Tracy Wallace
A Southern California native, Tracy grew up in a suburb just outside of Los Angeles proper, navigating the world as an only child. After graduating from USC with a Bachelor's in Business Administration, she opened her own retail store in Old Pasadena - a men's clothing store - and became integral to the area, being asked to serve on the area's inaugural Business Improvement District's Board. Over the next 30 years, she went on to become a professional fundraiser for a host of nonprofits, and raised over $35 million for a number of causes, including homelessness, youth services and animal rescue. At the same time, she fulfilled a lifelong dream of becoming a stand-up comedian and performing in the top local clubs. She did this all while taking care of her Type 1 diabetic husband, bunnies, a horse, dogs and a cat. She brings a special perspective to her podcast, sharing stories to help others in their life journey, while laughing through it all.
