How to Stay Unshakable When the Pressure Hits

Ever felt your pulse quicken mid-negotiation? That moment when your brain fogs, your ego flares, and logic slips through your fingers?

In this episode, Tim reveals the hidden emotional mechanics behind staying cool when the stakes are high. You’ll discover how elite negotiators keep their composure, turn tension into clarity, and transform pressure into power — even when everything’s on the line.

If you’ve ever lost a deal because you reacted instead of responded… this one’s for you.

Learn how to master your emotions before they master you — and walk away from the table stronger than ever.
