Allison Jones – Measure Twice, Cut Once

Allison Jones – Measure Twice, Cut Once: Navigating Negativity in Toxic Relationships

Aired Wednesday, February 3, 2021 at 5:00 PM PST / 8:00 PM EST

When I was growing up, I showed an affinity for electronics and all things electrical. Woodworking and carpentry were foreign to me and as a result, one of the classes I did poorly in was “wood shop.” I do remember the shop teacher emphasizing a series of rules and principles. The one that he impressed upon us was, “measure twice, cut once.” This admonition was, to avoid errors and waste, be sure of your measurement before cutting the wood. It was sound and practical advice. May this advice also apply to our life choices including careers, associations, and relationships?

My guest this week on Destination Unlimited, Allison Jones, says that when it comes to all our interpersonal engagements, we should “measure twice, cut once!” Allison Jones is a southside Chicago native who joined the military after high school and traveled the country as a federal contractor and subject matter expert in human resources, business development and federal personnel programs. She was the on-air talent for her eponymous business show on CBS AM, “The Big Talker” in Washington D.C. Allison spent a vast amount of her career mentoring and coaching many people to personal and business success and has been sought after to deliver powerful and contemporary lectures on topics that engage, empower, and inspire people to live their most genuine and happy lives. Her philosophy is, “we are here to learn who we are and what we are here to do and whatever it is, it is to be shared.” Manifestation is truly the only way to have the life you desire and Allison instructs people on how to manifest their dreams, doing so as a personal and business coach and as a professor of business in Arizona. Her website is http://theallisonjones.com/ and she joins me this week to share her story and her new book, Measure Twice, Cut Once: Navigating Negativity in Toxic Relationships.
