Ep. 98: Book I Recommend -- Doctor Who: The Ruby's Curse: River Song Novel

I'm about to show my super nerd card here. This isn't just any Doctor Who spinoff. It's written by the actress who actually played River Song in the series, and she narrates the audiobook herself. Think 1939 private eye detective story, except the detective happens to be a time traveler dealing with aliens and ridiculous hijinks. Even if you're not into Doctor Who, it works as a standalone time-traveling mystery. But if you are a fan, you'll love seeing River Song's wit and charm come through exactly as the actress intended. Fair warning: the early Doctor Who seasons have terrible special effects, but the plots and characters more than make up for it. --- Doctor Who: The Ruby's Curse: River Song Novel:       https://amzn.to/3LCtDpG [https://amzn.to/3LCtDpG] --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

Ep. 97: Book I Recommend -- The Truth Detector by Jack Schafer & Marvin Karlins, Ph.D.

This isn't about intimidation tactics you see on TV - it's about elicitation techniques that actually work. It's written by an ex-FBI agent. And yes, it'll help you catch people lying. But more importantly, it'll help you build richer relationships. You'll get an inside look on the subconscious drivers in all of us, and learn how to understand the fears, desires, and emotions that drive our behavior. It's well-written, full of great stories, and surprisingly practical for everyday life. It's not just about lying - read it whether you're working with clients, navigating family relationships, or just trying to get a better understanding of navigating what makes us tick. --- The Truth Detector: An Ex-FBI Agent's Guide for Getting People to Reveal the Truth       https://amzn.to/3yYcW05 [https://amzn.to/3yYcW05] --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

Ep. 96: Book I Recommend -- Negotiating the Impossible by Deepak Malhotra

I read a lot of books (200+ each year), and I'm often asked for recommendations. In this episode, I share why Negotiating the Impossible by Deepak Malhotra stands out among these exceptional reads. Malhotra gives some excellent advice on negotiation, and he's earned the right to know what he's talking about. Maybe the things we negotiate in our lives aren't as intense as the geopolitical negotiations Malhotra has been through. But that's all the more reason why his insight can apply to us. Negotiation is all around us, from daily relationships to big business deals. This book is a gamechanger for how you view negotiations, from the big to the small. --- Negotiating the Impossible: How to Break Deadlocks and Resolve Ugly Conflicts (Without Money or Muscle):        https://amzn.to/3ySmPwE [https://www.amazon.com/Negotiating-Impossible-audiobook/dp/B01COQ0IXQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1RZC8K5TQPQU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.A2S34Uk5XoHBBkQBjJ9xjtxc3a7_oI5pwRzkjS-dy4rxQxTQRX4ltxmYwACPjyxVkE44_Q-IHoqj9-yVpRjUlrN7olk95VSUBkM_oaV0VVY.nb5eI1uIbmtymkuaBWe7SHhmgJKX52mNha5_jqLo2go&dib_tag=se&keywords=negotiating+the+impossible&qid=1750043244&s=audible&sprefix=negotiating+the+impossibl%2Caudible%2C71&sr=1-1] --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

Ep. 95: More Reminders, More Discipline

People assume I'm naturally disciplined, but I was famously undisciplined well into my 20s - performance improvement plans, boss lectures, the whole mess. But over the years, I've learned how to change things around. And this didn't happen alone. I took action and accountability, and implemented various systems of reminders through the rhythms of my life. And with more reminders came more discipline. I'll share how this system transformed my own discipline, and how implementing a similar system can transform yours too. --- P.S.: If you have a brand, and you want to learn exactly how to transform it into a game-changer in your industry, then Legendary Brands Academy was made with you in mind.

Ep. 94: Two Ways to Become Awesome

I'm in a lifelong pursuit to become awesome -- not 'better than everyone else' awesome, but truly living an epic, adventurous life. And I've discovered there are two distinct paths to get there.
