Authenticity Isn't Something You Build. It's Something You Undo
Barb Betts built a seven-figure real estate career without a single cold call, then took the same principle to stages across the country. She's a keynote speaker, CEO, and author of The Relationship Advantage.
Barb's argument cuts against the usual explanation for why nobody trusts anything anymore, whether that’s companies, leaders, salespeople or simply what shows up in your feed. She traces the real cause a layer deeper, to a breakdown in the relationship itself and unpacks what that means for the imposter syndrome she still feels walking onto stages today, the Capitol floor she once wanted to run from and the definition of authenticity that's landed hardest with the women in her audience.
Success doesn't cure loneliness, Barb suggests a habit rather than a mindset shift.
