In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with world renown psychologist, Dr. George Simon, who has spent decades understanding and dealing with character-impaired personalities. His best-selling book In Sheep’s Clothing just celebrated its 28th year in print. In this interview, Dr. Simon shares his insights on those people who can suck you dry and sap the joy of life out of you. These people subtly prey on your weaknesses and use clever tactics to gain an advantage over you. These people are underhanded, backstabbing, deceptive and conniving. They may work with you, associate with you, or even live with you. They fight hard for what they want, but they want to conceal their aggressive intentions. They can destroy your life and your career. Find out how to defeat manipulators and regain your sanity.
