Struggling to Be Heard? Master This One Communication Skill to Instantly Gain More Respect & Influence


If you’ve ever found yourself over-explaining, struggling to get your point across, or avoiding tough conversations, this episode is for you. Communication expert and trial lawyer Jefferson Fisher joins me to break down the essentials of effective communication—so you can be heard, respected, and understood in every conversation.

Jefferson has skyrocketed to fame as one of the most sought-after voices in communication strategy, helping millions sharpen their skills. Whether you’re leading a team, handling difficult conversations, or just wanting to show up more confidently in everyday life, Jefferson’s insights will change the way you speak and listen.

We dive into why saying less actually makes your words more powerful, how to navigate emotionally charged conversations, and the small communication shifts that lead to big results in your business and personal life.


HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:

1️⃣ The More You Say, The Less You Mean – Over-explaining weakens your message. Keeping your words clear and concise ensures your point lands with power and authority.

2️⃣ The Power of the Pause – Silence is a game-changer. Mastering the pause before responding instantly elevates your confidence and allows you to control the conversation.

3️⃣ Confidence Comes From Assertiveness – Confidence isn’t something you wait for—it’s something you practice. Eliminating weak language, unnecessary apologies, and filler words makes you a stronger, more compelling communicator.
