Listen "Tracy Hooper on the dinner table, "The Confidence Project," and words to ditch (from your vocab)"
Episode Synopsis
This one is a doozy - in all of the best ways. Tracy Hooper, founder of "The Confidence Project" talks with Trish about growing up with 5 siblings and why the dinner table was so very important. She calls her mom (who sounds fabulous by the way) the "OG Talk Show Host," because come dinner, she would be checking up on everyone seated around the table. Tracy says this was truly the foundation for communication. She explains her journey to the west coast, where she ultimately began this incredible project, although it didn't start out to be what it is today. Now, through keynotes and one on one advising, even virtual labs, Tracy helps those gain more confidence in the working environment. Her keynote, "Words to Use, Words to Lose," helps those speak more confidently, efficiently, and just plain smarter. Trish says she was blown away by not only Tracy's heart for this work, but all she's doing to help teach civility. Take some notes!
