    Season 3, Ep. 4: How to negotiate when is the right time to retire?

    Send a text Jermaine Ee is a founder and storyteller interested in three things: how we spend our time, the work we do, and what we leave behind. His career has zigzagged across ed‑tech, logistics, toys, political campaigns, executive search, and impact projects, but the through‑line has always been the same: helping people make better decisions about their money, careers, and futures. He’s run financial‑aid workshops in low‑income high schools, built a startup to help kids confront their fear of math, and worked inside the Venture Capital & Private Equity ecosystem, studying how talent shapes enduring companies. Through Rotary and other efforts, he has helped lead humanitarian projects from Los Angeles to Colombia, Mexico, and Ukraine, working on refugee housing, medical transport, and frontline logistics. Today, Jermaine spends most of his time on HeirLight, a simple and smart will maker designed to turn one of adulthood’s most avoided tasks into a fast, modern, emotionally intelligent experience. Born in Los Angeles and raised between LA and Malaysia, he thinks a lot about belonging, identity, and the quiet instructions we leave behind for the people we love HeirLight  www.heirlight.com/en/podcast | jermaine@heirlight.com | 6266737916 Sign up for one of our negotiation courses at ShikinaNegotiationAcademy.com Thanks for listening to Negotiation with Alice!

    Send a text Manisha Patel is known for combining deep legal expertise with a calm, practical, and compassionate approach that helps clients make good decisions in some of the most stressful moments of their lives. As a collaborative family law attorney, certified mediator, and founder of a boutique family law firm in Greensboro, North Carolina, Manisha focuses on helping families navigate separation, divorce, and co-parenting with less conflict and more clarity, using collaborative law and mediation to keep people out of courtroom battles whenever possible. She is an elected Councilor to the North Carolina State Bar and past President of the Greensboro Bar Association, as well as a longtime leader in organizations that support women in the legal profession, pro bono service, and lawyer wellness. Her new book, End Your Marriage Peacefully: Your Guide to Successful Collaborative Divorce in North Carolina launches in 2026. | After over eight years in private practice, I left a secure job to open my solo family law firm in 2018. I decided I wanted to practice family law with a client/relationship centered focus and truly help families. I eventually shifted the majority of my practice from traditional litigation to alternative dispute resolution (ADR). I truly feel that through ADR and collaborative family law specifically, I am helping families navigate the transition period and ultimately restructuring how their families function on the day to day. | Law Office of Manisha P.
