What do scuba diving, courtroom drama, Facebook comment sections, and losing your cool in a meeting all have in common?

Absolutely everything—according to Biz-Souls, the business podcast with an edge (and just enough sarcasm to keep you honest).

This week, Rona Lewis and Jeffrey Hansler tackle the fine art of not losing your mind when everyone else already has.

Because let’s face it, in today’s world, staying calm in business meetings is basically an Olympic sport… and most people are competing in the “Emotional Outburst” category.

Inside This Episode:

• Why being “authentic” doesn’t mean calling your coworker an idiot (even if they earned it)

• How losing your cool can cost you credibility and money.

• The surprising lesson expert witnesses know: the calmer you are, the more powerful you become

• The secret formula to handle conflict without turning into a human flamethrower.

Jeffrey shares a moment where keeping his composure paid off big…

…and another where not doing so cost him. (Spoiler: emotions are expensive.)

Rona, meanwhile, openly admits she’d be a terrible poker player—because her face broadcasts feelings like it’s Times Square.

The Big Idea: Grace under fire isn’t about being emotionless. It’s about choosing your response instead of letting your reaction choose you.

Bonus Takeaway: If you can’t stay calm at work… Start practicing at home.

Nothing builds emotional discipline faster than: Family arguments, traffic jams, and someone cutting you in line at Starbucks.

Why Listen? Because business isn’t just strategy and spreadsheets, it’s people, pressure, and the occasional urge to scream into a void. And if you can master grace under fire, you don’t just survive business… you win it.
