At 16, his grandmother fled Kraków after the Nazis killed her father, worked a New York factory floor beside her mother, and applied to every medical school in the state three years running before one finally said yes — then told her second-grade grandson that education is the only thing nobody can ever take away from him.Years later, David Rogier quit his venture capital job with no idea what he wanted to build, and his boss wrote him a check for $500,000 and told him to go think of something; the dark, formless year that followed became MasterClass, whose holding company still carries his grandmother's nickname. Launch day brought so few sales that he went home and cried, and by day four it was obvious he had a real business on his hands. In this conversation, David breaks down how he got Hollywood's biggest names to say yes, why he believes degrees and résumés are quickly becoming worthless, and the three kinds of jobs he thinks will actually survive AI. David Rogier is the founder and CEO of MasterClass, the platform that put instruction from Martin Scorsese, Christina Aguilera, Steph Curry, and dozens of other world-class practitioners into the hands of millions of learners. He built it from a single $500,000 check and has since launched MasterClass Executive, an AI-native alternative to the traditional MBA created in collaboration with OpenAI and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business.

Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how to build a pricing team where humans and AI each do what they do best. See how pricing analysts, managers, and executives can use AI to make smarter decisions—not just write better prompts.

What happens when AI buyers negotiate with AI sellers—and how it could reshape commercial pricing. 21:10 – Buying AI Isn't an AI Strategy. Why companies need a clear adoption plan before investing in more AI tools. 24:10 – The Pricing Advice That Never Gets Old. Why offering three options helps buyers compare your solutions instead of your competitors'. Key Takeaways: "Stop using AI like Google. Give it a role, give it context, then give it a task." – Adrienne Gordon "Stay in the same thread. Keep giving it feedback. It gets smarter." – Adrienne Gordon "When in doubt, put multiple AI agents against one another and let them check each other's work." – Adrienne Gordon People / Resources Mentioned: PriceSpace – Adrienne Gordon's pricing consultancy focused on AI adoption and commercial excellence.

Nine. And they represented 20% of their spend, their marketing spend.” - Brian Will “ And at some point, I started questioning me.

The rules were never designed to make everyone equally powerful.In this episode of High Level Conversations, 19Keys sits down with Dr. Boyce Watkins for an unfiltered discussion about economics, ownership, education, artificial intelligence, politics, family infrastructure, Black business, and the systems required to create real freedom.The conversation begins with a critical question: What matters more in the age of AI—credentials, experience, mastery, or the ability to build your own system?From there, they break down the difference between earning money and controlling an economy, why community leaders must have sustainable business models, what it truly means to be pro-Black, and why Black wealth cannot grow without intentional investment, mentorship, protection networks, family offices, and institution-building.They also examine:Why criticism and cancellation are unavoidable when your work has real impact.Why Black men remain one of the most under-mentored groups in America.How billionaires, celebrities, and athletes should think about community responsibility.Why investing in Black businesses is more powerful than treating the community like a charity case.Whether artificial intelligence and technology stocks are experiencing a bubble.How to invest during economic uncertainty without gambling on hype.Why systems create powerful individuals—not the other way around.How families can build banks, investment structures, and generational leverage.Donald Trump, the MAGA movement, political independence, reparations, and voting power.Why economic strength requires strategy, negotiation, coordination, and the willingness to think much bigger.This conversation challenges the idea that freedom will come from being accepted by existing institutions. It presents another pathway: understand the system, study how power operates, build your own infrastructure, and position the next generation to thrive instead of merely survive.WHY YOU SHOULD WATCHThis episode is for entrepreneurs, investors, parents, educators, community builders, creators, and leaders who want to understand the deeper relationship between money and power.You will learn:The difference between income, ownership, influence, and economic control.How to protect your mission from criticism, censorship, and outside interference.Why mentorship and sponsorship can change the trajectory of Black men.How family offices and family banks preserve wealth across generations.How to approach AI, technology, stocks, and long-term investing intelligently.Why political power must be negotiated before support is given.How communities can transform influence into infrastructure and economic force.BUILD YOUR NETWORK, COMMUNITY, AND DIGITAL ECONOMYVisit ZIION.IOFREE AI AND INCOME WEBINARFor access to the free webinar from 19Keys about artificial intelligence and using AI to create income, join the free webinar inside the Black Business School by visiting:19keys.com/bbsEPISODE TIMESTAMPS00:00 — Economics Is Warfare02:00 — Credentials, Artificial Intelligence and the Meaning of Mastery10:00 — Turning Your Greatest Weakness Into a Strength15:00 — Truth, Activism and the Cost of Going Against the Grain18:00 — Can Black America Still Build Economic Sovereignty?25:00 — Understanding Power, Criticism and Opposition28:00 — Separating Constructive Criticism From Distraction32:00 — “You Can't Cancel a Soldier”36:00 — Why Community Empowerment Needs a Sustainable Business Model40:00 — What Does Being Pro-Black Actually Mean?42:00 — Health, Wealth and Relationships52:00 — Systemic Racism and Systems Thinking54:00 — Manufacturing Black Privilege Through Ownership56:00 — Why Black Men Are Severely Under-Mentored01:00:00 — Building Mentorship, Sponsorship and Protection Networks01:07:00 — Black Unity, Michael Jordan and Intentional Employment01:08:00 — Do Black Billionaires Owe the Community?01:14:00 — Family Offices and Who Controls Black Wealth01:17:00 — Investment Versus Charity01:22:00 — Investing in Black AI, Technology and Venture Capital01:23:00 — Stop Thinking Small: Building Billion-Dollar Ideas01:27:00 — Creating Independent Media and Economic Systems01:29:00 — Why Real Power Moves Strategically01:31:00 — Economics Is Warfare: Prepare to Be Attacked01:32:00 — Building Outside the Matrix With ZIION01:39:00 — The Hidden History of Black Coalitions and Nation-Building01:43:00 — Is Artificial Intelligence an Economic Bubble?01:46:00 — How to Invest During Market Uncertainty01:49:00 — Elon Musk, Key-Man Risk and Technology Empires01:51:00 — Powerful Individuals Are Products of Powerful Systems01:54:00 — Quantum Computing and Undervalued Future Technologies01:59:00 — What Could the Next 10 to 20 Years Look Like?02:04:00 — Healthcare, Capitalism and the Incentive to Manage Disease02:09:00 — Money, Ethics and Financial Consciousness02:14:00 — Family Banks, Infrastructure and Generational Capital02:18:00 — Why Schools Teach Employment Instead of Ownership02:20:00 — Turning Your Family Name Into an Institution02:23:00 — Self-Worth, Asset Value and Building Your Own Name02:25:00 — The MAGA Question02:28:00 — Studying Power Without Worshipping Powerful People02:30:00 — How to Give Your Children a Financial Head Start02:37:00 — Stop Depending on Systems That Were Not Built for You02:43:00 — Power, Competition and Self-Preservation02:45:00 — Reparations, Negotiation and Leverage02:48:00 — Putting the Black Vote in Escrow02:50:00 — The New Political Classes02:55:00 — Leaders, Impact and Building Economic Infrastructure02:57:00 — Final Words and Closinghttps://youtu.be/_RBftcP3Gng Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/19keys/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Ep. 1014. Are you negotiating with your customer... or negotiating with yourself?In this episode I'm talking about Wallet Share—one of the biggest psychological mistakes we salespeople make.Too often, we assume a customer won't buy because we wouldn't. We project our own financial comfort level onto the customer, mistake silence for rejection, and start offering discounts or concessions before the customer has even objected.That's not negotiating with the customer. That's negotiating with yourself.In this episode, you'll learn: What Wallet Share is Why salespeople talk themselves out of deals How to stop negotiating from your own budget Why silence isn't always rejection How to present numbers with confidence and let the customer decide Whether you're selling cars, real estate, insurance, technology, or any high-ticket product, this sales principle will help you negotiate with more confidence and close more deals.Remember: "It's your obligation to give your customer options. It's their right to say yes or no."Don't negotiate from your wallet. Negotiate from their goals.TEXT ME!Support the show

When you hear the word negotiation, you probably think about salary discussions or business deals.But what if I told you that you're negotiating dozens of times every single day?From asking your spouse to help with dinner, to dividing household responsibilities, setting boundaries at work, or saying no without guilt—negotiation is happening constantly.

Send us Fan MailDivorce can leave you holding a stack of statements and a knot in your stomach, wondering what you actually own, what it means, and whether retirement is still possible. We sit down with Jesse Hurst, a CPA and Chartered Financial Analyst, to talk through the real-world money decisions that hit right after a divorce and how to replace fear with a plan you can live with. Jesse's twist is simple and surprisingly effective: use pop culture, music, and familiar stories to make complicated financial concepts stick, so you're not just being “told” what to do, you understand it. We dig into why people often feel frozen after a major loss, and how to restart with small steps: take an inventory, clarify what matters most to you, and map out the levers that actually drive outcomes. That includes cash flow planning after spousal support ends, deciding when to claim Social Security, and turning a collection of accounts like a 401(k), IRA, brokerage account, CDs, and home equity into a coordinated retirement strategy with an age-appropriate risk profile. We also get concrete about taxes and planning traps. Jesse explains why divorce can come with cost basis headaches that don't exist after a spouse's death, and why filing status changes can feel like a penalty when someone becomes a widow or widower. If real estate is part of the picture, we talk about rental property cash flow, concentration risk, and when selling a non-producing property can improve liquidity and diversification. If you're rebuilding after divorce and want a calmer, clearer way to think about retirement planning and financial independence, hit play.

Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Attia Qureshi, a coach and negotiation expert who is co-author, with John Richardson, of Never Settle. There's no shortage of great negotiation advice out there, yet in real conversations with real stakes and real emotions, that advice often fails to turn into action. This book tackles that gap between insight and habit. Attia shares why emotions are not a distraction from negotiation but central to it, why getting clear about what you actually want is harder than it sounds, and how we leave value on the table without realizing it. You'll hear practical stories, from resetting a difficult relationship with a glass of lemonade to expanding the pie in a salary negotiation, plus small daily exercises for building resilience to rejection and learning to say no in a way that strengthens relationships rather than damaging them. If you're looking for practical, doable ways to become a more confident negotiator and influencer, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "You can get more by caring about what the other person needs and building a strong relational foundation." "People are not born amazing negotiators. They develop that skill over time, just like people are not born confident." "You have to practice that small step out in the real world where the stakes are low and build that skill day after day, month after month." "You and I have probably already negotiated half a dozen times today." "When someone gives us something, we want to return the favor." "New studies now show that 90 to 95% of decision-making comes from unconscious emotional processing." "So many of us quit before we even start." "But if we do have a goal and we do prepare for the conversation, our likelihood of success is double." "A good negotiation doesn't always mean getting 'yes' at the end of it." "I always tell my students, people can almost always help you. It depends on if they want to or not."

For weeks, I've been saying the same thing. You cannot negotiate with the Iranian regime. They lie. They cheat. They stall. And every day they're given is another day to regroup. Now, it appears President Trump has reached that same conclusion. Today, we break down why the fantasy of negotiating with a regime built on deception was never realistic. The clerics running Iran don't want peace. They want time. Time to rebuild. Time to rearm. Time to threaten America and Israel once again. I believe it's time to finish the job. The Iranian people have suffered under this brutal regime for decades. Many of them want freedom more than anything. The world will be better without these radical rulers in power. Yes, there could be short term pain. Oil prices could spike. The stock market could wobble. But markets recover. Freedom lasts. History rewards those willing to finish what they start instead of leaving evil standing. Then, Democrats prove once again that principles mean nothing when power is on the line. Their latest effort to force Graham Platner out of Maine's Senate race has nothing to do with protecting women. If it did, they'd apply the same standard to their own candidates. This is about one thing: winning at any cost. We'll expose why this looks like just another chapter in the Democrats' long history of trying to manipulate elections instead of trusting voters.

Brian Will has owned 10 companies across five industries, made three exits worth over $500 million, and written four books — including two Wall Street Journal bestsellers. None of it was handed to him and the odds were very much against him. In this conversation with Dwayne Kerrigan, Brian unpacks the frameworks behind his success: the personal filter, the success ladder, and the $80 million decision he almost said no to. In this episode: The "I'm in" moment: Brian's business partner Steve asked him to borrow $66,000 more after nine months of zero revenue and $500,000 in losses — Brian's accountant, CMO, and COO all quit before he finally said yes, and the company sold for $80 million just 18 months later Why "failure leads to success" is a myth Brian calls out directly — it's learning from failure that leads to success, and most people skip that step entirely The success ladder framework: Brian started at step zero with no education, no backing, and no mentors — and why the only two ways to climb are to learn every painful lesson yourself or find someone who's already done it The personal filter concept: everything you've ever heard, read, and experienced creates a subconscious filter that accepts or rejects new information — and why people who seem to have the Midas touch aren't lucky, their brain just knows how to recognize success How Brian's abusive childhood created what he calls the "anger box" — and how that same fuel, once controlled, became his most powerful sales and leadership tool Why three years of counseling after his divorce was the moment he realized the only person he was still trying to prove anything to was himself Episode Highlights: 00:00 - Keep Moving Forward 00:15 - Podcast Intro 00:47 - Meet Brian Will 02:53 - Dumb Kids Hope Story 04:40 - Military Discipline Lessons 08:30 - Abuse, Anger, and Trauma 12:28 - Anger Box Control 13:35 - Learning From Failure 17:04 - Mentorship Strategy 17:59 - Steve and the Big Bet 19:40 - All In Decision 20:38 - Breakthrough and Exit 22:36 - Ego Surrender and Trust 26:46 - Vulnerability and Divorce 32:20 - Drowning Mind in Books 34:30 - Who Steve Was 35:27 - Equity Swap Origin Story 39:23 - Email Marketing Gold Rush 41:10 - Success Filter Framework 46:05 - Wrap Up and Next Episode Resources mentioned: I Give the Dumb Kids Hope, Dropout Multimillionaire, No: The Psychology of Sales and Negotiations, and The Invisible Multimillionaire — Brian Will's books How to Win Friends and Influence People — Dale Carnegie book Master Key to Riches — Napoleon Hill book The E-Myth Revisited — Michael Gerber book Blink — Malcolm Gladwell book Rich Dad Poor Dad — Robert Kiyosaki book Living Forever AI — Brian Will's current company: https://livingforeverai.com/ Quotes: “ Failure does not lead to success, ever, never, ever, ever. Learning from failure leads to success, and that's the thing that a lot of people don't do, especially in business.” - Brian Will “ In 60 days, we hit our first offer. We did $6 million, then 20, then 30, and then sold the company for $80 million 18 months later.” - Brian Will “ The only person that still thinks, or in my case, still thought that I was that kid laying in the yard crying after I got beat up by my stepdad was me. I was the guy that I did, I had to prove something to.” - Brian Will “ Failure will be inevitable at some point, and learning is optional." - Dwayne Kerrigan “ It's your personal filter that will determine whether you succeed or fail in life.” - Brian Will “ Most of the time, they quit right before they're about to make a breakthrough. That's just a fact.” - Brian Will About Brian Will: Brian Will is a serial entrepreneur, two-time Wall Street Journal bestselling author, and business consultant who has founded or co-founded ten companies across four industries, with combined valuations exceeding half a billion dollars. He is a two-time TEDx speaker and the author of four books including Dropout Multimillionaire and No: The Psychology of Sales and Negotiations.

Episode 3067: Seth Sinclair explores how your natural approach to conflict shapes the way you negotiate and why becoming aware of those tendencies can lead to better outcomes. By learning when to shift between competing and accommodating styles, you can avoid unnecessary stalemates, protect important relationships, and negotiate with greater confidence and intention. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://michaelmehlberg.com/blog/2016/10/24/how-to-win-more-negotiations-by-changing-your-conflict-style Quotes to ponder: "A negotiation is a type of conflict, a situation where your concerns and interests are not aligning with those of another person, and you are actively seeking a solution." "Understanding your tendencies in responding to conflict, and how you may need to adjust them, will give you an advantage as you work through a negotiation." "There is nothing inherently right or wrong about either of these modes. They both have benefits and costs depending on the situation."

Discover why the most successful negotiations aren't just about making the right ask—they're about creating the right experience. In this episode of The Art of Feminine Negotiation, Cindy Watson sits down with marketing and digital strategy expert Shamir Duverseau to explore "Negotiation Isn't The Ask, It's The Experience." Drawing on more than 15 years of leadership in marketing, product management, user experience, digital strategy, and his role as Senior Director of Digital Strategy and Services for Marriott International's Vacation Club Division, Shamir shares how understanding human behavior, trust, and customer experience can transform the way we negotiate. Whether you're leading a team, growing a business, or building stronger relationships, this conversation will help you create negotiation experiences that inspire lasting influence and better outcomes. In this episode, you will discover: How do we define negotiation? And what point does the so-called negotiation actually begins? What does clarity actually mean in a negotiation context? How to make someone safe in a conversation? What we can negotiate more effectively without that constant friction or emotional depletion? How can you renegotiate how you show up and get this clarity? What would be the starting zone for you? What is one negotiation that people need to start having with themselves? And many more!

Three bestselling authors—Nir Eyal, Charles Duhigg, and Chris Voss—join Travis for a powerhouse compilation episode focused on the psychology behind success. From building beliefs that fuel action to mastering meaningful conversations and negotiating with confidence, these world-class experts share practical frameworks that can improve your business, relationships, and decision-making. On this episode we talk about: Why belief—not knowledge—is often the missing ingredient between knowing what to do and actually doing it The hidden reason positive thinking and manifestation can sometimes work against you How great communicators create trust by matching the type of conversation they're having Chris Voss's negotiation tools, including mirroring, labeling, tactical empathy, and strategic silence Practical communication techniques that improve leadership, sales, and everyday relationships Top 3 Takeaways Success isn't just about having the right information—it requires believing both that you can do the work and that the work will produce the desired outcome. The best communicators don't rush to persuade. They first seek to understand by asking thoughtful questions, showing empathy, and matching the emotional context of the conversation. Great negotiators create trust by making people feel heard. Skills like mirroring, labeling emotions, and embracing silence often reveal more information than talking ever could. Notable Quotes "Motivation is not a straight line. Motivation is a triangle." "Successful communication requires having the same kind of conversation at the same moment." "Empathy is demonstrating comprehension—not agreement."

While Joe continues as the namesake of the motorsports powerhouse that is Joe Gibbs Racing, his daughter-in-law, Heather Gibbs, has stepped into a leadership role to help forge the future of the team. From her early days as a baker to her success as a realtor, and now her role as a Co-Owner of Joe Gibbs Racing, Heather has a wealth of experience and perspective in the business world across real estate, racing, and even baking cakes! In this episode of Business of Motorsports with Kelley Earnhardt, Gibbs addresses the emotions of seeing her son Ty get his first Cup victory, the frustrations of the charter negotiations, the sadness of losing her husband Coy, and how the race team could look when Joe passes on the torch.

Preview for Later Today: Peter Berkowitz. Peter Berkowitz critiques the Trump administration's failed negotiations with Iran following a six-week military campaign. He argues that the indefinite extension of a ceasefire, despite Iran's rejection of nuclear and missile program constraints, weakened the U.S. position. The discussion focuses on the mishandling of diplomatic documents.1521
Vice President JD Vance has been given a job no one really wants: ending the incredibly unpopular Iran war. He's been tasked with leading negotiations with Iranian counterparts to find a lasting solution that he thinks could QUOTE “transform the Middle East.” But there are many, many obstacles in his way. And as the US and Iran attempt to hammer out not just an end to the war, but a new nuclear deal, President Trump seems markedly uninterested in the whole thing. So for more on the mess that is trying to end the Iran war, we spoke with Tommy Vietor. He's the co-host of Crooked Media's Pod Save the World.And in headlines, Moscow's Defense Ministry says Ukraine launched a major Thursday night attack, ex-national security adviser John Bolton pleads guilty to a single count of illegally retaining national defense information, and New York City approves a rent freeze on one- and two-year leases for people living in about 1 million rent-stabilized apartments.Show Notes: Check out Pod Save The World – www.youtube.com/@podsavetheworld Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
