The Jordan Harbinger Show

Mike Posner (@MikePosner) is a musician, poet, record producer, and singer-songwriter responsible for hits like Cooler Than Me and I Took a Pill in Ibiza. What We Discuss with Mike Posner: Can two grown men who went to rival high schools as teenagers make nice on a podcast? How experiencing fame and fortune forced Mike Posner to reexamine his values -- and why he's glad it happened to him early in life. How Mike's lifestyle changed from a focus on fame, money, and materialism to one centered around self-care, creativity, and motivation. Why Mike looks at success and failure as waves that tend to follow one another -- not states of guaranteed permanence. Is Mike walking from sea to shining sea on his own two feet in an effort to prove that this Groves Falcon is way better than any Seaholm Maple could ever be? And much more...

How do you conscientiously create social media content that doesn't inflict FOMO on others? Do you stay at your stable job that gives you more time with your family, or take the stressful, time-consuming job at the startup for the chance to make more money?

Kevin Barrows is a former FBI special agent who now conducts traditional corporate fraud investigations, reputation risk and due diligence efforts, and supervises computer forensic and computer crime assignments for Renaissance Associates. What We Discuss with Kevin Barrows: Why conducting a successful interview is an art that requires establishing credibility, understanding motivation, employing psychology, assessing body language, and listening. Why approaching a witness at an inconvenient time, in the wrong place, or in the wrong way can ruin an interview before it gets started. How to quickly identify the motivation of the person being interviewed. How to make the truth the only option for the person being interviewed.

How to determine which of the three archetypes of negotiator you're dealing with: The Analyst, The Assertive, or The Accommodator. Who has the real leverage in a kidnapping or hostage scenario -- and how this applies to your own lower-stakes negotiations. What it takes to subtly convince someone to have it your way. The Black Swan Rule: Treating others not the way you want to be treated, but the way they want to be treated. And much more...

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: What's the best way to let your parents know you appreciate all they've done for you -- especially when they let you live with them rent (and guilt) free while paying down your credit card debt? It's your absolute dream to become a race car driver, though you don't really have experience working with cars and don't want to get stuck in sales or marketing. What's your best next step?

Todd Herman (@todd_herman) is an entrepreneur, coach, mentor, and author of The Alter Ego Effect: The Power of Secret Identities to Transform Your Life. What We Discuss with Todd Herman: How you can harness the power of your own secret identity -- and why you would ever want to. What it takes to adopt seemingly out-of-character characteristics and dominate your personal and professional life. Why taking on an alter ego isn't a "fake it 'til you make it" scheme, but channeling little-used facets of yourself you may not even realize exist. The hidden enemy forces that oppose your attempts at accomplishment and how to resist their subtle and not-so-subtle influences. How to honestly understand and come to terms with what truly motivates you -- and deal with what keeps you from following these motivations. And much more...

Cesar Millan (@cesarmillan) is the internationally renowned master dog trainer known best as the Dog Whisperer, founder of the Dog Psychology Center, and best-selling author of Lessons From the Pack: Stories of the Dogs Who Changed My Life. What We Discuss with Cesar Millan: How Cesar Millan went from impoverished Sinaloan kid to homeless immigrant to world-famous Dog Whisperer. What we can learn about communicating with dogs by understanding the priority of their senses compared to our own. Why the key to correcting an "untrainable" dog is usually reprogramming the human in charge. Why the rich, famous, and powerful often find animal companionship so much more grounding than time with even their closest human friends. Why human beings are the only species on the planet that will follow an unstable leader who does not represent the greater good. And much more...

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Is your passively stoic expression (aka resting bitch face) getting you turned down for promotions? Here's some advice for turning down the Spock and cranking up the rock. How can you reduce stress and have a social life when your deadly serious job requires you to be on call 24/7/365? In trying new ways to strike up conversations without coming across as having a motive or being awkward, how do you spot the line you shouldn't cross? Are you missing out on life by not spending as much time and energy on your relationships and friendships in your 20s because you're so focused on personal development? For a year and a half, Your drug-abusing friend's been cut out of your life for ignoring the help you offered. Now he's in rehab and you don't feel much like re-engaging. Are you being selfish? You're understandably skittish about taking your dog out after he was attacked and severely injured by a bigger, unleashed dog. How can you reintroduce him to socializing, get the irresponsible owner to cover vet expenses, and prevent this from happening in the future? Is working for your significant other's brother's business -- even though you're not really qualified yet -- an opportunity or trouble waiting to happen? There are many issues at stake here, not the least of which is: what happens if you break up? Are cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies still relevant in 2019? Pro Tip: If you use AT&T, download the AT&T Call Protect app, which crowdsources spam and robocaller information. Recommendation of the Week: Inside The Mossad Quick shoutout to Mitchell Smith!

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us for this deep dive into why a lot of self-help makes you feel miserable by design and what you can do to improve yourself without being suckered by hucksters or succumbing to an existential meltdown. What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi: Why so-called "self-help" often makes you feel worse about yourself than before you sought it. How to separate actionable self-help from motivational "hustle porn" designed to prompt emotions and elicit sales. Why those inspirational bromides you’re seeing all over Instagram might goad you into short-term action, but won't do much for you over the long haul. Striving to improve yourself is admirable and encouraged -- just don't get suckered into the myth that there's a finish line. How to consume genuine self-help without being miserable while avoiding the big business con-artistry that pervades this space. And much more...

Cal Newport researches cutting-edge technology and writes about the impact of these innovations on society. He is the author of Deep Work, So Good They Can't Ignore You, and Digital Minimalism.

How Henry David Thoreau's analog lessons from Walden can be applied to your 21st century digital lifestyle.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: How can you prove that your teacher is name-grading essays without cheating on the paper? You're a veteran looking to transition back to civilian life. Here are some resources that might help (many thanks to your fellow veteran Zach Criswell for this info). When the big change you really need is a job opportunity at another company, is it unfair not to give your current employer a chance to negotiate with you to stay put? You're worried your significant other might have gotten wrapped up in an expensive self-help cult. What might you say to bring them gently back to Earth without wasting even more time and money? How do you find a lawyer who will actually get the job you need done and won't break the bank? An important network connection has offered to help you find opportunities as you're transitioning into a new field, but how can you ensure you're not biting off more than you can chew while still learning the ropes without wasting anyone's time? You're a contractor who has worked for a company that has been bought and sold three times in the past three years. How do you present this on your resume so it doesn't look like you've worked for three companies in that time? You're in your fifties and looking to open a franchise, though you don't have direct retail experience. What should you do to minimize risk so you're not burdened with debt in your retirement years should things go south?

Jaron Lanier is an early Internet pioneer, computer scientist, visual artist, musician, and author of Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Teaching your kid how to play chess? Here's a simple way to keep them engaged without crushing their spirits or throwing a single game. When your line of work grants you even a minor level of celebrity, how do you express appreciation when you're recognized without succumbing to awkwardness? How can you work with someone you don't like or respect -- and ensure that you still like and respect yourself in the process? You've been selected to give a graduation speech in front of 2,500 people and want to crush it. What can you do to be as prepared as possible? Someone owns the Web domain you want, but they're not using it. What's the best way to negotiate for it or find a close alternative? When you're in a line of work that doesn't generate repeat customers, what's the best (and least tacky) way to ask for referrals from satisfied past customers? After following the Level One exercises and re-engaging contact with a former mentor, they seem resistant to a catch-up meeting. How might you offer value to make it worthwhile for them? Meeting new people and dating when you have a chronic illness presents numerous challenges, but the biggest might be: when is it appropriate to disclose your condition to a potential relationship partner? Life Pro Tip: Make yourself manually dial some of your more important contacts on occasion so you'll know their numbers if you're ever stuck without your phone.

What We Discuss with Adam Grant: Why you probably don't know yourself as well as you think you do. Why you're prone to believe things about yourself that are patently false. How people closest to you benefit from reinforcing these falsehoods. Why the people who would most benefit from helping you see these falsehoods are the least likely to point them out.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Your new neighbor's loud arguments and wild parties at all hours would be annoying enough if they involved multiple people, but the only person who ever seems to be in attendance is her. Should you be concerned enough to inform management -- or the police? When reconnecting with someone in your network (per our Level One exercises), how can you identify ways to add value to their goals? Long-time listeners would understand a covert contract from the contractor's side of things. But what do you do if you suspect someone has a covert contract out on you? Your newest roommate is a slob who pilfers your food and doesn't clean up after himself. What can you do to put your foot down without causing too much contention? With so much motivational and personal development advice being thrown around these days, how can you tell the difference between genuine self-help and utter bullcrap? Without succumbing to the formulaic elevator pitch, how can you politely introduce yourself and make an impression when you're in convenient proximity to your company's higher-ups and decision makers? How might a public school teacher who loves to teach supplement their painfully inadequate income? What thought exercises might help someone on the edge of burning out at their job decide whether to soldier on for the next few months to qualify for a bonus or just quit now and damn the consequences?

Dave Asprey (@bulletproofexec) is a self-described biohacker, CEO and founder of Bulletproof 360, Inc., host of the Bulletproof Radio podcast, and author of Game Changers, Head Strong, and The Bulletproof Diet. What We Discuss with Dave Asprey: How Bulletproof founder Dave Asprey biohacked himself from a 300-pound heart attack waiting to happen to 9.6 percent body fat. How a prenatal condition, bullying, a thyroid condition, and toxic mold collaborated to bring Dave's health to a point so low even his doctor couldn't help him. What is your immune system's "memory" forgetting, and what role does mitochondria play in how you feel? What does Dave believe are the top two causes of autoimmunity, and what can we do to guard ourselves when our body can't even identify the enemy? Why does Dave put butter in his coffee instead of milk or cream like normal people, and what's the difference between real Bulletproof coffee and what the small-town cafe on the other side of the world is trying to peddle as "Bulletproof" coffee?

If epilepsy keeps you from driving, how can you overcome feeling like a nuisance to your friends and family -- and how do you work around it for potential dates?

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Advice for someone trying to transition into a new industry after a long time in their current, unrelated one. Your significant other always wants to shut the party down when all you want to do is go home where it's cozy and quiet. But is there a not-so-nefarious reason you haven't considered? You're paying down a massive college debt you incurred by preparing for a career you don't really like. How can you transit to another field that better suits you without going broke? Even though you're young and in an ideal relationship that already seems headed toward marriage, should an unexpected pregnancy hasten the occasion? When the coping mechanisms you use to help alleviate the burnout of your well-paying, long-term job are not keeping pace with the added stressors of that job, how do you test the waters of alternatives before it's too late? What's the real reason you can't seem to land a promotion at the company where you've worked forever? How do you best ensure an introduction between two mutually beneficial connections in your network doesn't get botched once it's out of your hands and in theirs?

Why doing what you're good at isn't always a match for what makes you feel good. How honest vulnerability (not dinner party oversharing) helps you gain insight into what makes you tick and gives your life meaning. Why people travel thousands of miles and pay thousands of dollars for clarity about their own situation they don't actually want. The deep lessons you can learn about yourself in 15 minutes from Philip's One Last Letter exercise. And much more...

What We Discuss with Shawn Achor: Positive Peer Pressure: having great people around you can help make you great (and is an even better predictor of success than qualities like grit and resilience). Why you actually achieve and perform better when you help others operate at their best. Powerful skills that allow you to make others better -- and therefore raise your own potential.

Jon Taffer (@jontaffer) is the host of acclaimed reality show Bar Rescue, host of the No Excuses podcast, and author of Don't Bullsh*t Yourself!: Crush the Excuses That Are Holding You Back. What We Discuss with Jon Taffer: The psychology behind Jon Taffer's "break them down to build them up" strategy. Are you an overachiever -- when it comes to rationalizing your excuses? Why success in business always hinges on the human factor. The benefits of hiring for personality over skill. Why Jon ruthlessly critiques his own work and how this routine ego beating has been crucial to his success. And much more...

Jason Khalipa (@JasonKhalipa) is a CrossFit Games world champion, the founder of NCFIT, and author of As Many Reps As Possible. What We Discuss with Jason Khalipa: You don't have to start out with "The Right Stuff" to accomplish great things. Is your confidence earned or perceived? Are you surrounding yourself with the right connections to succeed? Are you just talking about the things you want to do, or are you taking actionable steps to accomplish them? Can you take a joke and use it to make your life better? Jason Khalipa has -- and he can tell you how. And much more...

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: When you're the new hire on the job, how can you warm up the ice cold cliques that seem to surround you? Is there a secret technique to packing and traveling with wrinkle-free professional clothes? Even though you've rebuilt your life since spending two years in prison, you worry that people will find out about your past. How can you own it? When is it appropriate to explore medicine for depression versus continuing to make life changes? When you've got the opportunity to move your family to experience life in another country, how can you optimize your time to ensure you're living to the fullest while there? How can you improve your social skills when you feel like you don't have time to socialize? How can you express genuine support for a friend who's experienced an unfortunate setback without it seeming like you pity them?

Kai-Fu Lee (@kaifulee) is a venture capitalist, technology executive, and author of AI Superpowers: China, Silicon Valley, and the New World Order. What We Discuss with Kai-Fu Lee: Why the advent of AI is as important as the Industrial Revolution. The AI Superpowers that are competing to shape the nature of our future. How soon we can expect artificial intelligence (AI) to drastically disrupt the jobs we take for granted today. What can humans do to prepare for a future where their livelihoods might be taken over completely by AI? Should we fear what we're losing in such a future, or embrace the opportunities we're gaining?

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us to deep dive into the elusive subject of purpose -- why you’re not finding it as easily as the so-called experts say you should be, and why you should be following meaning to purpose instead of picking a purpose and hoping it’s full of meaning. [Featured image by Smart] What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi: The difference between purpose and meaning. Why reverse-engineering meaning from purpose is harder (and far less effective) than finding purpose through meaning. What an ER nurse taught Gabriel about the surprising ways meaning can manifest. Why you should be suspicious of what The Cult of Purpose is trying to sell you. The best ways to naturally follow meaning to purpose without forcing an expectation of what that purpose is.

Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason DeFillippo (@jpdef) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! Friend of the show and Entrepreneur on Fire John Lee Dumas (@johnleedumas) joins us to help a listener begin anew in a new city. If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: If there's such a thing as remorseful flirtation, how should you feel to be on the receiving end of it? As old-timers who have already been there and done that, how do we recommend you live your twenties to their fullest? The management at your current job barely acknowledges you and it's time to move on. Is it appropriate in this case to give notice by email? Will setting boundaries for your narcissistic sibling have any positive effect on your relationship, or should you just cut them off altogether? What's the best way to bid a fair-weather friend adieu after they've made it clear that visiting you on your almost-deathbed was a real inconvenience? Even though you bounced back from your layoff with a huge pay increase and promotion potential galore, you miss your old team and want to stay on good terms. How do you speed up the healing process to make this possible? When you have a lifelong habit of rejecting people before they reject you -- to the point that you've never dated and you don't have any close friends -- what can you do to become more approachable? When moving to a foreign city to reboot your personal and professional life, what's the best way to put down roots, make new connections, and get your brand noticed?

Spencer Greenberg (@SpencrGreenberg) is a mathematician, entrepreneur, and founder of Clearer Thinking, a website that trains people to overcome their own biases and make better decisions rationally. What We Discuss with Spencer Greenberg: Common logical fallacies and concepts like black and white thinking, cherry picking, straw man arguments, and the typical mind fallacy. How these logical fallacies can be so powerfully persuasive even in the face of contrary evidence, and why they inhibit our thinking and keep us from getting closer to the truth. How to spot cognitive bias in ourselves and others -- and in the sources we choose to inform us about the outside world. How we can improve our critical thinking, cut through these faulty arguments and biases, and separate fact from fiction with logic over emotion. Practical tools that allow us to cultivate clearer thinking for these often cloudy times. And much more...

Joe Navarro (@navarrotells) is a retired FBI agent, one of the world's leading experts on nonverbal communication, and author of Dangerous Personalities: An FBI Profiler Shows You How to Identify and Protect Yourself from Harmful People. What We Discuss with Joe Navarro: How coming to the United States from Cuba at an early age poised Joe Navarro to become one of the world's most respected experts in nonverbal communication. How to spot the narcissists and predators in your midst before they spot you as a clueless opportunity. What to do if you find you're already being wrapped up in the deceitful webs of these dangerous personalities and how to disentangle yourself from them. Why you often let misguided social programming override your natural instincts to sniff out the bad behavior of people in your life and how to tune into those instincts again. The best first step in arming yourself against the actions of predators and narcissists in your life -- whether they're bully bosses or abusive spouses. And much more...

Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason DeFillippo (@jpdef) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! Friend of the show and Entrepreneur on Fire John Lee Dumas (@johnleedumas) joins us to address a common concern of a lot of people have about leaving behind a miserable corporate job to pursue entrepreneurial ambitions. If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: You're at a new job and they've already pegged you as the "quiet" one. But what do they really mean? How do you find a tribe of like-minded, growth-oriented people who don't seem like they're part of some motivational cult? After so many "we should hang outs" without follow-ups, should you just accept that a best friend isn't in the cards for you at this point? With a full-time job, supportive girlfriend, and research papers taking up most of your time, how and where can you find opportunities to grow your skill set? You're young, successful, and ready for a relationship -- but you can't seem to find anyone whose drive goes beyond Netflix and work. Where should you be looking? You're good at chatting when given interesting subjects to talk about, but have no skills in coming up with those subjects. How do you create meaningful conversations from scratch? You've got a great job and a comfortable lifestyle, but you regret never finishing college or following your intended career path. Are you a fool to go back to school? Even though you know the entrepreneurial life is right for you, how do you politely convey to your well-meaning but kind of clueless friends that you're not looking for another corporate job?

Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason DeFillippo (@jpdef) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! Friend of the show and Entrepreneur on Fire John Lee Dumas (@johnleedumas) joins us to tackle one of our trickier questions about starting a side hustle! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Are once-friendly people really avoiding you for some unknown reason, or is their perceived lack of interaction largely in your own socially anxious head? When you're young and in long-distance love but also looking for a new career path, should you follow your heart and move closer to your sweetheart or follow your head and pursue local educational opportunities in your chosen field? What's the most graceful way to turn down a retention bonus without sending a signal to the company you are looking for another job? You're newly single and going to yoga classes. You want to ask out someone who seems to be expressing interest in you, but you also want to respect the yoga space and not tarnish your ongoing practice at this studio. What's the right next move? You've recently been made privy to sensitive information about your clients from a well-meaning but careless business contact. How do you make this contact understand -- without being ungrateful for their effort -- that such information in the hands of someone less ethical could jeopardize their career and the integrity of your organization? Your boss treats you as a liability rather than an asset thanks to fabricated and unsubstantiated accusations made against you in the past, but rumor has it this person is leaving in a few months. Is it worth your time to get this person to see your value, or should you just stay under the radar until the (fingers crossed) new boss arrives on the scene? Your morale is low at your current company, and in spite of skill stacking to position yourself uniquely in any number of other companies, you can't seem to land an interview elsewhere. Is it time to scratch that entrepreneurial itch you've been feeling with at least an honest foray into the side hustle? What can you do to mend the divide between you and someone with whom you shared a relationship when you empathize with why that person isn't exactly the president of your fan club?

Srini Rao (@unmistakableceo) is the host and founder of the Unmistakable Creative podcast and author of An Audience of One: Reclaiming Creativity for Its Own Sake. What We Discuss with Srini Rao: How an ADHD diagnosis in his mid-twenties and the inability to hold down a real job forced Srini to develop his own tools and systems for harnessing creativity and boosting production. Why expressing your creativity on a regular basis -- even when it's done without the intention of reaching an audience or being commercially successful -- can be incredibly beneficial to every area of your life. Research shows that being creative can actually make you happier, help you recover from trauma, and increase your productivity. How you can cultivate your own creativity even if you're the type of person who thinks you don't have any to begin with. Why you don't have to be a creative genius or successful artist to take advantage of the creativity-happiness connection. And much more...

Chris "Drama" Pfaff (@dramadrama) is a former reality TV personality, host of the Short Story Long Podcast, and founder of streetwear clothing line Young and Reckless. What We Discuss with Chris Pfaff: Why Chris decided to take his skateboard from suburban Akron -- where escaped cows made the evening news -- to Los Angeles, where high-speed car chases barely raise eyebrows. What it's taken so far for Chris to make it in today's cutthroat fashion business climate -- especially when he has to work twice as hard to overcome what others expect from his "dumb" reality TV persona. How to stay tenacious -- like someone raised in the Midwest -- when you fail over and over again. Why sometimes running a business -- even something as fun and exciting as a top-level streetwear brand -- can be more of a curse than a blessing. How Chris feels about regretting something he has done versus regretting something he hasn't done. And much more... Sport Clips is like no other place you've ever gotten your hair cut.

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: When is a cheater no longer a cheater, and when is an addict no longer an addict? If you're going for quality connections over quantity, is meeting four people in two hours at a networking event reasonable? How do you set boundaries when a family member on hard times has overstayed their welcome in your home? Who'd have thought the parents at your kid's new school are more cliquish than their offspring? What can you do to win them over -- or should you? Because you didn't just wait until you were thirsty to dig the well -- you ate a spoonful of salt, too -- how can you recover from job instability when it already seems too late? If you're employed in a full time but unfulfilling job purely for the cash, when is it time to take your side hustle more seriously? Being the trustee of a family trust is hard enough without someone in your own family negotiating like a jerk for more than their fair share. So what would make the situation easier?

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us for this deep dive into identifying and overcoming imposter syndrome -- the sinking feeling that your accolades are unearned, your successes are undeserved, and you'll be discovered for the fraud you (think you) are at any moment by somebody -- anybody -- more qualified than you (which only seems to be everybody)! [Photo by Steve Lundqvist] What We Discuss with Gabriel Mizrahi: Why you're not alone in feeling pangs of imposter syndrome (or imposter experience or imposter phenomenon, depending on who you ask) -- it strikes nearly everyone (even elite athletes and military special forces) from time to time. How to tell the difference between true fraudulence and imposter syndrome -- and act accordingly. The three behaviors that should help you avoid feeling imposter syndrome but counterintuitively tend to reinforce it. The two common beliefs that invite imposter syndrome to visit most frequently. What you can learn from incidents of imposter syndrome to grow more resistant to its eerily convincing distortions of reality. And much more...

Jordan Harbinger (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason DeFillippo (@jpdef) banter and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday right here every week! If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Your brother in law is a narcissist with a bad case of PLOM (Poor Little Old Me) Disease and is clearly in the mindset to cheat on your sister -- if he hasn't already. Is it your place to warn her even though it'll devastate the family? Is it your fault that you -- and the rest of your coworkers -- are always disappointing your boss because you never seem to be able to read her mind and discern her intentions? Using the networking skills we teach in Six-Minute Networking, how do you actively develop new contacts? When your current job was able to accommodate your needs in order to retain you, you had to renege on another job offer you had already accepted. How do you reach out to make peace and mend a bridge you never intended to burn? When you have an estranged parent who has only lied to you and disappointed you over the course of your entire life, how should you take their disclosure of a personal tragedy? After graduation, you'll have three months until you start your full-time job. Should you use the money you've saved up through college to travel for those three months, or should you use it to pay your student loans? You work in an office full of people who share political views that widely differ from your own. Should you put up with it quietly, offer your counterpoints, just pretend to agree with them to avoid friction, or look for a new job entirely? When you live in a country overrun by state-driven propaganda, what's the best way to stay informed of real current events so you can critically weigh the evidence and formulate your own views?

Kristen Carney (@KristenCarney) is a comedian, writer, host of the Mentally Ch(ill) and Ask Women podcasts, and someone who publicly copes with -- as many silently do -- depression. What We Discuss with Kristen Carney: Understand why someone who seems to have it all on the outside might really be dying on the inside. Deal with the aftermath when someone close takes their own life -- even when part of you empathizes with their reasons. Be your own champion: reach out to your family and friends who support you through the highs and lows before you're at your wit's end. How the Internet has exacerbated suicidal tendencies since the '90s. Why comparing our blooper reel to the highlight reel of others will always lead to our downfall. And much more...

He is the author of several books on the subject, most recently The Evolution of Desire: Strategies of Human Mating. What We Discuss with David Buss: How dating apps work and what they're doing to our brains. Mate-switching strategies: why affairs happen and the mechanisms at play. How we can track our own mate value to keep our relationships strong and secure. Why mating strategies tend to be universal even if their cultural variations seem to suggest otherwise. Why a vacation with your partner is a good stress-test for seeing what might be in store for your future together. And much more...

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at [email protected]. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Is partaking of a small amount of marijuana in the evening akin to relaxing with a glass of wine at the end of the day, or are you just lying to yourself in order to justify an unhealthy addiction? Also: is it worth the risk if it's not legal in your area? How do you become essential to a fast-growing company that has so much to offer your career among a peer group with a competitive but respectful corporate spirit? How do you navigate the chain of command without stepping on toes when you know your boss' boss is more competent than your boss and prefer to work with her when something needs to be done? You're naturally shy and don't have much contact with your old friends these days. How do you work up the courage to go out and meet people who have the potential to be your new friends? You've graduated from high school and now you're in a gap year before you go to college. You've been offered a management position at your current job, but it would further delay your college plans. Should you take the opportunity for promotion, or stick with your plan to start school next year? Are you crazy for wanting to transition away from a well-paying job with great benefits toward a sustainable digital nomad lifestyle -- especially when you and your wife are planning to raise a family? Is the idea of going back to college your solution for being unable to cope with the stress of your challenging job, or are you just not adjusting to being the low person on the totem pole?

Freeway Rick Ross (@FreewayRicky) managed a billion-dollar drug empire in the age of Iran-Contra, now helps rebuild at-risk communities, and is featured in the Emmy-nominated documentary Freeway: Crack in the System. What We Discuss with Freeway Rick Ross: How Rick went from a tennis scholarship track in high school to a young adulthood making cocaine appealing and affordable for a growing urban clientele. The escalation of Rick's business model thanks to an immensely helpful Nicaraguan connection during the Reagan administration. Why Rick wished he had more hours a day in prison -- a place where most people are just looking to kill time.

On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Did you know we have a YouTube channel? We do, and you can find it here! How do you deal with family members who threw you under the bus for inheritance money and now try to act nice to you like this never happened? What's wrong with asking for advice while simultaneously offering something in return? If you don't like the current trajectory of a conversation, how do you change the subject smoothly? As a recent transplant to your neighborhood, how do you introduce yourself to the new neighbors without being intrusive? How much do you share with your audience when the boundaries for sharing are blurry? When the shadow of your past might have an impact on your future once revealed by old contacts mixing with your new, should you just avoid social media altogether? When change is in the air -- like returning to school after a long hiatus -- how do you embrace the good feelings you have about the change without being heavily distracted by the bad?

Nadya Tolokonnikova (@tolokno) is one of feminist art punk collective Pussy Riot's most visible members, and she's the author of Read & Riot: A Pussy Riot Guide to Activism. What We Discuss with Nadya Tolokonnikova: The roots of Nadya's distrust of authority -- and why she became a headstrong activist against it at an age when many Americans are only beginning to discover themselves. What Pussy Riot's protest art aims to accomplish by openly defying such authority. What life in a Russian prison labor camp is really like and how Nadya and her bandmates survived their sentence for "hooliganism" there. How today's young people are making contributions to their communities in ways undreamt of just a generation ago (and often pulling bigger paychecks than their parents). The potential perils of shoplifting to survive for eight years and creating DIY music in a corrupt police state without a stunt double. And much more... Does your business have an Internet presence?
