In this powerful episode of Live Well, Earn Well, guest host Donna Lynn Price sits down with master coach and transformational leader Brandon Barber — a man whose 25-year journey has taken him from million-dollar stages to one of the most honest rebuilds in the coaching world.

Brandon and his wife Michelle have helped over one million entrepreneurs, coaches, and business owners rise stronger, communicate better, and scale faster. Together they've:

Created 100+ courses generating over $10 million
Led 300+ in-person events
Spoken on 100+ stages worldwide
Facilitated more than 150 transformational masterclasses

But behind those numbers is a deeply human story.

After a cancer diagnosis in 2019 and the complete shutdown of their in-person event business during COVID, Brandon found himself exhausted, uncertain, and wondering if it was time to walk away. Instead, he and Michelle rebuilt their business from the ground up — this time with systems, resilience, and clarity at the core.

In this episode, you'll hear Brandon talk about:

🌍 The "Trust Recession" — why people are more skeptical than ever, and what actually builds trust now
💼 Selling in today's market without becoming pushy, desperate, or burned out
🎯 The 3 sales identities — Pleaser, Pusher, and Professional — and which one gets real results
🧠 How to turn your lived experience into scalable courses and programs (without starting from scratch)
🎟 Why 5-day masterclasses and challenges are one of the most effective ways to sell and serve
📖 How to use hook, story, offer and your personal stories to speak to the subconscious brain and move people to action
