Feeling unsure how to navigate your career or money decisions in 2026? FBI Negotiator Chris Voss is back sharing the exact mindset and negotiation strategies he’s used in the highest-stakes situations. From layoffs to tough conversations, he breaks down how your inner dialogue, not your circumstances, is what determines your outcome. We dive into why “no” is actually your advantage, how to avoid the biggest negotiation traps, and the emotional intelligence skills that separate top performers from everyone else. I even found myself rethinking how I approach difficult people and high-pressure situations. Get ready to negotiate with more confidence, clarity, and control.
