In this episode, we cover:
How “I don’t want to play games, just give me your number” is itself a negotiation move
Exact scripts to deflect that request and get them to share their total compensation budget first
Why the salary range on a job post rarely equals the company’s true internal budget
The rare times it’s okay to name your number (competing offers, true peer‑to‑peer deals)
We also share stories from our week apart, including:
One of us at a wild Tulum bachelor party, the other in a surprisingly serene co‑living house in SF
Lessons from “Designing Your Life” on how to find your dream job
“Weird Wednesdays” screening of Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind: surprise gong, mystery side‑quests, and memory‑themed letters mailed anywhere in the world
A Valentine’s Day spent solo—why absence turned out to be the best reminder of what matters
Whether you’re negotiating a new role, consulting rates, or freelance gigs, you’ll walk away with the mindset and language to hold your cards close—and still build strong relationships.
