036: How to Negotiate From Abundance
Have you ever had emotion interfere with a possible resolution or interfere in a conflict situation? If you're like most people, the answer is almost certainly 'yes'. Some people believe emotion is a valuable tool in facing conflict while others argue that emotion has no place in negotiations. The truth is, if you are in a negotiating situation, emotions can be your friend or foe. In addition to material interests at stake in any negotiation, people also have emotional needs. So, ignore emotions at your peril! In this episode, Cindy talks about how to effectively use emotion to your advantage in negotiations and how to avoid having emotion use you. You'll explore 9 key Negotiation Emotional Do's and Don'ts including: Do self-regulate Do practice tactical empathy Do get them to agree with you Do let them think they are in control Do mirror their words Don't go for a yes Don't underestimate the role of emotional intelligence Don't let yourself get thrown off balance in the negotiation Don't enter into the negotiation without thinking of your feelings at the end You'll also come away with some game-changing questions you can ask yourself before going into your negotiation to show up with strong emotional intelligence and increase your chances of getting what you want and deserve.

035: Is the Feminine Voice the Key to Shift the World Out of Chaos?
Is the Feminine Voice the Key to Shift the World Out of Chaos? What if the rise of the feminine voice was the key to our future? Join Cindy as she explores the importance of voice and how the world scales tipped to such a state of imbalance by discounting the feminine voice and defining success based on a 'masculine' model. We examine studies that reflect deeply conditioned unconscious gender biases and the impact these biases have in the world balance. As more people reject their feminine strengths in favour of masculine, believing that's the only way to succeed, the world shifts out of balance. Technological advances that would have been unthinkable not long ago are now commonplace. We have such potential at our fingertips. And yet, suicide rates are at an all-time high. Depression and anxiety as well. Across ages and cultures. We're experiencing the effects of climate change … and now the chaos of COVID. Consider how we take control of our lives when we have so little control over much of what happens around us. What if everything you thought you knew about negotiation was wrong. In fact, what if it was counter-productive? Get introduced to a simple model that can elevate your influence and persuasive abilities to get better outcomes, more creative outcomes, better buy-in, less conflict, longer lasting agreements, better relationships, and more positive impact – both personally and professionally.

031: How to Overcome Self-Limiting Beliefs in Negotiations
What is a self-limiting belief? It's a hidden script, playing in your subconscious mind that runs your life without you even realizing it. Self-limiting beliefs are those things about yourself that you believe to be true, which are setting limits on your abilities. They are whispering to you that something isn't true, that it isn't achievable. You may not even know what your self-limiting beliefs are. But you know something is nibbling away at you as you struggle to make something happen. In the case of negotiation, you may be trying hard to reach a result that just isn't happening. A self-limiting belief is the likely culprit. Join Cindy Watson as she tackles common self-limiting beliefs; how they're formed; why self-limiting beliefs are so destructive to your negotiation success; and how to overcome them. Just imagine how much more significant your personal potential would be if every belief you had completely supported and nurtured you? And on the flip side, think about how you are sabotaging your progress and success if they don't. That's why it's essential to overcome your self-limiting beliefs and realize your true potential in negotiation.
