  • Chris Voss: FBI-Backed Tactics for Better Communication

    Chris Voss: FBI-Backed Tactics for Better Communication
    Mar 11 2025
    Ever walked into a conversation and felt like you were on the losing end before it even started? Whether it’s a tough negotiation, a disagreement at home, or just trying to get someone to see your side, there’s a right and wrong way to do it—and Chris Voss is the guy to teach it. I’ve been a fan of Chris’s work for a long time, and getting to sit down with him was a masterclass in negotiation, tactical empathy, and human connection. Chris is a former FBI hostage negotiator, the author of Never Split the Difference, and the CEO of The Black Swan Group. His negotiation tactics aren’t just for high-stakes situations—they work everywhere. And in this episode, he breaks it all down for us.

  • How My Parents Raised an Expert Communicator

    How My Parents Raised an Expert Communicator
    Feb 25 2025
    How do you raise a good communicator? How do you teach kids to be kind but not a pushover? And what actually matters when it comes to parenting? In this episode, I’m sitting down with the two people who shaped my life the most—my parents. This is a personal one. But whether you're a parent, thinking about becoming one, or just curious about how childhood shapes the way we communicate, I think you’ll take something valuable away from this conversation.

Short and Sweet

Jefferson’s Instagram content always provides relevant, concise, and actionable insights. And I’m happy to see that the podcast expands on these qualities, while still maintaining a listener-friendly 15-20 minute format. This approach caters perfectly to people who are seeking good advice without a significant time investment…Followed! :)

Common Sense Communications

Some folks feel volume is the answer. Just because a person speaks loudly does not make them right. There is wisdom in these podcasts. One has much to gain by listening to these nuggets of truth.

I love how Jefferson gives ways to handle others but more importantly how to improve my communication skills.

I always like learning new ways to communicate. I'm a special education teacher and I'm learning through this podcast how much I still have to learn
