Summary
Jordan (@JordanHarbinger) and Jason (@jpdef) are back to banter every week and take your comments and questions for Feedback Friday on The Jordan Harbinger Show!
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:- How do you stop yourself from freezing up when it's time for a difficult conversation -- or sugar-coating the point you're trying to make beyond recognition?
- How can you change the atmosphere from just hanging out with a friend to a date?
- You're improving yourself while your friends are content to get high and play video games all day. Can you help them up, or will they just drag you down?
- Do your friends really want to be friends with you?
- Should you accept the life-changing dream job offer even though it's just seasonal, or stick with the job you hate until you can finish college?
- If you've been self-employed for most of your life, how do you make the transition to working for others -- especially when you're your only solid reference?
- When you're the soft-spoken one in the group, how can you assert enough presence to remain visible and part of the conversation?
- You and your friend started a project years ago, and he's since slacked in his responsibilities despite repeated promises to resume. How can you outsource his job -- or get him to take his job seriously -- without offending him?
- Recommendation of the Week: Tickled
- Quick shoutouts to the San Francisco CastBox team and Steve Davis!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host Jordan Harbinger. I'm here with producer Jason |
| 0:04.4 | to Philipo here on the Jordan Harbinger show. We love having conversations with our fascinating |
| 0:08.7 | guests. And this week we had Ryan Holiday talking about how to solve for what you want in life. |
| 0:13.6 | Is a guy who seemingly just figured out what he wanted to do right away and ended up doing it |
| 0:18.1 | at a young age. Amazing. But that's not quite the whole story. So we got the whole story from him |
| 0:21.8 | there. And Fab Morvan. He is half of Millie Vanilley and we go through the rise in the fall and |
| 0:27.6 | the mindsets that it takes to survive something is publicly humiliating and traumatizing as what |
| 0:32.8 | happened to him. Of course, our primary mission is to pass along there and our experiences and insights |
| 0:38.8 | to you. In other words, the real purpose of this show is to have conversations directly with you. |
| 0:43.4 | And that's what we're going to do today here on Feedback Friday. You can reach us at Friday |
| 0:48.0 | at Jordan Harbinger.com. So Jason, what's going on? I was in New York for 11 days. I come back and |
| 0:52.8 | we are download numbers or through the roof because of all the media that we're dealing. So thanks |
| 0:58.9 | to everyone who's coming back. But now we have a work cut out for us. Man, we got to impress |
| 1:03.1 | a lot more people. Yeah, man, I missed you. I hate when you go on those vacations. It's no fun |
| 1:07.2 | around here. Oh, yeah. Nobody to talk to. Huh? Just nobody to talk to sitting in the garage, |
| 1:12.1 | working on audio all by. Editing away. Yeah. Edit, edit, edit. That's what we do around here. When |
| 1:18.3 | Jordan is gone to play, but man, you've been killing it. How many shows have you been on since we |
| 1:22.4 | started this now? 75 in sane in four months. You are a machine. That's almost one every day. Yeah, |
| 1:30.4 | it's every day except for the Saturdays Sunday, basically. Oh, man. And then there are people that |
| 1:35.6 | can't even get on like one or two shows and you're out there doing 75 in the few months that we've |
| 1:39.8 | been doing this. That is the power of a good network in action right there, people. That's true. |
| 1:44.7 | I hadn't thought about that. I had not thought about that. Speaking of networking, let's teach |
