Ask any divorce attorney, police officer, or bail bondsman: Who's missing the kids' Saturday sports games because they're trying to post bail? Shockingly, it's the team moms and oftentimes, their biggest offense is a simple scratch. It's called the New Divorce Gamesmanship, and it's a tactic used to give one spouse the upper hand in child custody cases. And it happens with alarming frequency. On Tuesday's Say It With Style, we'll talk to author Janie McQueen about her new book, "Hanging on By My Fingernails: Surviving the New Divorce Gamesmanship, and How a Scratch Can Land You in Jail." We'll also talk to renowned family law expert Randy Kessler, a main contributor to the book and attorney who has handled some of the country's most high-profile, celebrity divorces. McQueen and Kessler will talk about the ploy AND tell you how you can avoid being set up.

If you’re like most people, too many to count. Toddlers have no problem saying “No”, and teenagers live to say it to their parents. So, why do so many adults have a hard time saying it? Whatever your reason, it’s time to get over feeling dirty about that two letter word. On Wednesday’s show, I'll talk to two women who’ll teach us how to say no without the guilt. My guests will be Dr. Robyn Odegaard (aka Doc Robyn), owner of the speaking/consulting business Champion Performance Development, the founder of the Stop The Drama! Campaign and the author of the book Stop The Drama! The ultimate guide to female teams.  Joining us will be Jodi Smith, an etiquette advocate and President of Mannersmith, an etiquette consulting firm that helps organizations, corporations, educational institutions and individuals mind their manners.

If you’re a business owner, 2012 is going to be YOUR year, right? The year you reach every one of your goals and finally attain the financial freedom you’ve been working for, right? Nope. Not unless you start charging what you’re worth and stop giving away your expertise for free. On Wednesday’s show, I’ll talk to two small business owners who literally wrote the book on how to draw the line between “FREE” and “PAID” in your business. Becky McCray and Sheila Scarborough, of TourismCurrents.com, will show us how to address those subtle inquiries from people who want to benefit from your expertise and advice without having to pay for it.

If you’ve ever had a job where you had to rely on cold calling prospects, you know why. Calling strangers to pitch your products or services can be intimidating for most people, because they fear rejection. But what if I told you that fear is not about being rejected, but rather, how you communicate with yourself? On this show, Connie Kadansky, International Sales Trainer, Coach and President of Exceptional Sales Performance, will show us how to overcome the fear of self-promotion and prospecting. She’ll show us that once you get over the fear and change the way you talk to yourself, cold calling can actually be easy, and dare we say…fun. Need to see it to believe it?

Did he say what I thought he said? Oh no, she didn’t! WTF?! These are just some of the thoughts that go through my head each day as I navigate the Interwebz. And I know I’m not alone. Social media is both a blessing and a curse: it allows us to reach audiences and forge relationships across the country and the globe. It gives us a feeling of community and connectedness most of us would never be able to access otherwise. And it provides endless opportunities for us to commit some of the most blatant communications faux pas—some of which might be unforgiveable. What are they? You tell me.
