The stakes of a negotiation are usually obvious. But the interests, the things that actually matter to the other person but never make it into the contract, are often overlooked. And when that happens, both sides lose.In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between stakes and interests, how to spot what is really driving someone's decision, and how to use that insight to get better results in every kind of conversation. I share real examples, a simple strategy from Harvard, and three ways you can start applying this today, even if you are not in a formal negotiation.In this episode, I'll cover:The difference between what is on the table and what is driving the decisionHow understanding someone's interests can shift the entire conversationA 30-second mindset shift that leads to better outcomes_____________________
If you're making decisions just to get them off your plate, you're not making good ones. When mental fatigue sets in, clarity goes out the window, and that's when bad calls happen.

You'll walk away with simple shifts to protect your energy, create space to think, and make better decisions, especially when it matters most.In this episode, I'll cover:How mental fatigue sabotages your decision-making.Real examples of what fatigue costs you and how to catch it before it does.Three tactics to protect your energy and plan for better outcomes._____________________

Do you struggle to negotiate your worth -- or lose confidence and end up accepting less than you deserve?If this sounds familiar, you're not alone -- and it's exactly what we're diving into on today's episode.I remember walking into my boss's office, palms sweating and heart racing.It was early in my career and my first real negotiation discussion. I was about to ask for the pay-rise I believed I deserved based on my performance and financial results.Despite this, I became tongue-tied and ended up accepting terms I wasn't happy with. Less than what I knew I was worth (and one of my male colleagues had negotiated).Because it doesn't matter how confident you are in front of clients or speaking about your area of expertise. I worked in sales and negotiated with large corporations every day. Many of my clients are lawyers and negotiate for a living.But when it comes to our careers and ‘selling ourselves' many people struggle.Whether you want to negotiate a pay-rise, promotion or new job offer, you MUST know your value and how to communicate it with confidence.Over the past 17 years, I've helped hundreds of leaders secure salary increases and learn to effectively negotiate. And with annual performance review season upon us, I'm pulling back the curtain on my biggest insider secrets.In today's episode, I'm sharing six simple strategies to help you confidently negotiate your worth -- and get EXACTLY what you want!You'll learn:Two critical factors you MUST know to set yourself up for success -- long before the conversation beginsThe ONE question you need to answer to put yourself in a strong negotiation positionHow to give yourself room to negotiate and increase the chances of getting what you wantA simple mindset shift to boost your confidence before (and during) the conversationWhat to do when your request is declined -- and how to keep the door openThe negotiation habit that helps you stay in control and avoid accepting less than you deserveSo hit play NOW -- and let's dive in!Thanks for listening.
