Asking for and getting a raise can make a significant difference in your financial plan for years to come. In this episode, Tim Ulbrich walks through a five-step playbook with practical tips and strategies to help you confidently ask for and get the raise you deserve. Episode Summary Asking for and getting a raise can make a massive difference in your financial plan, not just today, but for years and even decades to come. For many pharmacists, the thought of walking into their boss's office and asking for more money can feel as unpleasant as getting a cavity filled. It's uncomfortable, awkward, and full of “what ifs”: What if they say no? What if I ruin the relationship? What if they think I'm being greedy? The truth is, most people never get a big raise for one simple reason: they never ask. And that “ask” isn't just about adding dollars to your paycheck. It's about building confidence and advocating for the value you bring to your role. In this episode, YFP Co-Founder & CEO, Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, breaks down a five-step playbook with practical examples, real-world negotiation tips, and a few favorite strategies from Chris Voss's Never Split the Difference. Whether you're aiming for your first raise or looking to boost your income long term, this episode gives you the tools to confidently ask for and actually get the raise you deserve.

I am joined by ⁠Sean Lewis⁠, Director of Partnerships at Vicasso and the Serviceblazer User Group Leader for AMER.   We talk about his journey from customer support to sales to partnerships and everything in between. When he was selling, a Salesforce AE sent them a referral to a F100 company that really opened his eyes to the value of the partnership. Now Vicasso has two FTEs focused on partnerships to drive further top of the funnel growth. The partner team at Vicasso focuses on Salesforce AEs, SEs and leaders but has started to explore SI partnerships as well since Vicasso no longer provides SI work as part of their business as a pure ISV. Sean shares an incredibly valuable learning around focus when it comes to coselling with Salesforce.  One time they found that one Service Cloud RVP has 5x the number of existing accounts and were only in 5% of their total accounts. Hyperfocus means Sean and his team knows where they will provide value to them.If your app helps add value to Service Cloud users, the Serviceblazer community events might be worth your time to check out.

On this episode, I welcome Mr. Mike Viane, a certified business and executive coach, to the Customers First Boardroom. With an impressive 30-year career in the movie industry, including roles at major studios like Warner Bros, Mike brings invaluable insights into the intersection of business acumen and storytelling. Currently, he's the owner of Focal Point Coaching, where he helps a range of clients—from executives to entrepreneurs—navigate growth and organizational reinvention. Mike has learned to work with various personality types in high-pressure environments and how to facilitate better communication and understanding among teams. He emphasizes the importance of authenticity and vulnerability in leadership, especially when striving for a positive work culture and improved guest experiences. One of the most striking concepts we discuss is tactical empathy, as popularized by Chris Voss in his book "Never Split the Difference." Mike explains how replacing judgment with curiosity in business interactions can lead to deeper understanding and better resolutions. He illustrates this approach with a real-life example involving movie theatre managers successfully de-escalating a tense situation with an unhappy guest by applying empathetic communication strategies. We dive into actionable insights as well, particularly the idea of Difference-Making Actions (DMAs). Mike passionately advocates for intentionality in our daily routines, urging listeners to set specific, measurable actions that align with their goals rather than simply getting caught up in reactive tasks. He discusses the importance of making these DMAs a priority at the start of each day, highlighting that small, intentional actions can cumulatively lead to significant personal and professional growth over time. Wrapping up our conversation, we touch on the concept of the "marathon mindset"—a theme that Mike encountered at a recent coaching conference. He outlines the four P's: purpose, preparation, pace, and perseverance, emphasizing how breaking down overwhelming goals into manageable steps can foster sustained progress and mitigate feelings of uncertainty. As we close, Mike leaves us with his core message about the power of focusing on our DMAs to set ourselves up for success. He encourages listeners to take actionable steps daily that contribute to a positive workplace culture and customer experience.   Mike's Contact Information: Website: https://michaelviane.focalpointcoaching.com LinkedIn: @michael-viane-105700195/   Tacey's Contact Information: Website: taceyatkinson.com All Socials: @TaceyAtkinson   Thank you for tuning in, and I look forward to having more valuable conversations together in the future.

Rebuilding Us: Turning Conflict into Connection Podcast Summary: In this episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis dive deep into the essential relationship cycle of rupture, repair, responsibility, and rebuilding. Drawing from their personal experiences and clinical work, they explore how every relationship inevitably encounters conflict—not because something is wrong, but because two different people are sharing life together. Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn emphasize that conflict is often not about the surface issue (like toothpaste or hair gel), but rather unmet expectations, unspoken needs, and internal narratives we build over time. Using real-life stories and examples, they explore how couples can move beyond blame and defensiveness by embracing self-awareness, honest communication, and compassion—for themselves and each other. The episode also introduces the powerful concept of the “we problem,” encouraging couples to see relational issues as shared challenges rather than individual failures. Through intentional communication, ownership of feelings, and regular expressions of gratitude, couples can strengthen their bond and build a relationship that thrives—even after betrayal or rupture. Whether you're newly married or have been together for decades, this episode is filled with practical wisdom and hopefor anyone who wants deeper, healthier, more resilient intimacy. Key Concepts Covered: Rupture is inevitable, but repair is a learned skill. What we fight about is often not the real issue—it's unmet expectations or a need to feel heard and valued. True intimacy requires vulnerability, humility, and responsibility. “I” statements are powerful tools for conflict resolution. Shifting from a “you vs. me” to a “we” mindset transforms how couples face challenges. Emotional honesty means recognizing your own triggers before projecting onto your partner. Gratitude and daily appreciation can reignite positive connection. Healing after betrayal demands both partners do their inner work while also working on the relationship.

Anamaria Ungureanu: The Tech Lead Who Nearly Destroyed the Team Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Anamaria describes a seven-member software team that initially seemed engaged but began self-destructing when a senior tech lead refused to embrace transparency and knowledge sharing principles.  The situation escalated when this key team member's four-day absence completely blocked the team's ability to deliver, creating a dangerous single point of failure. Through careful retrospective facilitation and strategic motivation techniques, including offering the specialist new learning opportunities while gradually transferring their legacy knowledge to teammates, Anamaria helped the team overcome knowledge silos and establish sustainable collaboration patterns. Featured Book of the Week: Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss Anamaria recommends “Never Split the Difference” by Chris Voss, a negotiation masterpiece because it taught her essential communication strategies for establishing trust and navigating tense situations. She emphasizes that negotiation is a critical Scrum Master skill, and Voss's techniques help build rapport with stakeholders while managing difficult conversations that arise during team transformations and organizational change initiatives. Self-reflection Question: What knowledge silos exist in your teams, and how might you motivate specialists to share their expertise while providing them with new growth opportunities?

Show notes (TRUMP The Art of The Deal detailed book summary) / Free Full Audiobook / PDF & Infographic / IN THIS EPISODE: Trump's The Art of the Deal offers a strategic blueprint for business success by combining bold thinking, calculated risk management, and a game-like approach to professional challenges. TOPICS: negotiation, entrepreneurship, real estate, Risk management, Marketing, business, Trump, deal-making KEY FIGURES: Apple, Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Amazon, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power, Think and Grow Rich, Chris Voss, The Art of the Deal, Robert Kiyosaki, Never Split the Difference, Roger Fisher, Getting to Yes, Napoleon Hill, Queens, Brooklyn, Atlantic City, Fred Trump, Manhattan, Tony Schwartz, Trump Tower, Grand Central Station, Baron Hilton, Fifth Avenue, Wharton School, Harvard, Grand Hyatt Hotel SUMMARY: Donald Trump's book 'The Art of the Deal' offers 11 strategic principles for successful business negotiations and deal-making. The book, written when Trump was 41, draws from his experiences transforming Manhattan's real estate landscape through projects like Trump Tower and the Grand Hyatt Hotel renovation. Trump emphasizes thinking big, managing risk, and understanding human psychology as key elements of successful deal-making. The Art of The Deal's core strategies include maintaining flexibility in negotiations, gathering direct market intelligence, strategically using media attention, and protecting downside risks while preserving upside potential. Trump advocates for an approach that involves working on multiple deals simultaneously, understanding what motivates people, and never appearing desperate during negotiations. He also stresses the importance of delivering genuine value and maintaining long-term relationships with partners and clients. Beyond practical business advice, Trump presents a philosophical approach to deal-making that views business as an engaging game rather than merely a means of making money in The Art of The Deal. He encourages entrepreneurs to enjoy the process of solving complex problems, maintaining creative energy, and focusing on challenges that others cannot solve. The book ultimately suggests that successful dealmakers combine ambitious thinking with careful risk management, psychological insight, and a commitment to consistently delivering value. KEY QUOTES: • "If you're going to think anyway, you might as well think big." - Donald Trump • "Money was never [my] big motivation except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game." - Donald Trump • "Protect the downside and the upside will take care of itself." - Donald Trump • "Be good to people who are good to you, but fight back hard when people treat you badly or unfairly." - Donald Trump • "You can create excitement and use promotion effectively, but if you don't deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on." - Donald Trump KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Think big and aim for ambitious goals: Setting larger objectives requires similar effort to small goals but can yield significantly better results and attract more attention • Protect against downside risks while maintaining unlimited upside potential: Smart deal-making involves structuring arrangements that limit potential losses while preserving opportunities for significant gains • Create strategic leverage by maintaining multiple options and avoiding appearing desperate in negotiations: Having alternative opportunities gives you more negotiating power and psychological advantage • Gather market intelligence through direct human interactions rather than relying solely on traditional market research: Personal conversations can reveal nuanced insights about customer preferences and market dynamics • Deliver genuine value consistently: Long-term success depends on actually fulfilling promises and providing real quality, not just creating marketing hype...

In yet another insightful episode of the Open Your Eyes podcast, McKay traces the transformative power of knowledge, from the darkness of the 14th century to the modern bookshelf. By exploring key lessons from history and foundational books, he demonstrates how acquiring knowledge remains the ultimate tool for personal growth, effective leadership, and a more fulfilling life.Drawing a stark contrast between a pre-literate world of disease and ignorance and the revolutions that followed, our host credits Johannes Gutenberg's printing press with changing the world. He then distills potent, actionable wisdom from a number of influential books, including practical tactics on negotiation from Never Split the Difference, persuasion from Influence, and marketing from Contagious. The episode also highlights the power of perseverance over talent as detailed in Grit and the necessity of emotional focus in leadership from Daniel Goleman's work, ultimately encouraging listeners to see reading not as a pastime, but as a direct path to empowerment.Main Themes:Knowledge is the ultimate form of power.The spread of information, via the printing press, ended an era of ignorance and sparked global progress.Reading is a direct path to personal and professional growth.Effective negotiation is a process of discovery, not a battle.Understanding human psychology (reciprocity, social proof, providing reasons) is key to influence.Grit and perseverance are often more important than innate talent.Emotional intelligence allows leaders to focus on what truly matters.Marketing should be a generous act of helping others.Top 10 Quotes:"Knowledge has the power to change people, cultures, homes, families, and businesses.""Today a reader, tomorrow a leader.""Negotiation is not an act of battle; it's a process of discovery.""People simply like to have reasons for what they do.""Marketing is the generous act of helping others, not selling others.""When we care, we share.""Grit mattered more than intelligence, leadership, or physical fitness.""Leaders with high emotional intelligence... can suspend emotions or reactions on things that don't matter most.""What kept the population in such poor conditions was the lack of knowledge.""At the foundation of our behavior and beliefs really is the way we see the world and ourselves in it."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

Christian Osgood is a real estate investor, educator, and host of the Multifamily Strategy podcast and YouTube channel. After starting his career in sales and acquiring a few rentals using the Dave Ramsey method, he made a strategic leap into multifamily through creative financing. Today, Christian owns over 300 units, operates a property management company, and helps others achieve financial independence through value-driven, relationship-based investing.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Apartment Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways: Christian scaled from owning duplexes to 300+ units in under five years by mastering creative finance. He focuses on building authentic relationships with property owners rather than cold prospecting or marketing. His strategy centers on two questions: “How do I buy it?” and “How do I never lose it?” Raising capital becomes simple when you bring a strong deal, a smart structure, and clear alignment with investor interests. JV deals and seller financing often offer more flexibility and alignment than traditional syndications.     Topics: From Dave Ramsey to Real Estate Freedom Started with a goal to retire his wife, transitioned from two duplexes to over 300 units. Emphasized holding properties long-term by ensuring they cash flow from day one. Avoids dependence on future sales for profitability. How a 38-Unit Seller-Financed Deal Changed Everything Acquired a distressed property listed for 12 years by offering a six-month no-payment period. Secured seller financing at 4% with a $300K down payment, raised from new connections. Repaired collections and operations, appraised at $4.1M within 11 months. Used refinance to cash out investors and retain full ownership. Deal, Debt, Equity: A Simple Capital-Raising Framework Christian emphasizes a “deal-first” approach: find the opportunity, secure the financing, then raise the remaining equity. Capital is easier to raise when you're solving problems for both the seller and investor. Transparent communication and downside protection build trust and drive investment. Joint Ventures vs. Syndication Joint ventures allow for more creative structures, faster execution, and clear alignment of roles. Syndication is not wrong—just often unnecessary for small to midsize deals with fewer partners. The Power of Relationships in Real Estate Christian meets with owners weekly for coffee instead of cold calling. His best deals and investor connections come from these low-pressure conversations. Many owners eventually offer to finance their entire portfolios after seeing his track record and integrity. Lessons from a $4.5M “Shiny Object” Mistake Bought a resort early in his journey that didn't align with his strengths or goals. Learned the importance of sticking to your lane and clarifying your business identity.

In Chris Voss' book "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended on It", one major point made is that a high-stakes conversation is never just about the words being said. Much more, it's about hearing the emotional state of the other person and really listening to what they have to say and what they need from you. How does this compare to your model for debriefing after a critical event? Do we sometimes have to negotiate that there is even learning to be had from a bad experience?

Have you ever read a book that changed the way you see the world? Today’s power podcast episode is a quick dive into five books that have had a significant impact on me. Now, let me be clear, these aren’t my absolute top five books of all time because, honestly, that would be impossible to choose. Instead, these are five books that, for different reasons, have truly shaped me as an entrepreneur, a woman, a mother, and a wife. Each of these books has influenced my mindset, my approach to business, and even my daily life. Some have given me the tools to grow professionally, while others have provided personal insights that have been game-changers. My hope in sharing them with you today is that maybe one of these will resonate with you, inspire you, or even change your life in ways you never expected. So, as you listen, think about your own journey. Is there a book that has completely shifted your perspective? If not, maybe one of these five will be the one that sparks something new in you.

Send us a textYou know the old saying, Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one. And of course, if you have an opinion you gotta share that with as many people as possible, it's the law.Now that might sound somewhat hypocritically coming from the host of a podcast that is based solely upon sharing our opinions, but you know what, I'm gonna own that shit.We love to talk about our favorite hobby and of course that means sharing on thoughts, ideas, and opinions. We try to make sure they come from our own experiences and we typically like to throw out the caveat that these things work for us, but might not work for you. We like to think that our ideas and advice are pretty good, but we recognize that we can be a little bias.Over the years we have gotten some terrible advice. My favorite bad advice came from my drivers ed instructor. He was a bit of a comedian so I am pretty sure he didn't mean it, but I distinctly remember him saying that driving a car was like dodgeball. Make sure you hit them before they hit you.And, at the end of the day, that advice is just as bad as some of these other gems we have gotten from those well-meaning, or not so well-meaning friends and self-proclaimed gurus of roleplaying.In this episode Mike, Christina, and I are going to talk about that bad GM Advice. We are calling this episode Never Split the Party and Other Terrible GM Advice.I lead with Never Split the Party because that was the one that I was told over and over again, but as soon as I started running my own games, I realized that splitting the party could not only be good, but resulted in some of my most memorable gaming experiences. So, my entire roleplaying style revolves around defying this one simple piece of what I consider bad advice.Christina, Do you have an example of bad advice that really defines your roleplaying style?

This episode is about SLPs and conflict management. It opens with a discussion of Nonviolent Communication, an approach that focuses on using empathy during challenging interactions. There are four main components in Nonviolent Communication: observation, feelings, needs and requests. A core understanding within Nonviolent Communication is that everything we do is in service of our needs. This idea can help us understand why others do what they do—and why we do what we do! Nonviolent Communication also uses animal metaphors to describe different communication styles. Jackal communication is aggressive and judgmental, and operates with a limited perspective. Giraffe communication comes from the heart, and it uses a more expansive perspective. After exploring Nonviolent Communication, I talk about strategies from Harvard's Program on Negotiation. These strategies focus on finding common ground during a conflict. I close the episode with a reminder that listening can be one of our most powerful actions in a conflict. In his book Never Split the Difference, well-known hostage negotiator Chris Voss emphasizes that the listener is the participant who controls a conversation.
