  • How to Handle Nervousness Before a Big Conversation

    How to Handle Nervousness Before a Big Conversation
    Apr 8 2025
    Let’s talk about nerves. I say this all the time—it is totally normal to feel nervous before a conversation. In fact, it's a good thing. It means you care. But what you do with that nervousness can completely change how the conversation goes. In this episode, I’m sharing three techniques I use myself and teach often—especially when people ask me how to stay calm, confident, and connected when it matters most. Whether you’ve got a big conversation coming up or just want to communicate with more ease, this one’s for you. This episode is sponsored by Cozy Earth. Upgrade Your Every Day.

  • How to Stay Calm When You’re Disrespected

    How to Stay Calm When You’re Disrespected
    Apr 1 2025
    You are not a target. Not a punching bag. Not the release valve for someone else’s frustration. In the middle of the book tour whirlwind, I’m reflecting on a powerful review someone left for The Next Conversation and diving into the first and most foundational rule of the book: say it with control. I’ll walk you through a mindset shift that’s helped thousands of people—not just to win arguments, but to protect their peace. We talk about regulating our fight-or-flight response, how to use your breath as a pause button, and why you are never required to absorb someone else’s emotional baggage.

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.

Fantastic, Short & Informative

I have purchased many books on talking to anyone with more confidence or dealing with difficult people, but it was a lot of information at once that was hard to retain. When I discovered Jefferson Fisher on Instagram, I was thrilled by his short, concise, and insightful advice on handling difficult people. He breaks it down into situations that are easy to refer back to. His ability to break down complex situations into actionable steps is invaluable. With the release of his podcast, I’m excited to have more access to his wisdom in the same manner. I can’t wait for more episodes! I Highly recommend this podcast to anyone looking to navigate conversations or challenging interactions confidently!

Hands down best advice giver out there!!

I listen to all sorts of things, mainly self improvement and history. This guy makes the most sense out of everything! All those weird, awkward situations where you wished you had handled better.. he shows you how. Most effective on explaining confidence, how to have proper conversations without being a pushover. Love this!!

Clear & Concise

I love the “Let’s get right into it” mentality. I also appreciate how he repeats himself so you are more likely to get it with the first listen. Very useful and strategic tips. I have used his advice several times and it works! I always look forward to learning more.
