Where you are right now
Mediation is on the calendar, and you already know how it goes with this person. They interrupt. They twist your words. They push for an answer before you have had time to think. In the past, you gave in just to make it stop, and then lay awake afterward wondering how you agreed to that.
“I have court-ordered mediation coming up with a narcissist.”
“I’ve tried to find a peaceful way forward and nothing has worked.”
“I just want trial to get here so I can have my life back.”
“Every time I ask for something, I end up giving more away.”
What you want instead
Most people lose to a narcissist in negotiation for one reason: they never clearly ask for what they want. You want to know exactly what you are asking for, stay steady under pressure, and stop handing over control with a single sentence. You want to leave the room proud of how you held yourself.
What’s included
Part 1: Set the Stage. Sincere empathy and active listening, used on purpose.
Part 2: Focus on Who You Are, Not What You Want. Negotiate from identity, not desperation.
Part 3: Become and Stay Steadfast. Hold your ground when you are pressured.
Part 4: What Not to Say. The phrases that hand over control, and how to know if you are winning.
Part 5: A “Fair” Settlement. Why splitting everything down the middle can shortchange you.
Part 6: Pause (and Breathe). Refuse to be rushed into a deal before you are ready.
Part 7: What to Say. Calibrated “how” and “what” questions for custody, finances and exchanges.
Part 8: Negotiation Tactics and Types of Negotiators. Recognize what is happening across the table.
Part 9: Black Swans and Leverage. Look for the hidden information that changes a negotiation.
Part 10: Creating Your Wants List. Your hard lines, non-monetary items and creative options, in writing.
The tools. A video for each part, an illustrated course book with “Try it!” practices and “Advance It!” next steps, My Wants Sheet and a one-page cheat sheet to keep close.
The techniques draw on the work of former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss, tailored to custody and divorce disputes with a narcissist.
How you’ll feel
You walk into mediation with your Wants Sheet in hand. When the pressure comes, you pause, breathe and ask a calibrated question instead of defending yourself. You feel:
calm, and the steady one at the table
clear about your hard lines and your options
proud of how you spoke for yourself and your children
Why it’s worth $2,260
What you agree to in mediation can shape your finances, your schedule and your children’s lives for years. One rushed concession can cost more than this course. Going in with a plan, a practiced voice and a written wants list is one of the most practical investments you can make before you sit down.
