  • When to Speak Up

    When to Speak Up
    Jan 27 2026
    We spend so much time waiting for the “perfect moment” to speak up — but the truth is, that moment rarely comes. In this episode, I break down why delaying hard conversations only creates bigger problems, how to recognize when now is the right time, and a simple framework to help you decide when to speak and when to pause. You’ll learn the difference between a better time and a perfect time (spoiler: one doesn’t exist), plus a golden rule that can save you from saying something you’ll regret. If there’s a conversation you’ve been putting off, this episode is for you. *BONUS* see if you can spot the nugget at the start of this episode before we dive in 😆 Order The Next Conversation Workbook: https://www.jeffersonfisher.com/workbook Thank you to our sponsors: Cozy Earth.

  • The Lawyer’s Method to Shut Down Narcissism

    The Lawyer’s Method to Shut Down Narcissism
    Jan 20 2026
    If you’ve ever walked away from a conversation feeling spun, rattled, or subtly controlled, this episode is for you. Drawing directly from my experience as a trial lawyer, I break down the exact strategy I use in court to disarm manipulative and narcissistic behavior—without escalating, over-explaining, or losing your footing. You’ll learn how to stop their momentum, respond in a way that gives them nothing to grab onto, and use one powerful phrase that instantly puts you back in control of the conversation.

  • How to Sound Assertive Without Sounding Rude

    How to Sound Assertive Without Sounding Rude
    Jan 13 2026
    In this episode, I break down how to communicate clearly and confidently without crossing into rude or aggressive territory. You’ll learn why tone matters more than words, how to frame sentences so people actually listen, and why the most assertive communicators say less, not more. If you’ve ever been told you’re “too soft” or worried about coming off harsh, this one will change how you speak immediately.

I heard of Jefferson because of Ed Mylett. Jeffersons way of talking and explaining his message is world class. His latest book has changed my perspective about a lot in our lives. This podcast is one of the top 5 in the world right now because of Jefferson. The methods he uses to describe his messaging is easy to follow and anyone can do it.

An Amazing and simple podcast

Some folks feel volume is the answer. Just because a person speaks loudly does not make them right. There is wisdom in these podcasts. One has much to gain by listening to these nuggets of truth.

So glad Jefferson is expanding his social media videos to this platform. I find his suggestions incredibly helpful both in my personal and professional life.

Excellent content

Jefferson’s Instagram content always provides relevant, concise, and actionable insights. And I’m happy to see that the podcast expands on these qualities, while still maintaining a listener-friendly 15-20 minute format. This approach caters perfectly to people who are seeking good advice without a significant time investment…Followed! :)
