Send us Fan MailDanny M. Goldberg is a serial entrepreneur, speaker, trainer, and author who describes himself as a recovering people-pleaser.In this episode of the Remarkable People Podcast, Danny joins David Pasqualone to explore why always trying to be “nice” can cost you confidence, identity, time, money, and respect—and how to build healthier boundaries without becoming rude, selfish, or cruel.Danny shares practical lessons from relationships, corporate America, entrepreneurship, client work, parenting, faith, and his book A Little Bit Asshole. Together, David and Danny discuss the difference between being nice and being kind, why saying no does not always need an explanation, how to handle reasonable conflict, why people often undervalue themselves, and what it means to be assertive enough to earn respect while still treating people well.One of Danny’s central ideas is simple:“The goal isn’t to be nice. The goal is to be kind. The goal is to be respected.”If you struggle with people-pleasing, weak boundaries, overexplaining, or putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own, this conversation offers practical ways to start changing that pattern.GUEST LINKSBook:https://littlebitahole.com/LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/dannymgoldberg/X / Twitter:https://twitter.com/dannymgoldbergGoldSRD:https://goldsrd.com/FULL SHOW NOTES + TRANSCRIPT:https://davidpasqualone.com/content-type-media/podcasts/the-remarkable-people-podcast/danny-goldberg-stop-people-pleasing-boundaries-respect/WATCH ON YOUTUBE:https://youtu.be/GkP2d0AX-hMThis episode includes personal stories, religious viewpoints, opinions, social commentary, and discussion of cultural issues.

We are in the fight for humanity basically right now. It is as big as it gets." ~ Mike LindellJust one month after the highly contested August 11th Minnesota primary, Mike Lindell returns to The Remarkable People Podcast to expose what really happened on election night. In this explosive September 11th interview, Mike breaks down the statistical impossibilities of the election, including 55 instances of votes counting in reverse and synchronized voting percentages across all candidates.Mike details his intense legal battle with the Minnesota Secretary of State and the Canvassing Board over a paper ballot hand-count audit. After the recount price was arbitrarily hiked to $825,000 and his request was denied by the Minnesota Supreme Court, Mike is now taking his case directly to the US Supreme Court, suing the voting machine companies for operating "defective devices."This is the tip of the spear in the fight for election integrity.
