Curious about how to change your life? click here for coffee and chatChange Your Life with Dr. Amen KaurIf you lost your job, were laid off or made redundant, or came out of a divorce, and you know what you want next but cannot make yourself move, the problem is not discipline. In this episode, Dr. Amen Kaur explains the science of why working harder stops working after you have been devalued, why you have no motivation even though you know what to do, and what actually switches motivation back on.In this episode you'll learnThe four words that reveal where your energy is going: should, have to, need and want, and why only one of them moves you forwardWhy shame keeps you repeating the exact behavior you are trying to changeWhat the still-face experiment reveals about attention, motivation and feeling stuckThe difference between being seen and being validated, and why praise never fixes itThe real cause of burnout according to burnout research, and why rest alone does not fix itThe two ways people cope with feeling unwanted, and why both keep you stuckA simple one-week experiment to find your motivation againWhy do I have no motivation after losing my job?Because a layoff, a redundancy or being managed out is an experience of being unwanted, and the human system goes still when attention and value are withdrawn. That is not laziness and it is not a flaw. It is the same response the still-face experiment shows in infants. Rest and pressure do not fix it, because neither one is the missing input.Why can't I make myself do what I want?Wanting is not willpower. Effort runs on wanting, and wanting runs on being seen. When something cuts the third one, the other two fail behind it. Motivation returns when you are seen for who you actually are, not when you push harder.The four wordsShould looks at what is missing. Have to looks at obligation. Need looks at lack. Want looks at the thing itself. Want is the only one that pulls you toward your goal.Research mentionedThe still-face experiment, Tronick and colleagues, 1978Donald Winnicott on the mirror role of the mother and the false selfCarl Rogers, 1957, on the core conditions of therapeutic changeNorcross and Lambert on the therapeutic relationship as the strongest predictor of outcomeMaslach and Leiter, the six mismatches that drive burnoutHebbian learning, neurons that fire together wire togetherJoe Hudson on shame, wants and the 10 percent more enjoyment experimentTry this weekPick one thing you keep telling yourself you should do.

Then notice which of the four words you are using.Coffee and a chat?If you are capable and still feel stuck, grab a coffee and let's talk it through. Twenty minutes, no pitch, nothing to prepare.

Send us Fan MailA senior leader says they would love to help, promises introductions and resources, and then goes quiet. You follow up and hear nothing.It is easy to start combing through what you did wrong. It's natural that most of us treat this as a problem on our end. But it's actually a negotiation. You need something from someone who has no obligation to give it and no urgency of their own, and how you handle that gap decides whether you get the support you were promised.This episode is about shifting from wondering what you did wrong to asking what in the situation needs to change.In this episode, I'll cover:Stop reading someone else's silence as a verdict on youSee why a warm yes in the room doesn't always become actionRethink what your follow-up is actually there to do
The meeting was an Agent Power Huddle focused on scripting, with Ed Lane teaching about “reverse offers,” where the seller writes an offer to a specific buyer. Ed explained how he recently used this technique to put a $1.5 million listing in escrow, detailing the use of a 2-1 buydown as a sweetener and how to structure, present, and negotiate these offers. He discussed when to use reverse offers, how to select the right buyer, and how to address seller objections about appearing desperate or giving away leverage. Alyson shared her challenges with a slow-moving listing and discussed marketing efforts, potential renovations, and the use of AI and lender-funded rehab programs. The conversation also covered REO business, with Ed and Alyson discussing REOX, Five Star, and their experiences with bank-owned properties and asset managers. Ed emphasized the value of attending conferences for building relationships and generating business.
The meeting, led by Ed Lane, focused on the concept of a "moving concierge" program, which helps sellers increase their home's value without out-of-pocket expenses. Ed explained that this approach can include pre-listing rehabs and other services to facilitate a move. He detailed the importance of offering multiple selling options to clients, including cash offers, selling as-is, or selling as-repaired. Ed shared scripts and dialogues for discussing these options with sellers, emphasizing the use of a "magical one-pager" to present three scenarios with CMAs. He also discussed the criteria for determining if a rehab is worthwhile, suggesting a 40% ROI as a rule of thumb. Ed mentioned tools like Blue Hammer for cost estimates and the use of Express Offers for cash bids. The session concluded with Ed offering to help participants implement the moving concierge approach and announcing a future topic on the "three values dialogue."
The meeting, led by Ed Lane, focused on teaching the "power of three" script for real estate listing appointments. Ed explained that most agents give sellers a price range, which he argued shows a lack of certainty. He advocated for presenting three concrete numbers: the market value, the list price strategy, and the ultimate sale price. Ed emphasized that this approach differentiates agents by demonstrating confidence and strategy, rather than guessing. He also discussed the importance of inoculating sellers to market shifts and recommended using a cancellation agreement to empower clients. The session concluded with Ed offering to answer questions, but none were asked.

Most organizations don't have a brand storytelling problem. They have a negotiation problem. When sales, marketing, and IT each champion their own version of the company story, the result is narrative entropy — the slow fragmentation of your brand message across every channel, every team, and every customer touchpoint. And in the age of AI-powered search, that fragmentation doesn't just confuse your audience. It gets scraped, amplified, and fed back into the market as your brand identity. Attia Qureshi knows how to stop it. A negotiation and influence expert with two decades of experience, Attia has brokered agreements in Fortune 500 boardrooms, university classrooms, and conflict zones around the world — including negotiating with cartel-controlled farmers on behalf of the U.S. State Department in Colombia. She is a former MIT faculty member, adjunct professor at the University of Michigan, founder of Attia Qureshi Consulting, and author of the national bestseller Never Settle: Persuasion and Negotiation Skills to Get What You Want, which Daniel Pink calls a book that will "train you how to move through the world." In this episode of the Business of Story, Park Howell and Attia explore how relational, interest-based negotiation is the missing discipline inside StoryOps — the practice of developing, operationalizing, and governing your brand narrative across every department in your organization. In this episode you will learn: Why sales and marketing fight over brand story — and the negotiation framework that ends it How to map the interests of every internal stakeholder so you can build genuine cross-departmental buy-in around one sovereign brand narrative Why narrative entropy accelerates in the age of AI — and how StoryOps, powered by negotiation, is your best defense Resources mentioned in this episode: Attia Qureshi Consulting: atiaqureshi.com Never Settle by Attia Qureshi and John Richardson — available at all major retailers Free internal influence guide: atiaqureshi.com/story Business of Story Brand Story Genie™: businessofstory.com

In this new series on Unlocking Your Power at Work, Anne and Frances dig into how to discover, build, and use your power, explore common power dynamics in the workplace, and learn from people who use their full power with honesty and swagger. Kara Swisher is one of the most influential voices in media and has built a career holding the powerful accountable. In this episode, she reflects with Anne and Frances on her own path to power and what she's learned from watching some people become corrupted by power while others learn to wield it for good. She also argues that people don't leave jobs early or often enough, and makes the case for pursuing more than just the opportunities that are offered to you.Featured guestFollow Kara Swisher on Instagram, LinkedIn, and ThreadsListen and watch On with Kara SwisherConnect with the teamFollow Anne on Instagram and LinkedIn Follow Frances on Instagram and LinkedInWatch Fixable videos on youtube.com/@TEDPodsVisit Anne and Frances' websiteHave a question you want Anne and Frances to solve?

Shiur given by Rabbi Menachem Apter on Yomim Tovim Rosh Hashana.
Angela Duckworth, the psychologist who made “grit” a household word, sat down with Lewis and confessed something her research almost missed. Effort alone doesn't build a great life. The situation you're in does, and no one shapes that situation more than the person you marry. She traces it back to her own mother, a gifted painter who gave up her art for fifty years married to a man who walked past her paintings without a word.Then Angela goes further, into a marriage crisis she and her husband Jason never talked about publicly. Both of them were try-harder people who worked themselves into misery during the 2008 crash, until Angela told him on a walk that she cried every night and didn't want to be married anymore. What saved them wasn't more grit. It was therapy, three therapists between two people, and a willingness to change the situation instead of just pushing through it.Lewis matches her story with his own, requiring therapy before he'd even commit to dating Martha, because every past relationship had only gone to therapy once it was already collapsing. Angela ties it back to the Pygmalion effect. Your confidence is borrowed from the people who believe in you before you believe in yourself.By the end you'll want to look around at your own life and ask who's actually bringing out your best. Angela's mother didn't paint again until her husband died. Now, at 91, she paints every day.Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your BestGrit: The Power of Passion and PerseveranceAngela's InstagramAngela's LinkedInAngela's FacebookIn this episode you will:Discover why proximity, not just grit, determines whether your effort ever pays offLearn how changing your situation, not trying harder, rescued a marriage on the brink of divorceRecognize the fundamental attribution error and why the power of situation is invisible until you name itChallenge the shame around therapy and see how it can rebuild a struggling relationshipUncover the Pygmalion effect and how others' belief in you shapes your own confidenceFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1977More SOG episodes we think you'll love!

Send us Fan Mail"You're really confusing." That's what my boss told me one day, out of nowhere, with no explanation or context. I spent weeks questioning whether I was even good at my job. Then I watched someone else say almost the exact same thing to her, and she understood it instantly. The problem was never how smart I was. It was how I set her up to hear it.This week I'm breaking down what changed once I saw that difference, and why framing the way people hear you decides whether you get what you want.In this episode, I'll cover:Recognize why confusion isn't about intelligence, it's about missing contextSet up your ideas so people can actually follow youAsk a real question at the end that keeps you in control of where the conversation goes
You say you really want it. So why do you procrastinate, lose motivation, get distracted—or sometimes just stop trying altogether? Maybe the problem isn't how badly you want it. Maybe it's what you're willing to do to get it. Let's talk about it. WHAT'S NEXT?
This was a Scripting Fridays session of Agent Power Huddle led by Ed Lane, focusing on how to work with buyers in the current shifting market. Ed discussed the definition of buyer's versus seller's markets, explaining that a buyer's market is defined by having more than 6 months of inventory, and emphasized the importance of calculating specific market metrics for different price bands and neighborhoods. He provided scripts and strategies for buyers to negotiate with sellers, including advice to ask for repair credits or rate buy-downs instead of price reductions, and stressed the importance of analyzing individual properties rather than relying on broad market statistics. Ed also announced his custom GPT tool at whatwouldedsay.com for agents to get scripting help outside of the weekly sessions.

Everybody wants something. Success. A relationship that works. The version of themselves they see in their head. Inspired by Ben Havn's "Looking Good," Niyi breaks down the three things that actually get you there, and none of them are luck. First, you have to learn. Most of the frustration you're carrying comes from not knowing what you're doing, and getting your information from people on Instagram who don't know either. Read the books. Take the courses. Get real knowledge instead of guessing your way through life. Second, you have to believe in yourself, and that belief isn't something you just decide to have. You build it through reflection. Knowing what you want and why you want it. Facing the parts of yourself you've been avoiding instead of running from them. Third, you have to put in the work. Deep work on yourself first, then work in the world making it happen. Knowledge without action is nothing. Belief without action is nothing. Set the goal. Build the plan. Follow through until you get it. That's the whole game. 2 days left to join Lock In. $90 to lock in your one goal for 90 days. Enroll now at imnotyou.com/lockin

In this episode, Kevin and Alan converse about why external success rarely delivers the self-worth, confidence, or peace people expect it to. They break down the difference between gaining a result and building the internal capacity to hold it. More money, attention, status, or possessions can improve parts of your life, but they can also magnify insecurity, responsibility, and the work you have avoided.Kevin and Alan share how self-respect is built through disciplined action, self-trust, and a realistic view of what success actually requires. They also challenge the belief that there is a finish line where life becomes easy, problem-free, or permanently validating. Your goals matter. But the person you become while pursuing them matters more. Build the kind of self-respect that does not need a publicist._______________________NLU is more than a podcast.

Ed Lane conducted a training session on how to navigate the real estate market during the slower season from September to January. He presented a structured strategy involving listing homes in September/October, temporarily removing them from the market by Halloween if they don't sell, and then relisting them on the third Thursday of January. Ed emphasized the importance of not offering opinions about timing to sellers, instead using statistics like December being his third highest transaction volume month, and explained how this strategy works by resetting days on market and capitalizing on buyer psychology after the holidays. During the Q&A portion, Alyson asked about competing listings in her neighborhood and whether to wait for a price reduction until after Labor Day, to which Ed advised against making changes during 3-day weekends and suggested framing the decision between going live the following Thursday or waiting until after Labor Day.
This transcript captures a "Scripting Fridays" training session led by Ed Lane, a real estate agent with 39 years of experience and over 3,000 sales. Ed focused on database reactivation strategies for real estate agents, emphasizing that the most valuable prospecting tool is an agent's existing database of past clients and contacts. He outlined a three-step framework: segment contacts into categories (hot, warm, cold, dead), set up trigger messages, and create follow-up sequences using multiple touch points across different channels. Ed shared specific scripting examples for re-engaging with past clients, including using current market updates, offering contractor referrals, and hosting client appreciation events with philanthropic elements. The session included a Q&A portion where Jodi asked about starting touch points and addressing Zillow's AVM (Automated Valuation Model) estimates, with Ed providing detailed responses about handling Zillow's credibility issues and using specific legal references like Senate Bill 5191 to build trust with prospects.

In this episode, we're breaking down the 3 things you need to create the life you actually want: focus, emotional state, and beliefs.

The meeting focused on strategies for discussing pricing with sellers in a softening real estate market. Ed Lane shared insights and scripts for agents to use when setting seller expectations, emphasizing the importance of understanding current market conditions, such as months of inventory and median home prices. He discussed common seller objections and provided tested responses, including the use of data and silence to help sellers adjust their pricing expectations. The conversation also covered the importance of pricing homes correctly from the start to avoid prolonged days on market and the risks of overpricing. Alyson shared a recent experience with a difficult cooperating agent, and Ed advised on maintaining fiduciary duty and handling aggressive negotiation tactics. The conversation ended with a brief discussion on MLS visibility and the importance of broad listing exposure.
Send us Fan MailA senior leader wraps up a conversation and asks what they can do for you. You reach for the question you've been taught to ask.

But that question does something to the person across from you that you don't see happening in the moment, and by the time you realize it, the impression is already set.There's a specific swap that changes what someone walks away thinking about you, and once you hear it, you'll notice how often you've been doing the opposite.In this episode, I'll cover:The real reason that "blind spots" question works against youA better question to ask when someone offers to help you growHow to be intentional about who you ask, and when

Send us Fan MailThere's a moment after every promotion where you have a decision to make, even if you don't realize you're making it. Keep leading the way that got you here, or figure out what this new role actually needs from you. Most leaders default to the first one without noticing.That default is a negotiation problem, not a personality trait. The way you show up sets the pattern for how everyone around you responds, and if you don't reset it, neither will they.That's the shift most new leaders skip, and it's not automatic just because your title changed.In this episode, I'll cover:Say the shift out loud, to your team and to yourselfAsk more questions instead of jumping straight to answersAnticipate what your boss needs before they have to ask
Send us Fan MailIf you've ever been asked “What do you want?” and your mind goes blank, you're not alone, and it's usually not because you're clueless. It's often because you've trained yourself to believe you can't have what you want, so naming it feels risky. We slow that moment down and show you how to rebuild desire, clarity, and trust in yourself without turning your current life into a problem.We share our six-step framework for getting what you want, built from mindset coaching, spiritual alignment, and practical action. We start with honesty and move into real clarity: defining what “a loving marriage,” “a better job,” “confidence,” or “more money” actually means for you. We also connect the dots to neuroscience and the reticular activating system, because specificity changes what you notice, what you tolerate, and how you discern what is for you.From there we talk openness, faith, and the part most people skip: showing up like it's already done while still taking steps that make it possible. Then we tackle limiting beliefs head-on, including the “crab effect” that pulls you back right when you start gaining momentum, and how to rewrite those thoughts so you can keep moving.If this helped, subscribe, share it with someone you love, and leave a five-star review so more people can find the show.

Ed conducted a training session on the "Color Picture CMA Tour" technique, a 15-year-old method he uses to help sellers become more realistic about their home's value without directly persuading them. The process involves creating a competitive analysis package with at least four comparable properties, presenting them as a game where sellers guess sale prices, and gradually retraining their expectations through a controlled comparison process. Ed demonstrated how the technique helps reduce sellers' overoptimistic price expectations by leveraging their natural desire to win a contest, resulting in approximately 80% of listings being successfully obtained after implementing this approach.

Ed Lane conducted a Scripting Fridays training session focused on coaching sellers to set realistic home prices. He explained that pricing is a marketing decision, not an emotional one, and outlined four key markets sellers must consider: seller's market, agent's market, buyer's market, and actual market. Ed discussed the importance of the first two weeks as the most critical period for generating buyer interest and warned against wasting this window with overpricing. He emphasized using data-driven CMA analysis to support pricing decisions and shared scripts for communicating with sellers about market value versus list price strategy. The session included specific guidance on how to present comparable sales data and when to implement price reductions. Jodi asked about handling a rural listing that had been on the market for over six months with minimal showings, and Ed provided advice on price reduction strategies and MLS relisting policies.
This was a Scripting Fridays session of the Agent Power Huddle led by Ed Lane, who presented a deep dive on the Moving Concierge Program as a tool for converting seller leads. Ed explained how the program offers sellers three options for selling their homes: cash offer, as-is on the market, or as-repaired on the market, and shared scripts and tools for presenting this approach to clients. He emphasized the importance of demonstrating a 40% return on investment (ROI) before proceeding with repairs and using a side-by-side comparison tool to help clients visualize the different scenarios. During the Q&A portion, Alyson shared success using Ed's whatwouldedsay.com chat tool to help a difficult client situation involving an emotional seller in Oregon who was planning to raise his price by $100,000 monthly despite poor showings, and discussed her growing REO business with positive feedback from contractors.
Ed Lane conducted a Scripting Fridays session of Agent Power Huddle focused on difficult conversations as the real estate market shifts. Ed discussed strategies for handling challenging situations including telling sellers their homes aren't worth what they think, implementing price reductions, addressing buyers with financial instability, and managing unrealistic client expectations. He emphasized the importance of honesty, empathy, and proper timing in these conversations, explaining that agents who avoid difficult conversations often pay higher costs later. Ed shared specific scripts and techniques for delivering difficult news while building trust, and encouraged participants to identify their most challenging conversations and develop scripts for those situations.
Send us Fan MailThere's a version of negotiation that has nothing to do with raises or job offers. It happens in ordinary conversations, when an agreement quietly becomes something bigger than what you actually said yes to.Most people don't catch it in the moment. They catch it later, and by then they've already started doubting themselves instead of questioning what changed. That self-doubt is doing more damage than the shift itself.I'm breaking down why this happens, how to spot it before it becomes a habit, and what to do the next time you feel that gap between what you agreed to and what you're now expected to do.In this episode, I'll cover:Why scope creep is a negotiation problem most people never label as oneThe difference between doubting your memory and correctly identifying a shiftWhat to do the moment you notice the gap, before it becomes a pattern

Brant Pinvidic, Hollywood producer and author of The 3 Minute Rule, shares how he accidentally discovered his pitch methodology after being asked to help investment bankers stop putting people to sleep. He breaks down the WHAC method (What is it, How does it work, Are you sure, Can you do it), explains the critical difference between informative and engaging content, and demonstrates his framework live by helping refine the Unmistakable Creative podcast pitch. Brant discusses why most pitches fail in the first 3 minutes, how to capture attention through statements rather than questions, and why simplicity beats complexity when communicating ideas.

You said it would be the last warning. You meant it this time. And somehow you are standing in the hallway with your voice raised, wondering how you ended up here again. If consequences have quietly become your first move, and you are starting to suspect they are not actually working, this conversation is for you.

As judges continue to weigh in, President Trump is finding that despite his litigious efforts, he can't always get what he wants. Mary and Andrew begin this week with the latest fallout from his $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund, which is now under judicial review after a group of federal judges filed a motion arguing that the original lawsuit that prompted the fund was “itself a fraud on the court.” This prompted the news, first reported by Axios, that the Trump administration would abandon the fund altogether. Mary and Andrew tie this into another instance in which the administration is losing in the courts, with Judge Mehta's decision refusing to dismiss the indictment of Oath Keepers' leader Stewart Rhodes, among others whose sentences were commuted. They then move to a ruling ordering the removal of Trump's name from the Kennedy Center facade, a setback in his attempt to reshape the renowned preforming arts center. And after an update on the criminal case against the Southern Poverty Law Center, Andrew shares some insight into his recent New York Times op-ed which offers a path to stop vindictive prosecutions altogether.

“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” We've all heard it countless times. But where did that idea come from—and is it actually true? Researchers have taken a much closer look at breakfast and the findings may surprise you. Source: https://www.bmj.com/content/364/bmj.l42 Whether you realize it or not, you negotiate all day long—with your spouse, kids, friends, coworkers, and even strangers. The ability to persuade people and navigate difficult conversations can dramatically improve your personal and professional life. Attia Qureshi has spent decades teaching negotiation and persuasion strategies to leaders and organizations. In our conversation, she explains the subtle skills that make people more influential, why persuasion is often misunderstood, and how small changes in communication can help you get better outcomes without being manipulative or aggressive. Attia is founder of AQ Consulting, former MIT faculty member, adjunct professor at the University of Michigan, and co-author of Never Settle: Persuasion & Negotiation Skills to Get What You Want (https://amzn.to/4ugR3US). Attia's exclusive link for SYSK listeners: https://www.attiaqureshi.com/something Most people embrace emotions like joy and happiness while trying to avoid emotions such as anger, jealousy, shame, envy, and regret. But those darker emotions may actually contain important information about who you are, what you value, and what's happening beneath the surface of your life. Daniel Smith, psychotherapist and author of Hard Feelings: Finding the Wisdom in Our Darkest Emotions (https://amzn.to/4dPzBkw), explains why these uncomfortable emotions exist, what purpose they serve, and why understanding them may be essential for emotional growth and self-awareness. Human attraction is far more complicated than simply “good looks.” In fact, repeated exposure, familiarity, attention, and several other subtle factors can quietly make someone seem more attractive over time—even when nothing about their appearance changes. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/evolutionary-human-sciences/article/visual-attention-to-faces-during-attractiveness-and-dominance-judgements/38F4497B251EFE2D8ED9F4D37F82D9C5 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS POCKET HOSE: For a limited time, when you purchase a new Pocket Hose Ballistic, you'll get a FREE 360 degree rotating pocket pivot and a FREE thumb drive nozzle!
