Erica and I discuss:

• Why the most important negotiations you can have in your life are the ones in your own mind
• The biggest negotiation challenge a foreign supreme court justice presented to Erica
• Why a massively successful initiative that Erica led at Harvard Law School was shut down
• How you can go about challenging conventional wisdom in traditional places
• How the stories we tell ourselves get in the way of our full potential
• The strategies you can use to have conversations about other people’s failures.
• Why you must stand in the truth of your failure to learn and grow.
