Whether you realize it or not, we negotiate all the time. While buying a new car or discussing a salary may come to mind, we have to overcome obstacles and set clear objectives in our personal lives too. And unfortunately, these situations don't come with a script.

So what does it mean to 'meet in the middle' when there's much more at stake? Or when there seems to be an imbalance in power?

In this episode, I'm joined by expert negotiator Leigh Thompson who shares the professional skills you can take into any scenario for finding the 'sweet spot' with the ones you love and strengthening relationships with each conversation.

Show highlights include:

• Why people end up persuading instead of negotiating and how to approach a 'win-win' strategy with your kids (0:40)
• What two sisters and an orange reveal about negotiation and how you can find the sweet spot with personal interactions today (8:45)
• Why 'win-win' isn't a sustainable strategy with the ones you love and how to find the best possible solution with sensitive conversations (14:20)
• What the 'dessert tray' strategy reveals about solving any complicated problem and how to build trust in your negotiations instantly (19:20)
• The difference between conversations with your kids and your parents and how to carefully approach power dynamics with respect and rationalization (31:17)

It has been stamped into our brains since childhood that "winners never quit and quitters never win." This mentality can lead to overcommitting and the type of exhaustion that no amount of coffee can resurrect. And if you want to make room for bigger things in life, you have to let something go.

So how do you know when it's time to quit?

In this episode, you'll navigate through the best and worst times to let go and learn why quitting at the perfect time opens you up to greater opportunities in life.

Show highlights include:

• What Glennon Doyle reveals about the taboos of quitting and why letting things go today doesn't take away the success of tomorrow (0:50)
• The seven signs of quitting and how they bring instant opportunity and energy to your life (4:45)
• The worst times to let something go and why you should persist through them instead (11:50)
• Why quitting immediately builds your creative spirit and offers opportunities to others (15:27)

If you're passionate about working on yourself and always improving, it's natural to want your partner to feel just as excited about the journey, right? In fact, you probably want them right alongside you for the ride.

But sometimes that isn't the case. Maybe self-improvement doesn't pique their interest... and you might not understand why. Who wouldn't want to build a better life?

And while encouraging someone to start their own personal development journey seems like the right thing to do, you're really just working against the tide.

In this episode, you'll discover why inspiring others starts with working on yourself and how to feel loved and connected with your spouse (even if they don't share the same passions as you).

Show highlights include:

• The real reason self-development doesn't feel like 'any other hobby' and the top three causes for your frustration at home (0:50)
• Why "finding yourself" can feel lonely and how to find people you can explore self-development with today (9:41)
• Why persistently asking a spouse to read your favorite book never works - and how to inspire loved ones instead (without bothering them) (11:10)
• What to do when you start feeling disconnected from your partner and how to restore your relationship (instead of watching the problem grow) (12:40)

Would you consider an exaggeration a lie? (What about when you "didn't read that text" from a friend?) We all have versions of a little white lie, but is this secretly hurting you along the way?
