"We're not paying attention to maintaining the relationships that we claim are important to us." -Joey Coleman What We Discussed with Joey Coleman: Why everyone has customers -- even if we don't own a business. Why the first hundred days of a customer life cycle are the most important -- and if you can get the experience right within this time frame, you've got a customer for life. The eight phases of a customer journey and how they apply to business and personal relationships. The experience mindset -- why it's important and how we can develop it. Why Joey's only gotten three tickets in spite of being pulled over by the police 81 times. And much more...

How we can use the defining moment formula to create such moments for ourselves and others. The opportunity most companies miss when hiring a new employee and how one organization goes over the top to get it right. Action leads to insight more often than insight leads to action. Why time seems to go faster as we age. And much more...

Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Sending a question for Feedback Friday? Remember: No cuts, no butts, no coconuts! How do you best take care of business today when you're squatting from a suitcase at Mom's while awaiting a possible job offer from a friend's company? You're a parent and you've just caught your child in a lie. What do you do? What's our advice for dealing with conversational narcissists? How do you add value for people in your network when you don't feel like you're bringing anything to the table? What's the way forward when a juvenile criminal record and a dysfunctional family keep you from achieving your dreams now that you've worked so hard to better yourself? How do you enjoy embracing your inner grown-up and a life with an amazing fiancée when you still have urges to revisit bachelor-era indiscretions? Where do you begin if you've never had a "passion" to pursue and it already feels too late in life to start? Recommendation of the Week: Darkest Hour Shout-outs to Mark and Stephanie whose Airbnb we enjoyed, and all the fans of our former podcast who have come to find us here on The Jordan Harbinger Show!

Gabriel Mizrahi (@GabeMizrahi) joins us for this deep dive into three surprising ways to cope with suffering that we've learned during our recent period of massive change, stress, and uncertainty. "All experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed." -The Declaration of Independence What We Discuss in This Deep Dive: The difference between suffering and pain. The three thoughts that make up the architecture of suffering. The phenomenon of meta-suffering. How much of the suffering we endure is actually under our control? The beliefs and mindsets we can adopt to manage suffering more effectively. And much more...

Ed Latimore (@EdLatimore) is a heavyweight boxer, physics major, chess nerd, survivor of Pittsburgh's public housing projects, and author of Not Caring What Other People Think Is A Superpower. "I'm so happy that I learned to like books instead of social approval." -Ed Latimore What We Discuss with Ed Latimore: What Ed Latimore learned from growing up in one of the worst environments in America. Why it's never too late to make big changes in your life -- and how to kick off the process if you're feeling resistant to making those changes. How Ed rebuilt his life from the ground up after one of his biggest defeats. Fear is a more powerful motivator than the desire to change. Why would someone who pulled Cs and Ds in high school math choose to double major in math and physics on a second try at college? 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 friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Having multiple dreams to pursue can feel like a Choose Your Own Adventure book. Do you have to settle on one page's outcome, or can you cut and paste your way to happiness? Do you really want to travel for a month with a spiteful, knife-wielding grump who begrudges the good fortune of his peers and is loath to follow the sacred A-Team pledge to "never leave a man behind" when hiking in the wilderness? How does Jordan read so much in order to prep for podcast guests? How does an immigrant struggling to understand American culture make meaningful connections in a small town? Would living in a bigger city make things easier? Can you accurately gauge whether or not someone's romantically interested in you purely by text messaging? What's the next level for a relationship between two people whose core values don't even come close to aligning? Why should the most ambitious person in a relationship be expected to make all the sacrifices? Recommendation of the Week: Voyeur Quick shoutouts to Isabelle Yong and Max Rooke!
