Jefferson Fisher

Hi, I’m Jefferson.

I’m a Texas board certified personal injury attorney.

In 2022, I began making videos of my practical communication tips to help people argue less and talk more. I recorded them the same way as I do today—in my car, in between hearings or after work.

Today, I'm one of the most respected voices on communication and arguments in the world. Millions of people and some of the world's leading brands come to me for advice and practical strategies to communicate more effectively.

I have a podcast called, The Jefferson Fisher Podcast, and I wrote a book called The Next Conversation.

Alyssa Palombo

My name is Alyssa Palombo, and I am a writer living and working in Buffalo, NY. I attended Canisius College in Buffalo, where I majored in English and creative writing with a minor in music. I’m a classically trained mezzo-soprano who also dabbles in playing piano. When not writing, I can usually be found reading, hanging out and laughing way too hard at nonsensical inside jokes with friends, traveling (or dreaming of my next travel destination), at a concert, or planning for next Halloween. I’m a metalhead and a self-proclaimed French fry connoisseur. I also own way too many hoodies, pairs of sunglasses, and pajamas, but never enough books.

I am the author of four historical novels, The Violinist of Venice, The Most Beautiful Woman in Flore

Born Françoise Quoirez, Sagan grew up in a French Catholic, bourgeois family. She was an independent thinker and avid reader as a young girl, and upon failing her examinations for continuing at the Sorbonne, she became a writer.
