Help Wanted

Jason sat down with Shark Tank’s Robert Herjavec and learned a sales technique so simple and so unexpected that it can change the way you pitch, present, and connect with anyone. He unpacks how it works, why it’s unforgettable, and how you can use it everywhere in your life. You may even find the results shocking.

Today, Jason and Nicole dissect a real cold email their Producer Morgan received— and it's not pretty. They talk about what went wrong, and how to write an email that people actually respond to.

Today, Nicole and Jason are tackling a question that parents are increasingly struggling with: is it bad to post photo of my kids online?

When failure happens, what happens next? In this episode, Jason shares a simple way to reframe setbacks so they feel energizing instead of defeating. Through stories from the business world and his own career, he shows how to turn every failure into progress and keep moving forward.

This one gets deep. Nicole kicks things off with a provocative question: throughout Jason’s career in journalism, has he seen anyone successfully get a story about themselves erased from the internet? The question turns into a vulnerable conversation about whether the internet is forever, how we can feel a sense of control over the uncontrollable, and what is the price of reputation.

This week, Jason digs into three big questions. How do humble people get ahead? How should you think about your future? And how do you know when an idea is ready for prime time? The answers are surprising, useful, and connected by one common theme.  We’re all works in progress, and that’s exactly how growth happens.

 A friend of the show calls in with an awkward question, “How do you ask someone for money they don’t even know they owe?” Jason and Nicole walk through every possible misstep and outcome, from the awkward ask to the aftermath. And then - our caller sends the text. You’ll hear exactly what happens next.

You might be clear about what you offer a client, but do you really understand what they need on a deeper level?
