Hello, my beautiful beans and welcome to the episode of today. So today I want to be focusing on

manipulation, but more than just talking about manipulation, I want to give you specifically

0:11.3

five ways that you can become harder to manipulate. So basically you make it more difficult for

other people to manipulate you. You put yourself in more of a position of power.
