Today you’re learning the best relationship advice no one ever tells you.

Because the BEST relationships start with better conversations.

Nobody teaches you that.

If you’ve ever been in a situation where family and friends don’t agree with you, or they don’t like the direction you’re taking your life, it’s frustrating.

Not knowing how to deal with that can damage relationships with people you love.

Today’s episode will teach you how to speak so that people listen, so you can keep the people in your life that you really care about.

Today Lisa Bilyeu joins Mel on the podcast. Lisa is the co-founder of the billion-dollar brand Quest Nutrition and president of Impact Theory Studios. Her wildly successful career started with a childhood dream to make movies. But in a traditional Greek family that didn’t support her ambitions and wanted her to be a housewife, that dream caused a lot of friction.

Lisa had to build a framework for having difficult conversations and get the people she loved to understand her dreams and support her career. This framework made it easier to go after her dreams, while staying close to the people she loved.

Learn how YOU can use this framework so that people in your life want to listen when you speak.
