What Successful Communicators Do In The Boardroom And Bedroom
Mixing Business With Pleasure
In this solo episode, I discuss how the most successful business owners, executives and team players listen more than they speak. These folks do not have the need to be the centre of attention. Instead, they become curious and inquisitive when speaking to their business or intimate partner. They are more interested in you than in themselves and their prerogatives. This is, of course, true in personal relationships. John Gottman, a well-known psychologist specializing in interpersonal relationships, often examined how conflict was resolved during political discussions during times of war,...

Solo Episode - Podcast Update: Shifting Focus to Relationship and Dating Advice
Mixing Business With Pleasure
Yes, I decide to close up this Podcast! In this final episode, I explain why. The health and wellness space is flooded with fear-inducing health claims, often implying that you need to invest in various products to improve your well-being. It’s making us stressed and may even be causing orthorexia for some. Very few people are telling you what you really need to hear, which is that you need to dumb down and simplify your life. This doesn’t cost you money and only requires common sense—not a biochemistry degree. I will continue to interview expert guests, just on another show. Listen...
