet him on tho on that final day you know we are just smiling at each other and you know we know between us that i i did pretty well.” – James Williams
