Do you often think of a luxurious vacation or maybe time just hanging out at the park or beach? Do you dream of visiting friends on the other side of the country or even the other side of the world? If any of your sentences begin with the words “Someday I'm going to……” then this interview is for you.  Listen in as Lisa talks with author and communication expert Sam Horn about how to stop waiting and start initiating the life you want.  It's waiting there for you, behind the “someday.” Sam is the “Intrigue Expert,” a world-renowned author, speaker, communications strategist, and executive coach who has trained the world's top entrepreneurs and executives how to communicate more clearly, compellingly, and convincingly.  After a health scare a few years ago, she decided she needed to take back her life and her time. She was so busy that she kept putting things off, assuming that she would always have time to enjoy life later.  She decided to address this right away and as an entrepreneur, she realized she could work from anywhere, so she decided to travel and work remotely. Her dream was to write and be by the water, so she did! She also talks about blending your passion with the way you make money. It's possible. She also suggests adding a lot more fun in your life, too! Her books include  “Take the Bully by the Horns,” “Tongue Fu!®,” “ConZentrate,” “What's Holding You Back?” and “Got Your Attention?”  Info: www.samhorn.com.

Puterea cuvântului, de pe mica scenă de spoken-word până la marea scena a muzicii, la JAZZx Festival

Jordan Rakei, GoGoPenguin, Roberto Fonseca, MonoNeon sau Matteo Mancuso au fost capetele de afiș pentru ediția 2024, JAZZx Festival de la Timișoara, eveniment ajuns la a 12 ediție. Un eveniment care și-a propus să aducă împreună comunitățile muzicale din vestul țării, invitând pe scenă artiști care inovează, oameni care experimentează, pentru lărgirea perspectivei artistice. Până la Piață Libertății, marea scena a JAZZx, evenimentele de peste zi m-au purtat pe străzile orașului descoperind la Kunsthalle Bega o expoziție de Andrei Arion sau la Casa Isho, unde Marius Bercea a prezentat 'This Side of Paradise'. Pomenesc aici și de 'Future Days', expoziția Facultății de Arhitectura și Urbanism din Timișoara, toate incluse în programul JAZZx de anul acesta.În inima comunității Faber, la Ambasada, prin sesiuni de Masterclass, muzicienii străini invitați la Timișoara și-au împărtășit din experiența lor tuturor celor interesați. Am văzut ușurința cu care omul care a cântat într-o vreme cu Buena Vista Social Club, Roberto Fonseca, a trecut prin compoziții de Gillespie utilizând ritmurile sud-americane, argumentând ușurința cu care face asta printr-o replică scurtă, 'din fericire, m-am născut în Cuba!'.Roberto Fonseca este unul dintre marii ambasadori ai muzicii cubaneze, cu un amestec elegant de vechi și nou. Deși principala sa pasiune rămâne jazz-ul, stilul pianistului este la fel de divers ca populația din Havana: blues, funk, hip-hop, afro-jazz. O multitudine de influențe se revarsă de la clapele sale. Firesc, s-a dansat printre scaunele din Piața Libertății când Fonseca a cântat la scena mare, iar daca asta nu a fost suficient, cine a dorit mai mult, s-a putut retrage la Comenduirea Garnizoanei care a găzduit Jam Session-urile nocturne cu artiștii invitați la JAZZx.Printre cei care au făcut noapte albă improvizând, au fost și artiștii invitați la scena matinală de Spoken-Word, sub brandul deja cunoscut de Strada Fără Nume. O micuță scena ce nu s-a lăsat închisă nici măcar în vremuri de pandemie. ''Tocmai am susținut un show împreună, un show de spoken-word, poezie și muzica, totul improvizat. Nu e nimic planificat, deci nu știm ce urmează să se întâmple, până când nu se întâmplă, și asta face ca totul să fie viu și distractiv, interactiv cu audiența. Este a patra sau a cincea oară când participam la acest festival, de asemenea, am fost invitat să facilitez un curs pentru poezie și muzică aici, pentru a împărtăși din experiența și priceperea noastră în Marea Britanie, lucrând aici cu tineri poeți români, din Moldova de asemenea, anul acesta avem participanți și din Franța și Marea Britanie. Este vorba despre a ajuta și împărtăși din experiența artistică acumulată, cum facem asta, care este nivelul aici în România, similaritățile, care sunt diferențele. Suntem toți artiști și cu cât împărtășim din experiență, cu atât putem învață mai multe împreună.'' spune Chris Redmond.Chris Redmond este un scriitor și interpret care lucrează cu cuvinte vorbite, în muzică și teatru. Poezia sa a fost prezentată la BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 4, XFM și SKY Arts. Artist consacrat pe scena poeziei spectacolului din Marea Britanie, cântă în locații, de la cafenele și pub-uri până la Southbank Centre din Londra, Soho Theatre și cele mai mari festivaluri din Marea Britanie – Glastonbury, Latitude și The Big Chill. Chris este fondatorul și gazda „Tongue Fu”, responsabil de evenimentele Spoken-Word la JAZZx Timișoara.Strada Fără Nume este un proiect desfășurat în cadrul Festivalului JAZZx, proiect care susține cercetarea artistică și dezvoltarea abilităților artiștilor prin activități de coproducție, cooperare, interdisciplinaritate și schimb de experiență în domeniul muzical și literar, precum și de mediere și incluziune culturală. Ateliere “Spoken Word”: dezvoltarea abilităților de lectură publică ale tinerilor poeți români prin organizarea de ateliere educaționale interdisciplinare, spectacole și jam sessions cu poeți români, poeți și mentori din Europa. În cadrul atelierelor educaționale, poeți tineri din diferite orașe din România au fost selectați prin  apel deschis la nivel național, să petreacă o săptămână în Timișoara, unde împreună au putut crea și dezvolta spectacole de tipul „spoken word” în regim de co-producție. La numai 27 de ani, Matteo Mancuso este un chitarist ce surprinde prin tehnica sa de interpretare, capabil să implementeze din sunete si metode de chitară clasică pe un instrument electric. De altfel, Matteo face ceea ce a văzut acasă. Tatăl sau Vincenzo Mancuso l-a crescut pe muzică de chitară clasică."Pentru mine, jazz-ul și rock-ul au multe elemente în comun, și mereu mi-a plăcut paleta de culori, armoniile sofisticate a jazz-ului, dar în același timp, cântând la chitara electrică, îmi place sunetul distors și puterea rock-ului. Așa că am vrut să amestec cele doua genuri, și sigur este ceva ce se numește jazz fusion, lucru pe care mulți muzicieni îl cântă cu mult înaintea mea, dar asta este genul muzical care îmi place, caut să amestec din ceea ce am auzit în trecut. Familia m-a ajutat mult pentru a ajunge unde sunt astăzi, și asta în mare parte pentru că am cântat mult împreună, și nu a fost deloc forțat, nu a venit cu lecții obligatorii, mereu a fost distractiv pentru mine, și mereu am spus că tatăl meu a fost foarte bun în a mă face să râd, să mă distrez cu instrumentul, și nu m-a forțat să învăț din elementele muzicii, toate chestiile plictisitoare, cele de studiu, au venit mai tărziu, aici cred că este secretul, asta a funcționat, cel puțin în cazul meu." spune Matteo Mancuso.În 2023 a lansat albumul “The Journey”, care a atras atenția la esența diverselor sale influențe muzicale. “Matteo este evoluția chitarei fusion, tehnica să uluitoare este o încântare de urmărit. El este dovada că spiritul evolutiv al chitariștilor este ferm intact” spune Steve Vai. Matteo este unul din artiștii care își recunoaște influențele, și mai mult, dă înapoi din ceea ce a descoperit prin muzică, Matteo fiind printre artiștii care au susținut ore de masterclass la Timișoara.JAZZx este un proiect visat și produs de Centrul Cultural PLAI pentru comunități diverse, într-un parteneriat public-privat și efort comun de a accesibiliza forme artistice de calitate care ne aduc împreună.Început în 2006 cu scopul de a organiza festivalul PLAI - festival de worldmusic, comunități și diversitate în toate formele ei, Centrul Cultural PLAI a luat de-a lungul timpului diferite forme și formate, toate cu scopul de a oferi soluții comunitare și de a genera sinergii și impact de durată. Pe lângă producția de evenimente comunitare și croite pentru parteneri, PLAI a dezvoltat și AMBASADA, proaspăt aniversând 9 ani de existență. Ea a devenit foarte repede locul de întâlnire, conectare și dezvoltare a comunităților de 'doers' din țară - primul centru cultural independent din România parte din Trans Europe Halles - rețea europeană de astfel de spații. JAZZx este despre puterea individului care face ca și în 2024 Timișoara să continue să fie o capitală culturală vibrantă și armonică în care jazz-ul, prin diferitele sale influențe să promoveze libertățile și toleranța. Este despre puterea creației prin artă, muzică, până la puterea cuvântului, Strada Fără Nume este unul din proiectele educaționale care s-a dezvoltat organic din scena de SpokenWord @JAZZx, în același spirit în care scenele festivalului susțin talent local și la început de drum, recunoscând valoarea cuvântului scris și magia colaborărilor din arte, acolo unde poezia și improvizația muzicală crează povești ce mișcă suflete."Poezia poate capta dispoziția a ceva și îl poate condensa și distila într-o cu totul altă formă, și când îl comunicam printr-un performance are efect imediat. Poeții scriu repede pentru că nu facem o nuvelă, așa că putem fi destul de prezenți, gata să răspundem, asta poate fi parte dintr-un show de improvizație. Deci este o oportunitate pentru dialog și reflexie creativă legat de tot ce se întâmplă în lume, asta ne ajută să navigăm prin prezent." mai spune Chris Redmond.

Leveraging AI to unlock new levels of creativity and communication innovationJoin Matt Abrahams with creativity and innovation experts Jeremy Utley and Kian Gohar to explore the transformative potential of AI in the realms of creativity and problem-solving. If you treat artificial intelligence like an oracle, you'll likely be disappointed. But if you treat it like a teammate, Utley and Gohar say you'll be surprised just how helpful a collaborator it can be.Utley, an adjunct professor at the Stanford d.school, and Gohar, a bestselling author, keynote speaker, and futurist, have researched how teams can integrate AI into existing workflows to generate more creative ideas and streamline problem-solving. As they've found, large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT can be powerful tools for innovation.

Sam and I first met several years ago at a conference where we were both sipping coffee at the pool and struck up an inspiring conversation. As is usually the case, we hit it off right away!   With decades of experience and numerous bestselling books under her belt, including "Talking on Eggshells" and "Tongue Fu!", Sam is an in-demand keynote speaker and pitch coach.   Her wisdom and insights on communication are truly unparalleled in the field.   In our in-depth discussion, Sam opened up about how her childhood shaped her conflict-avoidant mindset:   "I grew up in the Cold War, and my dad was emotionally distant, and my mom was emotionally wounded. And they did not fight. However, they also didn't talk to each other."   Later in her life, a toxic relationship taught Sam how being overly compassionate can backfire:   "My strengths, taken to an extreme, become my Achilles' heel. Because we're supposed to be compassionate, we're supposed to be kind and it's how we roll. And yet if we continue to be kind to people who are toxic or who are cruel to us, rewarded behavior gets repeated."   After these experiences, Sam learned to become an "informed innocent" - aware of darkness but not defined by it.   She now helps others communicate with integrity.

I've ended up doing what I love all my life because of that decision.” “‘Could you please help me understand?' These words can be transformative in a situation of uncomfortableness, conflict, or confrontation. “The A Train: Agree. Apologize. Act. This framework will expedite complaints, whereas explanations only aggravate them.” “We can't motivate people to do better by making them feel bad. When someone makes a mistake, we should reinforce the desired behavior instead of shaming them for what they shouldn't be doing.” “We may not like how a person is behaving, but when we work to understand their perspective, it gives us the compassion and incentive to be empathetic instead of impatient.” “Choose to model what it looks like to be a leader, mentor and champion of other women.”  Connect with Sam:⭐Connect on Instagram: @samhornintrigue⭐Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samhorn/⭐Connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/samhornintrigue⭐Connect on Twitter: https://twitter.com/SamHornIntrigue⭐Check out Sam's latest release:  Talking on Eggshells: Soft Skills for Hard Conversations Connect with Allison:⭐ Connect on Instagram @allisonwalsh⭐ JOIN OUR FREE COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/shebelievedshecouldcommunity⭐ Check out book recommendations from the show here⭐ Download your free 90 day planner here

In this episode of the Connected Leadership Podcast, Andy Lopata welcomes Sam Horn, CEO of the Intrigue Agency and the Tongue Fu! Training Institute. Sam's newly released book, "Talking on Eggshells," is the focus of their conversation, delving into conflict management and its impact on our professional lives. Sam emphasises that conflict is a natural aspect of life and highlights the need to address it rather than ignore it. Drawing inspiration from Elvis Presley, Sam encourages individuals not to let things go wrong but to address conflict head-on. She emphasises the importance of diverse perspectives within teams and explains how conflict arises from disagreements on the best course of action. Drawing a parallel to team sports, she compares the need for different positions and skills required in business environments. Conflict arises when individuals disagree on the best course of action or decision to make. Sam shares an example of how conflict can serve a constructive purpose by focusing on how individuals can cooperate instead of opposing one another. The power of language in conflict situations is a key topic of discussion. Sam provides practical techniques for effective communication, including the use of pattern interrupts to halt negative conflict and the need to focus on future solutions instead of assigning blame to the past. She suggests reframing negative accusations and stereotypes by sharing personal beliefs and experiences in a positive manner. Andy and Sam explore maintaining a positive mindset and engaging in constructive conversations, even in challenging situations. Sam compares changing communication habits to acquiring new skills, emphasising the need for practice and conscious effort. She recommends using reminder cards (Words to Use and Words to Lose) with positive phrases to interrupt negative language patterns and encourage curiosity and understanding in one-on-one interactions as a means of holding others accountable without blame. On how to address conflicts in group or meeting environments, Sam introduces the "Name the Game" technique inspired by Joan Rivers' comedic approach to guilt trips. This technique focuses on openly naming and calling out unhelpful behaviour, which neutralises it and holds individuals accountable for blocking progress. By reframing situations and redirecting focus towards productive outcomes, conflicts can be effectively managed. The importance of acknowledging the elephant in the room and fostering better communication is discussed. Sam and Andy provide practical tips and phrases such as "Could you please help me understand?" to bridge the gap between conflicting parties and promote open dialogue. Sam and Andy also discuss the challenge of dealing with individuals who consistently gravitate towards conflict. Sam acknowledges that some people thrive on negativity and attention, often acting as naysayers or fault-finders. She suggests using the person's name to redirect conversations towards the greater good, setting clear boundaries, and using a confident, final tone to indicate that further debate or discussion is not an option. Overall, this episode explores the significance of effective communication, the power of language, and practical techniques for managing conflict and changing the tone of relationships.

Rudeness is on the rise. While it seems easier to let our emotions get the best of us, doing this takes us out of alignment from a life of peace and joy. Sam Horn, author and CEO of the Intrigue Agency, graces the show and shares valuable tips on what to say (and not say) when you just don't feel like talking, and how to prevent tricky situations from getting worse. We can't control outside circumstances, but we can control how we respond and what we say. Tune in to this episode: Talking on Eggshells—What to Say When You Don't Know What To Say  Key points covered in this episode: ✔️ Never use “but” in a disagreement.  This signals an explanation that comes across as an excuse. It also signifies that you aren't holding yourself accountable for what happened. ✔️ Apologizing doesn't mean you're responsible.  It's a way to acknowledge the other person's inconvenience. Giving them compassion avoids further conflict. ✔️ Say “Yes” more often.  Instead of telling children, “No, you can't do this.” Give them a condition that they need to accomplish before they can get what they asked for. ✔️ Be more specific.  Avoid sweeping generalizations. Find out the root of the issue and address it before jumping to conclusions. ✔️ No one can make us angry without our consent.  We all have control over our own emotions. You have that power. ✔️ Set boundaries without getting angry.  You can use non-verbal cues to get people to back off when you feel like a boundary has been crossed. --------------- Sam Horn, CEO of the Intrigue Agency, is a 3-time TEDx speaker and author of 10 books - including her newest available in June, Talking on Eggshells, plus Tongue Fu!, POP!, Washington Post bestseller, Got Your Attention? - that have been featured in NY Times, Fast Company, Forbes, on NPR, and taught to Intel, Cisco, Oracle, Capital One, Fidelity, and Accenture.  Richard Branson's New Now Leaders, TED Fellows, NASA, and EO have all hired Sam to coach their executives on media training and public speaking.  Sam was Executive Director of the Maui Writers Conference (which Writers Digest called "the best writers conference in the world") for 17 years, and has helped hundreds of clients crystallize quality books and keynotes that have scaled their impact and income - for good.

Sam believe one of the best ways we can disrupt the way we do business is to disrupt the way we communicate and together with Meghan, redefines what it means to be a "powerful leader."   Respect is never demanded, it's earned.

The word imagine pulls people out of their preoccupation because they're picturing your point! They're not distracted, they're seeing what you're saying.”  -Sam Horn   “We can either reflect what is happening or we can direct what is happening, and if we are paying attention to the nuance, and to what we do want, instead of what we don't, we often can say something that will facilitate that.”  -Sam Horn   “In the real world, there are times we are the messenger of bad news, and we can't change the bad news. We can change the way we deliver the bad news, so at least people know that we care, instead of shrugging our shoulders, not my fault, don't blame me, nothing I can do.”  -Sam Horn   “Richard Branson said, time is the new money. And I think that time is a new trust and the clock starts ticking the second we stop talking. So if we hit the ground running, then people's eyebrows go up and we have earned their respect because we've already delivered value.”  -Sam Horn   "A huge part of leadership is about listening and reading the room." -Sam Horn   “The language we use is so important, as it can either create a sense of powerlessness or empowerment in ourselves and others.” -Sam Horn   "The through line from power to powerful and the thing that enables the zipline from one to the other is work on or acknowledgement of your self-worth. And the deeper your self-worth goes, the easier it is to move towards places that make you powerful as opposed to hanging onto power." -Dr. Meghan Walker   "When we have a rising tide mentality, power is just defined as the ability to get things done. And if we want to get things done, then the more we enlist people and cooperate with them and make it a win for them, the more they will want to do this instead of they have to, or they're being paid to or they're being told to." -Sam Horn   "Our role and goal in life is to be a peacemaker and to see how we can use language and set an example so other people respond in kind." -Sam Horn

In 1980, Robert Dilts modeled the patterns of such esteemed communicators as Abraham Lincoln, Gandhi, Milton Erickson, Plato, and Socrates (to name a few.)  These individuals were superb at influencing belief systems and effectively persuading with these quick verbal reframes. Dilts called these language patterns Sleight of Mouth, named after sleight of hand from artful and crafty card magicians. These patterns have a magical quality when used and can produce dramatic shifts in perception.  Sleight of Mouth is a system of language patterns for persuasion and conversational belief change.  They set off a chain reaction to unravel beliefs and help the listener shift perspectives. They are verbal reframes that influence beliefs and the mental maps they come from. There are approximately 14 patterns.For the NLP student, Purpose of Sleight of Mouth Patterns:  Shift or reframe the various elements of a belief which make up the meaning or Cause-Effect of the beliefs to widen and enrich a person's map of the world. The outcome is to open the belief to doubt and open the belief to something more empowering. What are some examples? REDEFINE: What other meaning could this have? What is another word for one of the words used in the belief statement that means something similar but has more positive implications?Pattern of Speech: It's not that I am (you are)………….. It's that …………………. or  It means…COUNTEREXAMPLE:Finding an example that does not fit the relationship defined by the belief. What is an example or experience that is an exception to the rule defined by the belief?Pattern of Speech: Haven't there been times… or Can you think of other ways…. or It is hard for me to find/think… or It is difficult for me to find/think….HIERARCHY OF CRITERIA:What are the higher criteria?  Apply the higher criteria to the current statement. What is a criterion that is potentially more important than those addressed by the belief that has not yet been considered?Pattern of Speech: Which do you think is more important……..? or ….more important….More episodes on Sleight of Mouth to come.
