  • How to Handle Nervousness Before a Big Conversation

    How to Handle Nervousness Before a Big Conversation
    Apr 8 2025
    Let’s talk about nerves. I say this all the time—it is totally normal to feel nervous before a conversation. In fact, it's a good thing. It means you care. But what you do with that nervousness can completely change how the conversation goes. In this episode, I’m sharing three techniques I use myself and teach often—especially when people ask me how to stay calm, confident, and connected when it matters most. Whether you’ve got a big conversation coming up or just want to communicate with more ease, this one’s for you. This episode is sponsored by Cozy Earth. Upgrade Your Every Day.

  • How to Stay Calm When You’re Disrespected

    How to Stay Calm When You’re Disrespected
    Apr 1 2025
    You are not a target. Not a punching bag. Not the release valve for someone else’s frustration. In the middle of the book tour whirlwind, I’m reflecting on a powerful review someone left for The Next Conversation and diving into the first and most foundational rule of the book: say it with control. I’ll walk you through a mindset shift that’s helped thousands of people—not just to win arguments, but to protect their peace. We talk about regulating our fight-or-flight response, how to use your breath as a pause button, and why you are never required to absorb someone else’s emotional baggage.

    Charles Duhigg: Asking Questions That Build Instant Connection
    Mar 25 2025
    Ever feel like you’re talking but not really connecting? Or maybe you’re in a conversation, and you know the other person is just waiting for their turn to talk? Well, today’s episode is about to change that. I’m sitting down with Charles Duhigg, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Supercommunicators, to talk about what the best communicators do differently. And here’s the kicker: it’s not about being the most persuasive—it’s about knowing how to ask the right questions. Like what you hear? Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a 5-star review!

Makes awkward conversations easy. Incredible!

Jefferson is a compassionate master communicator and a passionate teacher of skills to help good people navigate the complexities of modern life. Ideal for everyday life or business. Throughly recommended. I’ve been following him on Tik Tok for some time. I’ve even pre-ordered his audio book!
