This time Darrah and Elizabeth talk about how important it is to learn how to say 'no'. Through a few key anecdotes, advice on what NOT to do if you want a 'yes', and an exploration of different ways to say 'no', we explore how often the ability to say 'no' can lead to a type of freedom by which you'll be surprised and delighted!

Elizabeth has two little girls. Darrah is on the fence about starting a family. We get really in the weeds about how this decision will affect your life and career. We discuss the fears you may have before deciding to start a family from the standpoints of personal life, ability, and career. We talk about career advantages when you have kids, guilt, uncertainty, and wrap with questions to ask yourself on the subject.

Elizabeth and Darrah are in lockstep on delegation but are divided on the issue of partnership. Each of us discusses our viewpoint as well as what kinds of partners to steer clear of, how to structure partnership so it works, and we even touch on how all this can apply to romantic partners!

This episode is invaluable to anyone wondering how to be better at networking. No one is better at this than Darrah and she covers it all.

She talks about modern networking and why forming relationships is smarter than creating 'contacts' or transactions. She teaches us how to start from wherever you are, overcome your fear, and meet anyone you want. Darrah tells us how to overcome shyness, ask for help the right way, and then pushes us all to do the "give it forward" challenge.

Years ago, Darrah and Elizabeth had a real problem with our friend and business contact "Jenn".

We tell the story of how the friendship evolved and devolved. We focus specifically on the very real issue of what happens when someone you are friends with is tied to your social and professional circles and they start to lash out and try to destroy your reputation.

We are joined by Margo Aaron: co-host of the internet talk show "Hillary and Margo Yell at Websites" (#HAMYAW), a regular contributor to Inc, and founder of the most popular internet newsletter you've never heard of. She is a psychology, sales, and marketing guru who runs a course on how to punch your lizard brain in the face and learn to sell 

She discusses the fears that prevent us from making sales and offers ideas of how to place value ON our value!

This episode focuses on how to choose your own definition of success and why that matters. Is it money or something else? We talk about what happens we live someone else’s version of success, tools to start uncovering what you truly want, and then figuring out how to move towards it.
