Summary

Time for Fan Mail Friday, where we'll be answering your questions and dropping some knowledge and feedback to help you kick the weekend off right. Let's cut to it! In this episode: Do you know anybody who's a jack of all trades? Gabriel Mizrahi joins us, and he's a jack of one trade -- which may seem underachieving to some, but let's be honest: it's still better than being a jack of no trades. When making cuts to your circle of friends, how do you discern between toxic people who take advantage of your good nature and real friends who are simply in a bad place and need your help? [Related: How to Cut Toxic People out of Your Life] The details of your sexual orientation seem to have a record of stalling promotion once discovered by your higher-ups; how do you stay true to yourself without hurting your career prospects? [Related: Neal Brennan | 3 Mics (Episode 601)] How do you convey warmth to others when you have a resting angry/serious face? How do you deal with the fallout when your business partner turns out to be untrustworthy -- in a way that doesn't damage your own reputation? Shoutouts to Janie the offshore oil rigger and Chris in Antarctica! Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at [email protected]!

0:00.0	Welcome to the Art of Charm. I'm your host Jordan Harbinger. I'm here with my buddy Gabriel.
0:13.6	Hey Jordan. Gabriel Mizrahi, screenwriter. BFF.
0:17.2	Jack of Ultra. No, not quite. Not quite Jack. Jack of One Trick.
0:23.6	That's literally what I've become. That would be a great name for the show Jack of One Trick.
0:29.0	Jack of One Trick is an awesome turn of trades. It's a band name too.
0:31.7	Is it that? Oh, it would be a good name. It would be a good one. Yeah.
0:34.6	One trade. Don't play an instrument. So I'm going to have to work that in some.
0:38.0	Wow. I love it. Anyway, here at AOC, we may not have all the answers, but we certainly
0:42.4	have some of the questions. And today on Fan Mill Friday, those questions come from you.
0:47.1	If it's your first time to AOC Fan Mill Friday, it's a sample of how we operate at AOC,
0:51.4	but by no means of full helping of all our show has to offer. Listener interaction is
0:55.7	one of my favorite parts of the show without you even have no show. But our typical content
1:00.0	is more in depth. It's longer format. We interview top performers in their field. We work
1:04.5	to unpack their methods, theories, harder and insights. And these are people that you
1:08.2	either know or should know. And we use a longer format to help you understand what processes
1:12.3	or steps they used, which help them become successful. Then we distill those concepts to
1:17.1	help you apply them to your life. And by the way, that bit right there was written by
1:20.3	a listener. So when people hear me do script stuff and they're like, oh, this is awful.
1:24.4	I just say rewrite it. And sometimes they do. And that's why we have all this. That's
1:28.2	awesome. Yeah, it's really cool. I always appreciate that because I'm not good at
1:32.2	necessarily scripting some of this. And I usually just wing a lot of it for a great place
1:35.7	to start. Check out some of our most popular episodes at the art of charm.com where you
