“You have to become the person who does that big thing you want. You can’t do it as the person you are today—unless you’re already doing it.”
In this powerful episode of the Master Delegator podcast, Kristy Yoder speaks with Tracie Root—coach, community builder, and founder of The Gather Community—about choosing boldness in life and business.
Tracie opens up about her shift from corporate life to entrepreneurship after losing her husband. As a single mom, she pursued a path of healing and freedom through coaching.
She shares her B.O.L.D. framework—Believe, Own, Leap, Develop—and how embracing discomfort, telling your story, and letting go of perfection lead to growth.
Key Takeaways
- Every entrepreneur has a deeper “why.” For Tracie, it was being fully present for her kids.
- Leaving corporate isn’t about perfect timing—it’s about bold choices and trusting yourself.
- Authenticity builds trust and connection—key to leadership and business growth.
- Boldness means acting through fear, not without it.
- The B.O.L.D. framework helps reframe challenges and pursue big goals.
- Everything is a choice—align your actions with your values.
- Community drives growth: support and accountability matter.
Tune in for real talk, bold moves, and practical strategies for navigating entrepreneurship.
