  • How to Stay Calm When You’re Disrespected
    Apr 1 2025
    You are not a target. Not a punching bag. Not the release valve for someone else’s frustration. In the middle of the book tour whirlwind, I’m reflecting on a powerful review someone left for The Next Conversation and diving into the first and most foundational rule of the book: say it with control. I’ll walk you through a mindset shift that’s helped thousands of people—not just to win arguments, but to protect their peace. We talk about regulating our fight-or-flight response, how to use your breath as a pause button, and why you are never required to absorb someone else’s emotional baggage.

    Ever feel like you’re talking but not really connecting? Or maybe you’re in a conversation, and you know the other person is just waiting for their turn to talk?

I’m sitting down with Charles Duhigg, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Supercommunicators, to talk about what the best communicators do differently.

Jefferson is The Best!

Since the very first reel I saw of Jefferson on Instagram I was hooked on his advice.
Jefferson answers a lot of questions I’ve had in my mind about how to handle certain situations or people. He delivers the information in such a way that I completely understand, relate with and have even found ways to apply in my life.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and nature with the rest of us Jefferson. Your voice has now got a place in my mind that will help me in those situations I previously did not know how to approach. The world is a better place with you in it and I wish you success and happiness!

Taking a breath

I came across your posts on instagram and have been hooked ever since. I blurt out responses and continue to talk and talk and talk. Taking a breath is the key for me, it’s my first word, a breath, what a revelation. My brain runs at a million miles an hour, late diagnosis of ADHD has given me clarity about the way I communicate. Your podcasts are perfect for me, your clear and use simple language and techniques. I fill silence with fluff, I’m going to practice getting comfortable with silence. Thank you, you have made a huge difference to my life

The right phrases to say to allow communication to flow and to diffuse situations

Great advice across a plethora of situational challenges both in the workplace and personal relationships.
Looking forward to the book launching soon!
