Negotiation isn’t just for boardrooms—it’s a life skill we all need, especially in today’s world where inflation impacts everything from salaries to everyday purchases. In this episode of Emboldened with Jessica, we dive into how to stand up for your worth and navigate negotiations with confidence.

Jessica kicks things off by sharing her journey of negotiating for a new car, revealing the surprising (and sometimes sneaky) sales tactics dealerships use. From there, she and Producer Ariele explore how negotiation extends beyond money, touching on how we negotiate boundaries, relationships, and everyday situations.

Finally, the episode draws inspiration from former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss’s book, Never Split the Difference, breaking down tips and strategies that will empower you to negotiate effectively—whether it’s at work, at the car dealership, or in life.

🎧 Key Takeaways:

  • Why negotiation is an essential skill for everyone.
  • Real-life insights on navigating unexpected tactics during negotiations.
  • How community support can boost your confidence in high-stakes moments.
  • Practical tips for asserting yourself in money matters and beyond.

This episode is here to remind you: that negotiating isn’t about conflict—it’s about honoring your value.
