The Next Conversation

Argue Less, Talk More


Strong Words

by Patricia Sanders

Millions have turned to communication guru Jefferson Fisher for help with the conversations that count. His simple, powerful, and surprisingly doable approach might just change the way you talk, argue, and connect with the people in your life.

Jefferson Fisher, a Texas-based trial attorney turned viral sensation, built a global following from the front seat of his parked pickup truck, where he began sharing practical communication tips in short, engaging videos online. He offers approachable, no-nonsense advice on how to “argue less and talk more” that resonates across generations and platforms.

The Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk More, Fisher’s first book, became a New York Times bestseller in 2025, cementing his reputation as a leading voice on the subject of modern communication. It fleshes out his three-part communication system — “say it with control, say it with confidence, say it to connect” — and shows how to apply this system in virtually any situation. Fisher offers practical tactics for approaching conflicts, and much more besides: He sets out a philosophy of communication that aligns with the values of authenticity, connection, and compassion.
