Summary

This is a Fan Fav episode. Welcome to Impact Theory where I’m going for a deep dive into the art of seduction with best-selling author and expert strategist, Robert Greene. Known for his profound understanding of human nature, Greene shares game-changing insights that are a game-changer in your dating approach and what women will find attractive about you. In this episode, we're breaking down the barriers that hold many men back in their romantic pursuits. We're challenging the "nice guy" stereotype and embracing the power of strategic moves, artful authenticity, and the courage to be vulnerable. Greene says, "Seduction involves the desire to lose control." It's time to step out of your analytical mindset and tune into the woman you desire and dare to be vulnerable. Discover why Robert believes that flirtation is more about the looks you give than the words you use. We're also exploring the power of fantasies, and unpacking the role of men in today’s society. What’s the right amount of masculine that commands power and respect without being hyper masculine and a turn off for many women? “Seduction is a language that does not involve words.” -Robert Greene By the end of this episode you’ll have a deeper understanding of seduction, attraction, and the authentic connection that women crave. Your journey to becoming irresistibly desirable starts here.
