“How to Change Someone’s Mind”

You can win an argument, or you can change someone’s mind—but make no mistake: they are not the same thing. 

You might win an argument by shouting people down and having the last word, but you won’t bring them around to your way of thinking. Worse, it might also cost you your closest friendships and family ties. 

Changing minds, on the other hand, requires a different style of communication—one that relies on practicing mindfulness and grace. The result? Healthier, more harmonious relationships and maybe a few altered opinions. 

Podcaster, TV personality, and radio host Mike Slater will show how changing the way you relate to people you disagree with may encourage them to change the way they think. No matter where you stand on today’s hot-button issues, you’ll learn how to persuade others and heal the fraught relationships in your life. 

Mike Slater is a podcaster and host of the Breitbart News Daily show on Sirius XM/Patriot. He is the author of the book How to Change Someone’s Mind and the children’s book, Imagine Jack and the History Kids. 

With a degree in history from Yale University, Mike is a frequent guest on MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, Fox Business, and The Dr. Drew Show on HLN. He was recently named one of the Top 5 "Young Guns" of Talk Radio.
