What if one skill could boost your income by 50% without changing your job, title, or hours? In this episode, Russ and Joey sit down with legendary speaker Joel Weldon, who has been paid over 3,000 times to speak and coach more than 10,000 entrepreneurs, executives, and business leaders. He breaks down why communication is one of the highest-paid skills in business, investing, leadership, and even family life.

Joel also discusses the most common mistakes people make when communicating and how these can cost you deals, trust, and influence. He shares tips, including the power of the words “because,” “even,” and “you,” to make your message clear, memorable, and persuasive.

Through real-life stories, Joel demonstrates how improving communication can directly impact your income and opportunities. If you want to influence more, close better deals, and get the results you deserve, you won’t want to miss this.

Top three things you will learn:

-How to include everyone in your message

-How to get meaningful feedback

-How to connect authentically to influence decisions

About Our Guest:

Joel Weldon is a renowned speaker and speaking skills coach. But he wasn't always an amazing speaker. His expertise came as a result of learning how to speak effectively after hearing an audience member say, "You are the worst speaker I have ever heard in my entire life." That feedback fueled his desire to develop his skill and become the ultimate speaker.

Joel is also committed to health and fitness, spending over 60 days every year on the water (skiing, surfing, and “air-chairing” on a slalom course). He has been married to his high school sweetheart, Judy, for 59 years, has 2 daughters who work with him every day, and 4 wonderful grandchildren.
