If you're familiar with his work, you'll know that he's gone deep into understanding how technology + digital ownership is changing the game.

Communication is one of the most powerful skills a human can master. Exceptional people speak in a cadence, have a pleasant aura, listen to and validate others, and use broad, straightforward gestures to communicate. You've heard the phrase, "It's not what you say it's how you say it?" In this episode, Joe Navarro explains how to use nonverbals to communicate more effectively. With 25 years in the FBI, specializing in counterintelligence and behavioral assessment, Joe has authored 14 books in 29 languages dealing with human behavior and body language. After more than a decade, What Every BODY is Saying, remains the #1 selling body-language book in the world. Louder Than Words, based on his annual lectures at the Harvard Business School over the last twelve years, was hailed by The Wall Street Journal as "One of the six best business books to read for your career." Joe's newest book, Be Exceptional, highlights five distinguishable traits that most exceptional humans possess. At first, putting together the pieces to understand what makes a great communicator seems daunting. But rest assured that these skills are learnable. Enjoy! Have a question?

How often do you catch yourself in a storm of self-defeating thoughts? Do you tend to be self-critical and drift toward worry regardless of the circumstances? How do you usually talk to yourself? Are you your own cheerleader? How often do you hear in your head statements like "I'm no good"? You can't reason with your reptilian brain, but the good news is that it learns through action. Every time you take action and survive, it learns a new lesson. In other words, the process of facing fear, acknowledging it, taking action, is like a muscle. The more you work it, the easier it becomes. This is one of the best mechanisms that I know for reducing the volume of negative self-talk because taking even small actions in the face of fear helps you become more confident. Today's episode is a reminder to evaluate how you talk to yourself. Timestamps: [00:00] Intro [01:05] Language is incredibly powerful, and you're in charge of writing your life script. [02:47] Fear is a gift, a precious instinct. [04:09] Take action despite fear. [05:21] Naysayers are not in the room with you right now. Is fear doing a table read? [06:36] Actions plus positive self-talk will be your ticket to writing your own script in life. Do not let your monkey brain rehearse lines from old scripts. [07:55] Just do it! Enjoy!

With so much information, and gadgets and access and hustle and email and …and.. aren't you overloaded at work!? It's understandable and it's a real problem. If this describes you or someone you love…you'll LOVE this episode of the show. Enter: Jason Fried. He's the brilliant NYT best-selling author and co-founder of the software firm, Basecamp. Since long before meeting Jason in person he's always caught my eye as perhaps THE outspoken thinker / critic of the current status of work, our unhealthy habits around our jobs, and our addictions to busy-making. Whether it's the toxic hustle, the grow-at-all-cost mentality, or the idea of working your fingers to the bone…Jason helps us all see why 99% of this approach is rubbish. And within 3 minutes of meeting him / listening to this episode, I'm banking you'll be in agreement with him. The one refreshing difference with Jason? He also gives us a roadmap to fix what we've broken. In this episode we talk about his latest book (co-authored with previous CJLIVE podcast guest David Heinemeier Hansson) called It Doesn't Have to be Crazy at Work, which lays out a play-by-play on how to avoid all exhaustion, stress, and burnout and how to find tools for reshaping success, habits, trust, self care, and gaining that much-needed fresh perspective. In this episode, we cover How hard work and hours are not the same thing. In fact, long hours leads to burn out. Why instant communication (slack, messenger, text etc) is making us slaves to our devices, less effective, and spending more time on the conveyor belt of information consumption than doing any real work. Some insights and strategies for regaining control over our screen time, our sleep patterns, and where we put our our attention. A re-framing of our always-busy culture around the JOYS of missing out. Not FOMO…we're talking JOMO. Why regaining control of our time starts with learning how to say no. …and that's all in the first 10 minutes. Just kidding but you get the point. This episode of the podcast is chock full of inspired virtues for reclaiming our spirit, doing GREAT work and loving life in the process. Enjoy! Have a question?

What do you think of when you hear the word fitness? Going to the gym? Going for a run? Yoga? For most of us, fitness is something that we do. We block off an hour or two during the day to focus on our physical health. We get our sweat session in, but then what? On the show this week, we are joined by Aaron Alexander. Aaron is a manual therapist and movement coach, as well as an author (The Align Method), and host of the Align Podcast. Aaron's message is clear. Fitness is not what you do - it's who you are. On today's show we talk about: Our bodies are under construction 100% of the time. Chronic pain is a huge issue in the US and other Western nations. The main differentiator between us and one of the healthiest populations in the world is not in the way we work out, but in the way we rest. The importance of setting up your work and living environment Using sleep and nature as weapons And a lot more. Enjoy! Have a question?

Nothing intimidates a writer more than a blank page. Yet, the tranquillity in the white space is what stimulates thinking. As a communicator and storyteller, isn't creativity all about contemplating filling up those white spaces with words? Margaret Atwood is an award-winning author whose work has been published in more than forty-five countries in multiple forms of creative expression, including graphic novels, TV series and films. Her latest novel, The Testaments, sequel to her award-winning bestseller The Handmaid's Tale, won the 2019 Booker Prize. She is the recipient of numerous other awards, including the Peace Prize of the German Book Trade, the Franz Kadka International Literary Prize, the PEN Center USA Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Los Angeles Times Innovator's Award. In this discussion, Margaret answers questions about how to unleash the potential of the blank page, turn the idea of a character or a theme into a novel, and retell your story through a different creative medium. Margaret also explores storytelling in exquisite detail, drawing from her love for history to explain its origination and historical significance. A novel is not a box you get to store things into; it's an art you sculpt. You decide what to make out of it. And as Margaret explains, it doesn't always turn right. It could take several misspellings and failures before landing the perfect draft. Enjoy! Have a question?
