Episode 137 Alexandra Carter How To Ask For More and Turn "No" into "Yes" | The Tim Castle Show

Todays guest is one of the most respected voices in modern negotiation.

She’s a professor at Columbia Law School, a negotiation trainer to the United Nations, and the bestselling author of Ask for More - a book that has changed how millions of people think about advocating for themselves.

Her work challenges a deeply ingrained myth: that negotiation is about confrontation, pressure, or power.

Instead, she teaches something far more effective - that the right question, asked at the right moment, can completely change the outcome of a conversation.

She’s helped diplomats navigate international crises, leaders negotiate careers and compensation, and everyday people learn how to ask for what they deserve — without fear, guilt, or burnout.

Today, we’re going to talk about why asking is a skill, how to negotiate without aggression, and how to show up with confidence in the moments that matter most.
