大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
上期我们聊了什么人适合吃辣，什么人不适合吃辣。那今天我们继续来聊一聊吃辣的时候要注意什么。
主持人：所以最后左医生能不能给我们总结一下，您这有没有比如说几条建议，比如吃辣的一些原则，帮助大家更好地吃辣，更科学更安全地吃辣？
左医生：那我们辣椒呢，又分干辣椒和鲜辣椒。那鲜辣椒的话当成蔬菜吃我觉得还是不错的，干辣椒呢，您当成调味品来吃，它里面的辣椒素都有的，都有一定的作用啊，包括对我们减肥啊促进代谢、祛湿都有一定的作用，你只要掌握好度就好。还有就是一种泡辣椒。泡辣椒的话能够去腥提鲜，像我们四川的一些鱼香肉丝啊，炒一些鸭肠啊那种下水都会用到泡辣椒，因为它提鲜。再一个呢，它呢有一定的益生菌，对调节肠道有一定的好处。但是它腌制的话，随着腌制时间的增加营养素会有所降低，还有一个盐分太高，那有高血压的人群的话，这种腌辣椒泡辣椒，真的是要少吃啊，真的是要少吃。还有我们吃辣椒的时候有技巧的，因为吃辣椒你觉得特别辣，我怎么来缓解呢？我也看过很多的报道包括我自己就试过，你这时候喝点茶不管用啊，你吃块冰块含块冰也不管用，那怎么办呢？像我们四川吃麻辣火锅的时候标配是什么呢？豆奶，尤其是凉的豆奶，或者是北方如果没有这种的话，你可以喝点冰的牛奶呀或者冰淇淋啊等等，或者是您家有点稀饭放凉了，您放在那儿，它其实对我们缓解这个辣都有一定的益处。
主持人：好，那再次谢谢左医生。
你喜欢吃哪种辣椒呢？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

吃辣的时候要注意什么？ What should we pay attention to when eating spicy food? （Advanced level）

Recently, I coached a team of four – 2 talented software developers, a product manager, and a product designer – at a startup facing a decision. Their current product management system was a mix of spreadsheets, emails, and sticky notes, hindering collaboration and development. They needed to persuade their founder to adopt Jira, a project management tool.

We began by dissecting the founder's viewpoint.  Was it a fear of change? A concern about learning a new system?  Through open-ended questions and active listening, we discovered the founder valued efficiency and transparency.

The team knew the founder's needs and wants so we crafted a persuasive narrative.  The developers highlighted how Jira's bug tracking system would streamline communication and expedite fixes. The product manager showcased how Jira's visual boards would enhance project visibility, ensuring everyone was on the same page.  The designer emphasized the improved user interface and workflows, promoting user adoption.

We gathered data showcasing the wasted time and communication breakdowns caused by their current system. We contrasted it with quantifiable benefits of Jira – faster development cycles, improved team collaboration, and reduced errors.  

We set up a demo of Jira, showcasing how it addressed their specific pain points. I prepped the team to answer potential objections and provide examples of companies using Jira.

The final step was a unified presentation.  Each team member presented their department's perspective, painting a clear picture of the benefits across the development workflow. 

The founder, impressed by the team's research, data, and collaborative effort, agreed to a Jira trial.  Their persuasive communication, grounded in understanding their audience's needs and presenting a clear solution, secured a win for the entire team. This success story highlights the power of effective communication in driving positive change within a startup environment.
