Podcasts about Get What You Want

Ever walk into a meeting and immediately lose your footing, even though you were completely prepared? There's a reason for that. Too many of us focus only on what we're going to say, not where we're saying it or who actually holds the power.In this episode, I'm sharing the overlooked skills that separate confident communicators from everyone else. From reading the power dynamics in the room to knowing exactly when to stop talking and close, this is about making your ask count. If you're not paying attention to timing, decision makers, and the energy in the room, you might be negotiating with the wrong person entirely.By the end, you'll know how to walk into any room, high stakes or not, and actually see what's going on.In this episode, I'll cover:How to identify who actually holds the power in the roomWhy your timing might be your biggest leverageThe small signals that make or break your ask_____________________

Getting what you want doesn't start with doing more. It starts with knowing what matters and letting go of what doesn't.This week I'm joined by my friend Monisha Longacre, author of Practical Productivity and founder of Productivity 101. She's spent decades leading in tech and building systems that help high performers stop spinning and start choosing.We talk about how easy it is to give your time away without even realizing it, and why real productivity starts with clarity. If you've been saying yes to everything and wondering why you're burnt out, this conversation will help you reset. Because being a great leader, a strong advocate, and a confident decision maker all require the same skill...knowing what not to do.In this episode, I'll cover:How to create your own “to-don't” list and why it's more powerful than you thinkA mindset shift for saying no without guiltWhy protecting your time is key to getting what you wantConnect with Monisha:www.productivity101.bizwww.linkedin.com/in/mlongacre_____________________

Many of us have parts of our lives where we want to grow and progress, things we want to do that we haven't done before, and yet, we hesitate and don't move forward because it can be so uncomfortable to do something new, to step into change. I call this the certainty of misery. We're not happy with where we are, but at least it's comfortable, we're certain how our life will be from day to day. If we can courage up and instead learn to step into the misery of uncertainty, we can create in our lives something that matches, and maybe even exceeds, what we dream of.

Ed led a mastermind on referral management, highlighting the importance of CRMs and classifying contacts into A, B, and C categories to identify top referral sources. He shared quick strategies for contacting databases, using memory joggers, and coaching contacts on how to refer effectively. Ed emphasized the need for a strong, memorable value proposition (“gold brick”) to stand out with clients and referral partners. He also discussed lead management, 17-touch client engagement methods, and incorporating charitable events for stronger connections. The session wrapped with guidance on handling buyers wanting to switch agents, stressing credibility, rapport, and broker consultation.

Not all feedback is helpful. Sometimes it's vague. Sometimes it's self-serving. And sometimes it hits a nerve even when it doesn't feel true. If you've ever been told something like "you're not strategic enough" and didn't know how to respond, this episode will help you find your next step.I'm sharing how to handle feedback that feels off, how to keep it from derailing your confidence, and what it really means to manage perception as a leader. Feedback is just data. What matters is what you do with it.In this episode, I'll cover:How to respond when feedback surprises, triggers, or confuses youA step-by-step framework to shift someone's perception of youWhy perception management is a leadership skill, not a vanity playVerbatim Framework Worksheet: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ecg6A4vx9EECml1id8exW4pS7OZPd72F?usp=sharing_____________________

Ed hosted a special Labor Day edition of Scripting Fridays, centering the discussion on value propositions and the role of consistent follow-up in real estate deals. He described a value proposition as a “gold brick” — something so compelling that buyers or sellers can't resist meeting with you. Technical issues delayed his presentation software, but the group focused on comparing and practicing different approaches to scripting.

Most relationship conflict isn't about the issue at hand—it's about whose anxiety gets cared for. Whether it's parenting, money, cleaning, or how often you see friends, couples often end up in a tug-of-war, each fighting for relief. But what if the goal wasn't winning… but finding a third option where you both get what you need? In this episode, Justin and Abi dive deep into the art of healthy negotiation. They unpack why so many of us default to passivity, demands, or self-abandonment—and how childhood experiences shape the way we advocate for our wants and needs. Through real-life stories and playful banter, they offer practical ways to replace power struggles with curiosity, co-creation, and emotional win-wins. If you've ever felt stuck in resentment, misunderstood in your relationship, or unsure how to get your needs met without conflict—this episode will give you language, hope, and a way forward.

Ever walked away from a conversation with a senior leader and wondered, did they even hear me? It's not just what you say that matters. It's how you say it, when you say it, and whether you've thought about what they need from you. Executive communication isn't about filling space or adding polish. It's about clarity, timing, and making it easy for someone to say yes.In this episode, I'm sharing what actually works when you need your message to land, whether you're presenting in a room, sending a high-stakes email, or making a quick ask in the hallway.In this episode, I'll cover:How to structure your message so decision-makers stay engagedWhy considering their interests (not just your own) changes everythingThe common missteps that get smart professionals ignored_____________________

In this week's mastermind, Ed Lane shared his proven systems for building long-term success through client referrals and engagement. With 80–90% of business coming from referrals, Ed emphasized that the key to growth isn't chasing leads—it's staying top of mind with your sphere and past clients. Key highlights included:Referral Power – How trust transfers from one client to another and why consistent touchpoints drive results (Ed generated 3 new listings in a week from referrals).Engagement Strategies – The impact of handwritten notes, a 70/30 personal-to-business social media mix, and client events with a charitable twist.Relationship Framework – Categorizing clients into A, B, and C groups, rewarding referrers as VIPs, and using the “Mayor Campaign” script to generate loyalty.Smart Automation with a Personal Touch – Combining CRMs, AI-driven market updates, and thoughtful seasonal gifts to make lasting impressions.Standing Out as a Broker – Crafting a unique, compelling response to “What do you do?” that sets you apart from every other agent.Irresistible Value Propositions – Why your offer should feel like presenting a $600,000 gold brick—so good clients can't say no.Ed wrapped the session by encouraging agents to refine 3–4 consistent activities to stay connected, underscoring that referrals come from connection, not just transactions.

We wait. For permission. For someone to notice. For the timing to be right. But the truth is, your career doesn't move forward just because you're doing great work. It moves when you opt in.Cerys Goodall, COO of Vetster, knows this firsthand. She went from biotech dropout to C-suite leader by saying yes before she felt ready. In this conversation, we talk about what shifts when you stop waiting and start raising your hand. Whether you're trying to grow your influence, navigate internal politics, or lead people with real intention, the most powerful thing you can do is show up for yourself first.This isn't about being loud or aggressive.

In this special Summer Series Flip episode, I'm so excited to share a conversation I had on the Brilliant Balance podcast with the amazing Cherylanne Skolnicki. We talk all about the journey of becoming—how I moved from chasing external success to aligning with the woman I'm meant to be, and how that shift has transformed the way I live, lead, and support others. I open up about what it means to create clarity (instead of waiting for it), rewrite the stories that keep us stuck, and take radical responsibility for the version of ourselves we're stepping into. We also dive into the evolution of my book Get What You Want, the truth about personal branding, and why I believe you shouldn't build your business based on who you used to be—but from the place of who you're becoming. This conversation is raw, honest, and such a beautiful reminder that you don't need to wait to become her—you can be her now. Liked this episode?

And the more that you can really own who you are. You say what you mean and mean what you say, and you don't say it mean, and you just own that with every bit of you. That is actually the ripple effect in the mirror that magnates people to you.” - Julie Solomon  “ What I really get hooked on is like, okay, what are you making up and telling yourself that, that person has? Because that's going to allow you to drop more into what it is that you want that's already inside you. If it wasn't inside you, you wouldn't see it in other people, good or bad, right? You can also do this with what you're wanting to shed, right?

Don't confuse Human Hacking with Manipulation...Like Everything there can be a Dark Side, but Now When It Is Used for Good What if you could ethically influence others, build instant rapport, and create lasting positive impressions—just by understanding human behavior more deeply? On the next episode of A New Direction with Coach Jay Izso, we welcome Christopher Hadnagy, world-renowned social engineer, cybersecurity expert, and bestselling author of Human Hacking: Win Friends, Influence People, and Leave Them Better Off for Having Met You. This is not your average conversation about relationships or persuasion—this is a masterclass in human connection rooted in psychology, empathy, and real-world application. Chris has spent his career studying how people think, communicate, and make decisions. In this episode, he reveals how the same principles used in cybersecurity and social engineering can be powerfully applied to everyday life through social engineering or "human hacking"—whether you're leading a team, building a business, networking, or simply trying to be a better version of yourself. From decoding body language to navigating tough conversations, Chris breaks down the tools to ethically influence outcomes while making others feel seen, heard, and valued. We'll dive into practical techniques of human hacking that go beyond manipulation and into the realm of authentic connection—where the goal isn't just to get what you want, but to genuinely elevate the lives of those around you. Chris calls it “leaving people better off for having met you,” and he'll show us how to make that mindset the foundation of everything we do. If you're a leader, coach, entrepreneur, or simply someone who wants to have more meaningful and effective interactions, this episode is for you. Join Coach Jay Izso and Chris Hadnagy as we explore the hidden power of human behavior—and how mastering human hacking can change your relationships, your business, and your life. If you are looking to hire a great speaker and master of practical influence, please go to Chris' website Social Engineer | The Experts in Social Engineering Chris Hadnagy book, "Human Hacking: Win Friends, Influence People, and Leave Them Better Off for Having Met You" is absolutely phenomenal!  He starts by taking in to one of his jobs trying to break into a high security facility and then moves us into how he is able to get past security to find sensitive information.  Hold on...it's his job!  He is paid to do this. But what is even better, Chris pulls back the curtain and literally shows us how to use social-engineering or "human hacking" for the good in our everyday conversations and relationships.  Wait!  Before you go down the road of thinking this is some form of "manipulation"...it's not.  Chris acknowledges there is a "dark side" to human hacking, but what if we could use these skills for good?  What if we used them to enhance our relationships, communicate more effectively, be better sales people, be more authentic sales  people and yes, even increase our bottom lines by doing things the right way. The book is filled with detail after detail of how we can use "human hacking" for good, and not for evil.  He also gives us the secrets behind the darker side of manipulation by showing us what exactly a "con artist" is trying to do to you and how they use their skills to phish out information. Powerful and fun.  Practical and authentic.  This book is an eye-opener for anyone who really wants to understand the psychology of ourselves and others and how we can use these powerful tools to truly make the world a better place.
