Continuing the masterclass on confident communication, Part 2 of Lisa Bilyeu’s transformative interview with Kwame Christian dives even deeper into the actionable side of navigating life’s toughest conversations. This half is your tactical toolkit for boundary-setting, breaking free from people-pleasing, and leveling up your negotiation skills—both with others and with yourself.
Kwame and Lisa walk through the overlooked power of having a conversation “about the conversation”—from inviting others into dialogue with respect for timing, to tackling the tricky dynamics of dueling truths and differing upbringings. You’ll discover how to pivot conflicts into cooperative journeys, decode body language for deeper understanding, and master the art of healthy detachment in the face of disrespect. Plus, Kwame reveals the core negotiation issue most women face (and how to finally advocate for what you truly want), the script for when someone refuses to listen, and the surprising power of indifference. Insightful, practical, and empowering, this episode leaves you ready to be the hero of your own life—no matter who’s on the other side of the table.
