About this episode

When you think how much your smartphone costs to buy and maintain, it’s a smart idea to try to make it last as long as possible. This episode begins with some simple ways to extend the life of your phone and battery. https://www.popsci.com/diy/how-to-make-your-phone-last-longer/

Some of the very best and most successful ideas are the result of lateral thinking. Uber and Airbnb are two examples and there are many more that you will hear from my guest Paul Sloane. Paul is a recognized authority on innovation and creativity and author of several books including Lateral Thinking for Every Day: Extraordinary Solutions to Ordinary Problems (https://amzn.to/3Nl5ynz). If you could use a new way to solve problems and look for solutions, you need to hear what Paul has to say. 

Do you ever avoid certain conversations because it is just not worth it? Or ever find yourself in a conversation that is going nowhere or disintegrates into an argument? It happens to all of us. However, there are ways to have those conversations and control them in a way that is actually productive and leaves people feeling heard. That is what Sam Horn is here to discuss. Sam is founder of Tongue Fu! Training Institute (https://www.tonguefu.com/) that promotes stronger communication in corporations, government agencies, schools, and nonprofits. She is also the author of the book Talking on Eggshells: Soft Skills for Hard Conversations (https://amzn.to/45SbYBT).
