You could use the "Limiter" effect (with the "soft limit" option) to bring
the peaks down to -3 dB.

I'm an Audiobook narrator. I use Audacity version 2.2.2 with Windows 10
and Jaws.
The audio I record must measure between -23DB and -18DB RMS, and have
-3DB peak values.
The problem I'm having with a few of my audio files is that they do have
-3DB peak values, but the RMS is around -26DB. I found a "Normalize DB"
plug-in. If I change the RMS value to -23, the peak DB value is around
0, which is too high. How can I adjust the RMS value to make the audio
louder without affecting peak DB values?
Thanks!
